ego pecunium non habet? Ita vero..

Sara- I'm afraid "vague" doesn't cut it around here. *readies pitchfork*

Shin- They're to scale, too. The white one is four inches smaller than the yellow one.

John- That commercial freaked me out so badly when it came out, that I refuse to view it now. And goatse doesn't bother me.

So yeah, I'm broke now.

Ever since I acquired a few gift cards for Christmas, I've been trying to make a grand orchestral tapestry out of my using them, optimizing every dollar to reach complete awesomeness.

Tonight, thanks to my impatience and Gamestop's buy-two-get-one-free sale, that sort of went out the window, as I bought the three games listed above.

Disgaea I sort of hid in the back of the used bins so I could keep it for myself until I figured out how I was going to blow my gift cards. Metal Gear, I've been planning on getting as soon as I could find a copy.

I was going to get Killer 7 or Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines (that is such an awkward title), but it was decided that my mom would beat my dad's ass with a comical rolling pin if he let me, so after finding a random third game (Harmony of Dissonance, which was sort of silly considering both GBA Castlevanias are being rereleased on one cart soon), we had a long conversation about ratings systems and how sexual content warps my fragile little mind.

Actually, he agrees that maturity, not age, should dictate access to "mature titles,", but again, he's afraid of saying anything to my mom, lest her head explode due to all of the demoralizing of women going on.

So these games shall have to wait for another day. Or until they're impossible to find, and I will always wonder what could have been.

My mom started working again this week. She has been a stay-at-home mother ever since I was born, and largely because of my grandmother's constantly putting her down because of her unemployment, and probably her own boredom, she's gotten back into work, starting with a part-time job at a department store.

It's sort of inconvenient for everyone involved, though. I've been bumming rides and food off of friends a lot more lately, for example, and when Track starts up I have no idea how I'll be getting home.

I mean, I could run, which is sort of the point of the whole thing, but that's kind of far.

If it makes her happy, I'm glad my mom is working, but I kind of wish it could have waited until we moved, so I could just go back and forth to school on foot.
