and so another july 4th comes and goes
fantastic day yesterday. did nothing but clean, sip coffee, and buy silly items from borders. in fact, i almost forgot it was a holiday (something i do frequently, really).
now, i'm not one to usually buy magazines, since i tend to consider them a waste of money. but after nearly a month of deliberating and the realization that borders only had one copy left yesterday, i bought the last issue of nintendo power. why, you ask? interestingly, it wasn't because of the cardboard pokemon that you can build (even though i am excited about that). it was because its cover was graced with images from kingdom hearts: 358/2 days. come to find out, when i opened it, there was a similarly massive article on muramasa: the demon blade. both are slated to come out in 'fall 2009', though i think muramasa has a more definite date of 'september'. despite the fact that i'm starting classes in grad school and will be looking for a job around that time, i just know i will be obsessed with at least one of those games, if not both. though... since i won't actually have a wii in virginia, i suppose i won't have the privilege of playing muramasa when it comes out.
in other news, my car sounds like she's about to die. i feel very guilty about the whole thing, because i definitely could have put a little bit more time and money into the upkeep. dad suggested that she's acting up because i'm leaving; y'know, breaking the whole symbiotic car-human bond. i am inclined to agree. however, i am hoping to bring her to a car hospital tomorrow morning (aka aamco).
