Wind Woken and Some Time in Hospital

So I spent about 4 days in hospital this month with now my 5th bout of pancreantitis. Don't know much about it? I'll save you the trouble of googling it then. It hurts in your gut and gets worse when you eat and drink. You cure it by not eating and drinking for about 3-4 days allowing pancreas to rest and become less inflamed while enjoying the wonderful meal of IV fluid. Eventually they move to clear liquid diet, see how things go and you'll either move up in diet type or go back down depending on pain. In this case they rushed me and actually released me with pain still so I went for about another two weeks before it finally went away.

On a better note I beat Wind Waker which I had mentioned in previous post sort of frustrated me. In hindsight I did find the fish in each section of the map do help you with a lot of info although it is a tedius task among others in this game. Some spoilers here for thid old game but after defeating the Wind and Earth temple I thought for sure I was going to kick some Gannon butt just to be told by The King of Red Lions that I now have to assemble the Triforce of Courage. The wosrt part of that is that is all your told, no really I just played the thing he tells you nothing about how to do this, where to start, zero information. So naturally you have to hunt down 8 charts that show the locations of the shards. Not-so pr tip: be sure to have the largest wallet before you ever get to this part. I did not and it cost a whopping 3184 rupees to get the charts translated. I had to grind out 2000+ of that which did not go very quickly as you might imagine but I did it. Finally I fished out the triforce shards rather quickly only having major problems in onearea with 5 sharks but I left it and wend back to it later and for some reason they were not there making it a satisfying finish to the hunt. I then proceeded to go through the entire task of taking out the many forms of Gannon/Gannondorf in one shot. Boom. Most shocking to me in all of this and don't read this if you don't want to know, Links finishing move which in a very unNintendo-like move Link jumps in the air and stabs Gannondorf right in the skull. There is no blood or anything but for a game that probably had more humor in it than any previous Zelda game by far it was not expected. All and all despite my complaints I really liked this game a lot, far more than I expected.
