I have to be up semi-early tomorrow to head back to my parents' house, so I may be brief.

I had a pretty on/off pool day, because I was missing some shots that I'm normally very consistent at, but I also managed to beat my dad once, and also win a couple of the bigger games, so that was cool. Sadly, none of you crazy Eugenians has accepted my pool table challenge yet! Come on, I *DARE* you to put me in my place! (It wouldn't take much, believe me ;p)

I'll do drinkdrano a favor and plug this:

If you have a few bucks to toss around once a month, and want to expand your musical horizons, then check out buy_this_album. Otherwise, it'll be pretty boring with just the same 3 people choosing the monthly album all the time. :)

My aunt and uncle came up for dinner this evening, so we had a bigger group for dinner, and there were a lot of funny stories going around the table. Everyone also tried the wine that I brought down and gave to Judy and my grandpa for Christmas, and apparently it was a big hit. I don't know a thing about wine, so all I really had to go on was that James and I had both tried this particular kind once, and liked it. Lucky me, it all worked out nicely in the end. We had steak, baked potatoes... and *more* artichokes for dinner! Glee!

I'm working on finding a good deal on a Playstation 2--so far, I may have a line on a refurbished one for $105, which saves me nearly $70. But hey, if anyone has a source for a better deal, let me know! I've been coveting one for years! (and no, don't tell me to wait and get a PS3. Like I'm going to have *that* kind of money. ;p)

Anyway, I'm off. My next post might even be from my home! Well, unless I get bored at my parents' house tomorrow night. :)

are you guys going to be buying any rap? because unless it's something intelligent or relaxing, e.g. Faithless, it'd be EXTREMELY difficult for me to bring myself to buy it. also, too many obscure imports might make things tricky... but if it's tasteful i'd be game...

I won't tell you to wait and buy a PS3, but it might be worth your time to wait for the PS3 to come out before going for a PS2. Console prices do a serious dive once the next generation is on the market; right now, the PS2 is old, but still with life.

PS3 is on it's way already? o_0; I'd really love to know how those people who own every game console in creation manage to afford it.

Have you tried eBay?
