But he's much better now, so it's all good.

Aaaand I just got the hiccups.

Off to grab water...

Ooh, that's not good. Glad Art's feeling better, though. When do his paid days start up again (do they reset each year?)?

Makes me happy I don't live on my own yet... Because my bank account has about $8 in it for missing two weeks of work, due to the whole being up in Philly thing. My check this past Monday was a whopping $27.90

Was just heading out to get it. I'm clothed and everything.

I really have no idea how Art's work stuff works. I would presume they get reset each year or when they do shift bids (every six months), though.

That is one sucky paycheck.

I'm sorry to hear about it. Here's hoping you can find some way to get a larger one.
(You and me both. I really need a job... of course, I also need a way to get to said job, since I don't think my dad is paying insurance on the car he left me with.

)

Off to the front desk I go.

Yes, I do now. I was asked to verify my apartment number and all that jazz, because it was in Jami's name and they didn't leave an apartment number on the package.

But no matter, as it is now in my possession.

Will we be going back up this weekend to deliver it, or mailing it up?

In other news, I think I may want to play some video games. Specifically, I want to play either some more Crystal Chronicles, or/and some more Paper Mario. Or maybe Guitar Hero. Or maybe I should try to improve my Age of Kings or Starcraft gaming (lack of) skills. *sigh* Decisions, decisions.

Okay... so now I'm down to this: dig out and plug in the Xbox 360 and play GHII, or pop a disc into the Wii?

**Tallahassee** · 08-14-2007, 07:32 PM

GH. That's what I'm thinking about doing.

I kinda was, too. The whole thing is stashed into Art's suitcase, though. Ah well.

I wish we had online two player capability.

Rock Band, for the win. And for the lotsamoney.

Now my next question... where do those six 1/4" plugs go?!

*pulls out tv unit to investigate*

You said it! I hope the next one's better, though my hours haven't exactly been very satisfactory. I work part-time, and I like to get about 20-25 hours per week... This two-week schedule has 32 overall

Wait... Six?

I'm about to watch Superman Returns. About time I got around to it... It's only been out for, what, at least six months?

Yes, six. We have an HDTV. Anyhow, I got it set up.

That is a fantastic movie. Art and I watched it when it was in theaters. You will enjoy it muchly.

Anyone else find "easy" on GH2 to be mind-numbingly boring? I've been playing it for awhile, usually in two-player with Art (holding a normal controller), but I'd never made my own "band" on the game. I just did, and I'm just bored so much by playing these songs I can play on medium that I'm messing up a boatload of notes.

I kind of want to play this on easy with a normal Xbox controller...

Step it up to expert.

On an xbox controller, sure! Not on this fake guitar that sucks crap and doesn't pick up 1/10 of my strums.

I don't have any problems with it.[/smug]

Shaddup.

Ah well, I got 5 stars and a 94% on Strutter, so I guess it doesn't matter much.

I just need to beat two more songs, then four, and then I'll be in marginally more challenging waters.

Okay. I have to go play now. I think I'll play 1 though. And then maybe 2.

Good job!

I can't say I'd mind an HDTV and an Xbox 360. It's unfortunate that there isn't a GH for regular Xbox.

Awesome, makes me happier to be watching it as I type! [/QUOTE]

Hey, Artchel, guess what? I have a suprising and downright earth-shattering announcement to make at this juncture:

I have nothing to say except a token greeting:

Hi.
