Frown: Drank too much the other day and got a massive hangover. Ouch!

Smile: Totally got confused when I was coming back to my friends apartment at like 6 in the morning and pushed the buzzer for the wrong apartment. I must have been pushing that thing for like a whole freaking minute before I realized it was the wrong one!

Lol, sucks to be whoever was on the other end of that buzzer!
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

Ticked: The huge corporation that owns the store I work in is selling it off. While my boss has told me that my job will be safe, I can only imagine things going downhill if it's sold off to a foreign company (which is apparently a big maybe). I'm worried about my wages going down, new regulations etc. I can only hope for the best I guess.

Smile: These things can take a while, so it's a problem for future me :P

Smile: Had the courage to finally start dancing classes.

Frown: I'm crap. It was easy to ignore when I didn't try to dance.

Yeah, man. Look online; I have a matrix, too and you can get a catalytic converter for like $90 plus shipping. Also, there is a sensor that screws into a port on the exhaust right after the cat, so it may be a simple fix. Is the Check Engine light on?

Smile: Local game store had black label Final Fantasy Anthology :D

Frown: It was missing the disk for V so it stayed right there :cry:

This seems to be happening a lot lately. January just must be a bad gaming month for me.
