This is how I feel about people who dislike the Nintendo 64.

Smile: Evil co-worker is leaving our company. I can get along and work with almost anyone, but she was a huge exception. Past tense. Lol.

Smile #2: Pinball Hall of Fame this weekend in Vegas!

Frown: I've got way too much work to be training on the side.

speaking of the Pixies, talk about anti-climactic... their first album since 1991 comes out next month, and it's just what we all (should have) figured it was going to be: a collection of the 3 recent EP's. So if you already got EP 1 & 2, just download 3 today, burn them to a disc and you've got the new album.

:D A lady emailed me this morning saying she wanted to sell some old game boxes and didnt want to recycle them and left me a number to text. I replied and she sent me a bunh of pics of N64, SNES, and Gameboy boxes. Ogre Battle 64, Secret of Mana, Lufia II, many of the Pokemons etc. 50-60 in total. I asked how much she wants and said just $20 :shock:

I thought it might be another collector trolling me, but sh offered me to call, and it is just some lady cleaning out her attic. So I have been trying to call my wife and sister to wake them up to meet her, as she lives right down the dtreet from my house. I may have to slip outta here once traffic dies down if they wont wake up.

What was that number again? *has enough gas to race to Houston*

Wait, no. Nevermind. Even for all that, I don't want to be in Houston.

Smile: Day 2 of my week off before I start work with Rackspace next week. Being unemployed is WAY more fun when I'm just jerking around before starting a new job. The last time I was unemployed courtesy of a pink slip wasn't terribly enjoyable.

Frown: I've gotten behind on my shipping so that's going to eat up a couple hours.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

:P : Going to try and clean up the collection a bit. It's getting to be pretty messy again and I have ran out of space on my PS2 shelf :P.

:? : Handling a Craigslist deal at the house today for my Dad. Really don't like him giving our address to strangers or doing sales alone out here in the middle of nowhere. My dad has a tendency to sell junk and I know nothing about the item this guy is coming to pick up if things go sour this is going to be really awkward. :roll:

Along with 100,000 other people, so you're more or less hidden in plain sight.

I'm just saying, a random stranger on Craigslist isn't really different from a random stranger picking your name out of the phone booth and plugging you because you share your name with the mother of the leader of the resistance.
