World Tour get! However, the guitar was having some weird problem when I gave it a shot this morning, strumming intermittently without my consent. When my brother tried it later it was fine, so... we'll see. Cool drums, though!

I'm gonna play it at my friend's house once he gets it.

Meanwhile, I've been sampling L4D single-player. It's fleshed out enough that it feels like a real game, and not just multiplayer with bots, though it's still a bit...empty feeling to me. Not to mention the end-chapter assaults are hard as crap with the miserable AI backing you up. Hunters I can deal with, but Smokers constantly pulling me (and they seem to focus more on me) and Boomers spawning left and right, as well as Tanks popping up with unholy frequency (which is to say, more than once a chapter), are more of a challenge when I can't tell one of my dudes to stop what they're doing for a sec because my freaking skull's getting chomped on by roughly 20 zombies while a Smoker holds me up like a pinata. Really, Valve should've put in a quicksave in single player. It's common courtesy.

However, I did manage to rack up a few achievements to impress the ladies once I venture out into the online abyss.

I'm happy that I received an A- on my psychological profile on Richard III for Shakespeare class. Woo!

I'm happy'ish that managed to track down 5 Count Bleck remixes, and a decent Bleck/Tippi Wallpaper for my PS3. XD

As much as I loved the lemmings theme, It was time...For Count Bleck! :D

My PS3 wallpaper is a shot of the Earth rise from the moon as photographed by an Apollo (17?) mission.  I'm hopeful that we will be going back to the moon and to Mars soon.

Well, I hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving, but that is not the point of this post. What I came to say was that just yesterday I received a two-month-late birthday gift from my aunt.



F-Zero was unopened... until I opened it. To heck with collector's value, I intend to play my games.

Camp was one of the most fun things ever (besides people mixing me up with my younger sister, who is tall and who people happen to think is my twin)!!1

I'm only missing a handful of Pokémon in Pearl. Seriously. This is all I'm missing.

Mew
Lugia
Celebi
Zangoose
Jirachi
Shaymin
Arceus

Of course getting those last two are completely out of the question. Still, considering that I don't have wi-fi (or internet in general), I think I'm doing pretty darn good.

Good luck, but be warned: completing the Pokedex will leave you with an empty feeling ;)
