Geeking out

[mayhap]

I succumbed to my little brother's evil tempting and now have my very own shiny Nintendo DS Lite. Here we are:





Now I can play Tetris. And play Tetris against my brother. And ... play more Tetris. You know, there was a time in high school where, whenever I closed my eyes, I saw tetrominoes falling and I would play out entire games of Tetris in my head without even trying. Perhaps this was a bad idea.

I also discovered that we now have an actual store in town that sells actual comic books. I'd never actually seen them in the wild before! I found Sandman #50 (Ramadan), Death: The High Cost of Living #3, and Sachs & Violens #3 in the fifty-cent boxes, so now I own exactly three genuine comics. They are pretty and fragile, like butterflies. I don't know where to put them.

Finally, I offer you this picture of Bill Gates and Steve Jobs. Without comment, because nothing that I say can add to its exquisite beauty. ♥ ♥ ♥

That happened to me all the time!  ...Still does, actually.

Me too, bizarrely. I haven't played Tetris in years (I think I OD'd on it following my operation; would play it for hours until the batteries on my GameBoy Color (yeah, those things) died. Then I'd realise how numb my legs had gone and that they were blue with cold). I like Tetris.

Once again, we are secretly twins!
