Christmas comes early!!!

Thank you, Erin :)

ONLY 4 MORE HOURS, AARRRGH!

I was pretty good about updating there for awhile. Not sure what happened.

I've taken pictures of the apartment. I'm going to upload them on here...I'm just not sure when.

Today is officially the longest day of work EVER. The first PSU expansion was released on Xbox Live Marketplace last night. I actually set the alarm for 5 in the morning so I could wake up and start downloading it. I got up earlier than usual this morning to hopefully check it out some before I had to go to work but the servers didn't go back up until 9am. I got to mess around for about 25 minutes or so before I had to come to work. Ugh. 6 o'clock cannot come soon enough. I'm refreshing the PSO World forums like every 5 minutes.

I also got Super Mario Galaxy last Monday. So far...its probably the best game I have ever played. Probably. I'll have to finish it and let it sink in some. Yoshi's Island is a hell of a game. I rushed through it the first few days, and I'm up to 59 stars now. However, I've since slowed down and I'm trying to...savor it more, I guess. You only get to play games this awesome for the first time once. And now that the PSU expansion is out I'll probably pop in Galaxy to get a few stars every time I need a break. I can "beat" the game at 60 stars...but I think I've decided to get all 120 stars before I head into the final battle. I think the payoff will be better that way.

Erin has created a World of Warcraft account. We got a 14-day free trial when we bought South Park Season 10 and she finally installed it a few weeks ago. I would say she is now at full-blown addiction. I kind of gave her grief about it initially (mostly jokingly) because I don't really like the game. But now I'm just glad she's found something else she likes playing. She has also gotten a job as an assistant manager at a movie theater here in Raleigh, which is cool. She seems to like it pretty well, except for a few things. It's better than Cingular was, anyway. And we can see movies for free...even if we haven't taken advantage of that yet.

With Erin working now we're just ramping up for some shopping the day after Thanksgiving and for Christmas. But I'll post more about all that later. But yeah...everything is going pretty well at the moment :)
