On my last day in Jackson, I stopped by Misty’s house so she could drop off some leftover salad from lunch and so I could print out the boarding pass for my flight. Anyway, she got her camera out and we took some photos, and I think this is my favorite of the two of us. So, without any further ado, a pic of me and Misty…

So, I’m back from Jackson.

I have to say, it was good to get away from it all for a week. Of course, it also goes without saying that it was VERY good to spend an entire week with Misty. The fact that I had to leave was not an easy thing for either of us. Still, it was a good week, and we enjoyed ourselves. I’ll put what happened on the trip behind a cut so that those who are not interested can skip past. :-)

I was browsing around the net a little just now, winding down after my trip home from Jackson, and I came across this image. Apparently it’s the box art for a new port of Mortal Kombat: Armageddon that’s set to be released… :-)

(Yes, it’s a joke. You can find the site I used to create it here.)

Well, it’s been a great trip to Jackson, but all good things must come to an end. I’m on the plane waiting to depart… And I’m already missing Misty. I’ll have some details on the trip when I get home. For now, I’m on my way home…

Apparently the pic came out a bit clearer on my phone than it did on the actual post, as at least one person has had difficulty in telling what the game I took a picture of was. The game is called The Grid, and it’s a game the MK development team worked on between Mortal Kombat 4 and Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance. It’s a third-person shooter deathmatch style game, similar to Quake III Arena and Unreal Tournament. It’s very rare; the few people I know who have seen it were MK Online staff members who saw it at the Midway studios. I’m rather shocked I got to see it, and just had to play a round or two. It’s a bit too bad it never made it to wide release; maybe the Midway people should consider releasing it to Xbox Live Arcade…

Anyway, yes, I’m still in Jackson visiting Misty. I’ll have a full report of what I did when I get back. For now, I’m just going to get some rest as I have a bit of a long day ahead of me tomorrow. We’ll see how it goes…

Misty and I are out to see a movie. I got the shock of my life when I saw this. Hardcore MK fans will recognise it. For those who don’t, well, I’ll explain in a later post.

I’m making these posts from my phone. The following pics are of the highway behind our facility. It’s completely closed both ways due to high water.
Looks like I’m in for an interesting afternoon…
