Good Couple of Days
So far this week, life is treating me pretty well. I have food. I have new video games, and work is moving in a positive direction that doesn’t involve me getting fed up. That’s the short of it. The long of it…
To begin, it had been two months since I had last gone grocery shopping. When I mean serious, I mean heading to Costco to stalk up as if a war was coming. I had picked up milk and other such perishables as they had run out. But I hadn’t gone major shopping. And that was what Tuesday night was all about. Nicole and I hit up Costco for some major food purchasing. I made out pretty well, and I had a great time. For some reason, I really love taking trips to Costco with Nicole. There’s something about discussing food with her that is just awesome. (Plus we amuse ourselves pretty well making funny comments about various products)
Tuesday, before the Costco trip, I stopped by EB games and picked up a copy of New Super Mario Brothers for my DS. Hmmm…new game smell. I’m seriously getting back into gaming. It’s still ok because I’m not completely obsessed, but I’m definitely more excited about it than I have been in years. It’s actually very pleasant, seeing as how little I cared for with the last generation. I even pre-ordered three additional games. Seriously, I’ve got a list of games I want that’s hitting close to 20. Oh well, E3 has me psyched, and I can’t believe I’m saying this, I’m really looking forward to the news coming out of the Tokyo Game Show. But..WIIIIIIIII.
Finally, work is going better. I’m finally getting to move off of what I had been working on and moving to something really interesting. I was beginning to get a bit bored and wanted some real problems to tackle. It helps that a lot of the stuff I had been working on is going live and its working as easily as people had hoped. So I look good and my code looks good. Of course, I’ve got a lot of reading to do to get ready, which should be fun. But hey, that’s part of the fun.
Wow, I wasn’t expecting to write this much. I guess I had a lot more to say than I thought. Anyyyywaaayy, time for bed. I want to get up so I can run tomorrow. (That’s a post for another day) Oyasuminasai, mina-san.
