:D - called the guy at the store I'm switching to and he wants me there the 21st at 10pm to get everything settled....hopefully it's not to hard to get me switched over and the guy who does all the scheduling for the current store doesn't accidentally schedule me for next week. Going to be interesting but stocking may fit me better right now since I want to sleep during the day anyways for some odd reason now a days....

I won an auction for a 70pc bag of chips for Game Boy reproductions for a few dollars on Ebay, I only needed 1 for a project. :shock:

Overslept and missed the flea market on Tuesdays only. :|

Currently reorganizing my ROMs. Sorting them into separate folders for hacks, translations and so on.

At this point it's a royal mess.

i hear you on this one. it got to the point where i just account for the HD space for a full set then set favorites in an emulator later. way less work.

It's mostly just randomly released hacks and fan-translations and I just now started to sort shit out. Thinking about trying to fix everything so I can have everything on a SD card (if not a few), with emulators included. Right now, it's mostly just a DVD-R with select systems (with redundant ROMs (less recent revisions, European releases of games released in America, et al), but I'm thinking of revamping everything since the current setup isn't as efficient.

Not at all. She absolutely adores the Ghibli films, especially My Neighbor Totoro. We have watched that one so many times and it makes me incredibly happy because I remember when I was little and renting the VHS from our local video store repeatedly.

(We watch the Fox/Streamline dub of Totoro)
I love that version of Totoro. My mom got me the VHS right after it came out because Siskel and Ebert gave it two thumbs up. I watched it repeatedly and then snatched up the DVD version the second I saw it in the movie dump bin at Walmart. I've got the re-dubbed Disney version, too, but the Fox dub is still my favorite.
