On Fire
TV right now: Dateline NBC, To Catch a Predator
Uploaded a pair of new userpics, two new ones to MySpace. I took the plunge over the weekend at home. I bought myself a PS2. Another week without Palace to fill the dead space wasn't cutting it, so I spent just over $200 to get myself the newest "Smackdown vs. RAW" and system and memory card. I'm on my way to completing the first set of challenges, and after "Dateline," GM mode so I can have the unlimited experience. Playing through seasons for EACH created character? Ha!
I still don't have the official story, but on Monday during "Wife Swap," the fire alarm went off. Thinking nothing of it, that it must be another in a series of poorly-timed drills, I got my coat and stood just outside the exits. When a minute become 5, we all figured something was up. An RA poked his head out and told us there was a fire, that it was contained, but we needed to stay out. I've heard three versions. A, there was a fire in the cafeteria, and a water main broke that flooded some of the dining area and store below it. B, just the water main broke. C, there was a fire and the sprinklers flooded things. Whatever the case, it put me in nearby dorms' lobbies on the phone to cure the boredom. Everything down in that area but the store is back open already though.
I forgot to mention the best part about the PS2 buy. Hooking it up today, I found an audio output cord that allows me to feed the sound from all my TV activity through my computer and thus on headphones. Score!! I've been grappling with all of the sound in my dorm, and now I have the perfect volume for anything and everything in my ears. Hearing "Super Password" up close and personal was something else this afternoon. It also increases the quality of my samples from VHS tapes. Since the PC and TV are going at the same time, I became the first kid to have matches set to Journey, Steely Dan and Eric Clapton.
Watched the Shokus DVD. Pretty good. The ep. of Cullen's "Price is Right" was a treat, the "PDQ" pilot was exciting, and the rest was neither here nor there. I'd buy some of their stuff now. Well, plan is to keep playing SvR and not spend money. That's what I get for spending $200 to cure boredom. Might go to my grandma's this weekend with my dad. Might go see "No Way Out" at B-Dubs. We figure since we'll be at WM, we want to see every minute of The Road. Which reminds me, "RAW" was above decent last night.
