choke on that causality

I got two new video games - strictly for the sake of nostalgia. Diddy Kong racing for the Nintendo DS, previously released on the Nintendo 64. My friend had this game in high school, and me and all of my friends were absolutely obsessed with it. It is just one of those games that is crazy addictive when there is a group of people. I’m really excited about being able to play it online too.

Also got Final Fantasy VI for the Gameboy Advance. This was previously released as Final Fantasy III for the Super Nintendo. I have played this game sooo many times through. I still have it for Super Nintendo, and I also have enjoyed playing in on an emulator. But it’s cool cause there are supposed to be some added features, like new Espers, and a new dungeon, and bosses, and shit. I’m a little too excited about it.

I still haven’t finished Legend of Zelda. I’ve been pretty obsessed with the kitty lately, and haven’t played much Wii. I’m like that though. I’ll stop playing games for a while and then become completely reabsorbed in them for a while. So stay tuned.

The Goonies has been on several times this weekend one of the many HBO channels I get and rarely watch. It is one of those movies that I just have to watch when I see it on. It’s a classic for any child of the 80’s.

Some dumb bitch just said that on some commercial on the discovery channel. I found humor in it.

Since I have now been employed with my current company for a year, I can join the retirement and thrift plans. I am a complete dumbass when it comes to this sort of thing. I don’t know what to invest in. Last time I had to do it, I just let Mike choose them. The company will match 7% which is cool, but that seems like a lot. I hate grown up decisions like this. Like retirement doesn’t seem like a reality to me.

Lately I find myself noticing when people have wedding rings. I never used to. I don’t know how I feel about all that. Like Mike is my domestic partner or whatever…and he gets insurance now, which is cool…but I don’t get the whole marriage thing…not that we could legally or anything. Traditional things have always weirded me out.
