Somehow I knew this was coming...

Smile: CAGE MATCH starting at around 6pm. Starting with FACEOFF, and for dinner I'm making chicken stuffed pork, and pork stuffed chicken (too bad I won't be eating). I'm attempting to make lime jello balls for THE ROCK. Hopefully they turn out well.

Until then, I'll be playing Nintendo outside again. Gorgeous outside.



I have three more crt's in my shed, so I'm thinking about maybe setting up four outdoor stations if I get enough of my friends interested.

It cracks me up that you do that, Luke. I don't even play my handhelds outside.

On the rare occasion it's nice enough to play my handhelds outside, I can't see anything because the sun reflects off the screen. I even tried to play my Vita outside this morning (my house was freezing, but its pretty warm outside) and couldnt see a thing.

I absolutely love it. My dog Ripley gets to take a nap in the grass, there's a gentle Spring breeze in the air, birds are at the bird feeders, it's ever so relaxing. PLus, it's probably the only way I'll ever get a suntan.

The RCA only weighs around sixty pounds, so it's easy to carry fifteen yards or so without hassle. Glare really isn't an issue either.

I know it may seem silly, but I'm silly.

In case you didn't check my game room thread:

And hey, I say "Friggin'"!



Few things I missed:

You need a key to unlock the door to the third floor
Forgot to show the attic
Failed to apologize for my tv stand
Didn't mention the specs of my tv
Didn't open the secret drawer in my poker table
Didn't mention the fact the table and ash tray are art deco pieces from the 20's.
..and other stuff.


edit* That other stuff would include how I hate how cluttered the room is, how I can't wait to get decent shelving, and how I wish I could better allocate the space I have.

It's not silly, I used to do this when I was younger. Back when I owned televisions that were much more portable.

: The local comic book store is closing and I am appropriately devastated. After 23 years the owner is worn out and closing shop. No longer will I be able to go through the boxes upon boxes of back issues, peruse the 12-ft wall stuffed with new issues or gaze upon walls filled to the brim with random action figures and nick-knacks. He has said he's going to open an online store and offer free shipping, but it's just not going to be the same

: After months of languishing in pinned-up incompletion on the floor, Mom and I have finally finished the Kirby block for my NES quilt.


Fly, you little pink puff ball! Fly, I say!

She's now currently working on Donkey Kong. I'm very excited

Smile: CAGE MATCH was pretty great. But, how could it not have been great?

Frown: Around midnight we decided to move the party to another house to play rock band.

I should have stayed home.

We're all having fun, creating a bit of a ruckus, but everyone was behaving well. We start "playing" rock band, and by playing I mean taking twenty minutes of scrolling through songs to pick one that everyone could agree on (sentence ended with a preposition). Ugh.

There's this girl, I'll call her fat Heather because she is fat and her name is Heather, who is a complete stick in the mud. Fat Heather and I used to be great friends, used to be. She's no fun, at all, and she has a banana or something stuck up her ass at all times. She constantly spews unnecessary snide remarks about anything that isn't lower-middle class.

Example: My pal "Pringles" wore a button upped shirt, tucked in with a nice pair of loafers (and pants of course). Fat Heather's first words upon seeing him were "The hell you all dressed up for?". That question didn't needed to be asked. And how rude. Fat Heather also gives me shit for being "Upper class", which I am not. What irks me the most is that fat Heather seems to believe that I simply found a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow and didn't have to work my tuckus off to achieve the success that I have attained.

So Fat Heather ruined rock band for everyone. The game is supposed to be fun, no? But for Fat Heather it is a competition. And despite me getting a 99% on the one track I provided the vocals for, the entire time fat Heather was bitching "You can't sing for shit. ANDY! ANDY! Come 'ere and sing, Luke can't sing!".

Eh, it's a silly thing to get upset about, but I hate being around someone who puts out so much vile energy. As P.Shore would say, she really, really harshes my vibe. That, and all she does is smoke pot, smoke cigarettes, and constantly complains. No wonder she works at Cracker Barrel, she's a perfect fit.
