Sounds like a pretty sweet day.
You have no idea... :lol:

Just about to say that even though I've never played it, I guarantee you're playing Shenmue or Shenmue II.

So as some of you know I'm attempting to quit drinking... So far, this Christmas I've gotten 4 bottles of vodka. This isn't making things easy on me. I've successfully abstained thus far (somehow), but having a fully stocked vodka cabinet is torturous for me. The urge to slug as much down as I can and binge on games for hours is almost overwhelming, but I think I'll be able to stave it off.

And yes, Shenmue, the first one...

I'd say there's no shame in regifting or trading these then. Since you've had a problem, maybe people will just assume you polished them off. If they ask, just tell them what's going on and if they are reasonable family and friends they'll understand. :)

Christmas has finally hit the eastern seaboard of the US. See NORAD's Santa-tracker to find how close he's getting to YOU.
My scheduling skills have died of dysentery; I hope to visit at least on a monthly basis.
Still, don't forget to tip your waitress.

Regifting is a damn fine idea. I'll have to consider that one, I'm the only heavy vodka drinker I know though. I'll give it to someone though, I can't have it just sitting around me.

What's really funny is that we had some sort of enchillada lazagna, weird looking but delicious nontheless.
