Well I just got the new Prince of Persia game from Amazon today. And because I Pre-Ordered it they upgraded me to the limited edition. It comes with the game, and online comic, bonus DVD with videos and more.
Not bad for just paying the regualr price of the game.
So I guess I know what I’ll be doing all weekend. I also recently got Too Human and have just started that game.
The next one I want is Fallout 3 but I think I’ve used up all my “entertainment” budget and will have to wait a but. Unless I can find a good deal on it.
Just thought I would show off my new set up. I moved my Xbox 360 to my desk so now I will never have to leave my room except to go to the bathroom and to eat something. Its pretty nice to have the 360 right next to my computer so I can look things up or keep track of other things.
I don’t know how long this will last but it seems to be working out pretty well so far.
Yesterday my mom sent me this pic from the Rays Baseball game (Game 1). I haven’t talked to her today but I bet she had a blast. I mean look at that smile.. she must have had fun.
Finally got my copy of Fable II direct from Amazon with “Release Day Delivery” which awsome. Now I cant wait to go home and play it. I was even debating if I should take the rest of the day off from work to start my Fable Adventure.
But I have to be a good Designer and do my work before play. But you can bet that I will be up most of the night playing Fable II.
For quite sometime now I’ve wanted to have a similar setup at home as I do at work. At work I have 2 Dell 19″ LCD display while at home I have an Apple iMac 20″. So I started looking at prices for another 20″ wide screen display.
Knowing I needed to get the best deal possiable I called up my step-father in NY and asked him if he had an “in” and knew where I could get a good deal on the type of display I was looking for. He told me to send him the specs and he would look into it.
Come Friday he called me up and told me to be home on Saturday because I was getting a dilivery from FedEx. With the dilivery truck on Saturday morning came a new Samsung 20″ LCD. I was in shock…
He had gone ahead and bought be one and had it shipped next day. I couldn’t believe it. What could I do to pay him back. At the moment the best thing I could come up with was to call him up and give him a big thank you.
I know one thing, I might not have a lot of money to spare but I know that I have a great family behind me. If I ever had to chose to either have all the money I would ever need or just have my family, hands down I would always pick my family.
I Love You Bill, Thanks for being such a great dad and always being there for me. I hope one day I can do the same for you.
This weekend was a pretty tame weekend. Since I’m trying to save money I haven’t been doing much these days. I’ve been a good boy and am now taking my lunch to work every day. A ham and Swiss cheese sandwich with mayo and some type of soup.
But that is not what I wanted to talk about. My point is that since I am in this new saving money mode I’ve cut back quite a bit. I’ve combined my websites under one host instead of two, taking lunch to work, got ride of Verizon FiOS TV (I only have the Internet now), turn off the air conditioning when I leave for work, eating at home a lot now, etc. Read the rest of this entry »
