another wonderful birthday . it was fun, festive, and full of love. Thats not why im writing today.

My Mom got me a very awesome gift, a gift that inspired me to write.
.
.Now, ive been a gamer. For a very long time in fact...my roots in the world of gaming always have gone back to ONE blue, spikey, badass hero.

Sonic. I was 6 years old, an energetic little loud tomboy of a kid with a zaney as loud personality. We went into sears, and I brought home my first video game system. My family gave me a brief overview...and I merely put it down since.

For years I played that genesis. Then it broke, so did my heart. My sisters "fill in profanity" ex took a cord out...at that point, I had picked up a playstation. All the kids had one, the games became instantly a part of me...but  no doubt sonic was my first love.

26 years later...ive got the new classic revamped game console, with 80 built in games. the picture is normal, fits great on the screen, the sound is shotty....but the hero remains the same.

boogerman, earthworm jim, awesome oppossum, all eventually. Sonic: the same original i own on ds, ive gathered (now 4) genesis's since then, yet...this brings me back. im thrilled to be sitting here playing it!

The song is music to my ears. The new revamped sonic, and calling "Dr. Robotnik" by this ""Eggman" name just has no appeal. For the real heros pixels went so fast, he blurred as you put him on pause. He had ONE tough expression.

He, is a part of my childhood that ill never forget!
