Red Ring of Death -The Diary of my Ring- 2 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
Thursday 6/17/08:
I was playing Rainbow Six Vegas 2 online with some of my friends and then my game froze. While it was frozen and I could talk with the people in the party until the game froze 100%

Friday 6/18/08:
I was playing Call of Duty 4 with my friends cousin and after a serious PWN'ing my game froze and I turned off my 360. After turning it on again, the system froze at the beginning when the sphere started rotating. Every time I reset my 360 it got a little bit farther until it got the the end then it reset back.

Saturday 6/19/08:
I woke up early and went ahead to turn on my 360 and then... The red eye began staring at me with its demonic eyes. Burning through my soul with every second that passed, I turned off my 360.

Tuesday 6/22/08:
I went online to the Xbox support page and did all of the troubleshooting stuff and nothing worked. I called Microsoft and had to deal with an Indian dude that could barely speak English but I did it. In the end I had to send in my 360 for repair.

Wednesday 6/23/08(Current Day):
I have to call today to fill in the repair order and then send in my 360 with some papers and stuff. Now I pray that when I call this will be over quickly and I can buy GTA IV (Yes... I'm poor and I haven't been able to buy GTA IV).

Update #1:
I called Microsoft and now I have to wait 1-2 days for an e-mail with instructions on how should I send in my 360. This is the worst thing that has happened to my gaming part of life.

Note:
I will be updating this post as the days go by and I become more insane waiting for my new 360.

good luck to you man, i'll be following your topic. Here's my advice:...uh...go back and replay a good last-gen game?(assuming you have a ps2 or something still yet)or try to just improve your well being in general now that you're not "distracted" by gaming.
