2001.12.13 we're out for blood:
first update from home since the pc died. doing it all from the mac downstairs. i'd like to point out that blogger really isn't worth a shit and a half on internet explorer on a mac. you win some, you lose some. speaking of blogger, i just bought one of those little ads on their main page for transmission3000. so if you're really interested, go over there and reload the shit out of their page until you catch the ad. it's kinda funny. just for the record, connor came up with the slogan.
today is payday. i went out to the office, picked up my check, and shot the shit with seth for a little while. after that it was just the bank, the mall, q'doba, the record store, and then home.
"the mall?" you might ask. hells yes, the mall. i had to take back that piece of shit game max payne and try to finagle my ass into a refund. the new fascistic refund policy at electronics boutique was the only thing standing in my way (since max payne was actually purchased on a return of a previous game. i like to work the system…). i lucked out and the guy that rung me out two days ago was the one at the counter today. he's a new guy. holiday temp, i'm pretty sure. the manager was the one that pointed out the policy, and he was nowhere in sight. i was doubly lucky that he new guy had also bought max payne, returning it for the same exact reason: simply put…the game is a steaming pile of shit. i was able to "exchange" the game for a paid-in-full pre-buy of final fantasy x. so ladies and gentlemen…next week i will be playing a third game on the same dollar as my original purchase, close to two weeks ago. damn i'm good.
i almost bought the newest superchunk record, but i didn't. something must be wrong with me.
now i'm fat with fresh q'doba and i'm ready to do some serious late afternoon relaxin'…
