What an unhappy weekend

[johnhutch]

First I injured my right wrist playing Metroid Prime in anticipation of the Nintendo Wii release. I can barely turn it! I have to use my left hand to turn my car keys. Then I missed out on getting a Wii because I thought I'd be able to get one without camping out by selectively picking more out of the way or inconspicuous stores. Then we went to Renault Winery for a reception tour and we decided it wouldn't work. It looked great, but no liquor in the room we liked (and only bottled beer) and space issues during the reception and a number of other things made it a waste of time. Well, not a waste cause now we know, but still. Then I find out I gotta dump $450 or so into my car because the tiny little exhaust joint under my car that has a hole in it can only be gotten from the dealer and I need new brakes. So while I suppose it's good that I didn't get the Wii cause I need to get these car repairs, it still sucks.

I wanna go home and play Metroid.
