"Run to the hiiiiiiiiills!"
Two weeks ago I flew down to texas to visit my family and check up on them. Much to my delight, I was received with presents that I have been missing for the past two exmases. I received an iron maiden t-shirt, the complete invader zim series (which I hadn't bought because I already had a copy waiting for me), a trip to the Witte museum to see the autopsied human bodies on display (and after years of visiting the museum as a child I got to visit the gift shop when I could finally afford something besides a soda!), delicious mex-i-can food, warm weather (instead of this horrible cold tulsan weather that i am convinced is a sign from the gods that oklahoma is not meant to be inhabited), stuffed toys from my childhood (in particular a plush felix the cat doll), the self discovery that comes from any trip anywhere (like in "crossroads", the classic britney spears movie that just missed the oscar nod), and a promise that my cousin marty would go back to jail to clean up (he looks like a skeleton's skeleton). Brothers were threatened, baby nieces were seen, and a PS3 was bought rather cheaply from a silly brother strapped for cash. I was tempted to buy super smash brothers brawl online and play in the massive tourney but I didn't have the cash or the drive. Maybe i need some encouragement from friends that have it and want to play online? Who knows.
