Slept in too long.
Made some new live journal pictures to use. Woo.
Went out to CompUSA. Bought a new modem to replace the highly excentric one that I currently have in the computer I use most of the time. Was going to buy Half-Life or Counterstrike, but they wanted $30 for either. Decided it wasn't worth $30. It's a three-year old game at least!
But! I'm supposed to go to a Counterstrike lan party Monday, with... well I don't remember who all.
miertam.
shandower.
virusfox.
flinthoof. It's at Brian's house. At the moment, I'm not even sure if I remember who Brian is, or if he knows who I am. Shandower invited me, a decision he may well live to regret....
Drove to a Half-Price Bookstore in Edmonds. No Half-Life there. Spent $17 anyway, on, let's see... illustrated children's classics King Solomon's Mines and The Secret Garden, cheap copy of Wind In The Willows to send to my nephew (one of those books every kid should own -- it should be a law), and a nice trade paperback size copy of Glinda of Oz, for my Oz collection.
Drove to Half-Price Bookstore in the University District. No Half-Life there. I miraculously escape without spending money.
Drove to Dreamstrands, my comic shop. Still open at nearly 8 pm. Loot: Usagi Yojimbo, GTO graphic novel #4, Love HIna graphic novel #5, and the latest Ranma 1/2 video. I feel like I have to keep collecting them, you know, since we're nearly at the end of the line... but man the show really went downhill after season three or four, and here in season seven it sucks nearly every episode.
Also at comic shop, I saw League of Extraordinary Gentlemen vol 2 #2 on the shelf. WHAT? That's coming out already? The comic shop guy was nice enough to dig out the last copy of vol 2 #1 from his private stack in back and sell it to me, so I got both 1 and 2. ^_^
Drove over to Fred Meyer's. They had Half Life: Blue Shift for $19.95. Although the box says "Half Life not required", I am not completely certain that I can buy this and then patch Counterstrike... so I went ahead and bought the Counterstrike box, which was $30 of course.
Darn the system! It's all a ripoff, I tell ya!
Drove to Teriyaki Stop. Got Teryiaki chicken with brocoli stir-fry.
Came home. Watched America's Most Wanted. Ate dinner, vegiatated in front of television.
