Have not had a chance to get a decent night's sleep all week. I've been wanting to hit Oxford and the mall, but after work I just feel like napping. Maybe its a good thing, because if I go to the mall, I'll buy new games. I already put $5 on Prince of Persia 2 since I had that much left over on store credit. Karaoke Revolution 3 is already out as is Metal Gear Solid 3, both of which I'm on the fence on. Sure KR3 has some new songs, but more than a few are duets, and it just doesn't seem like it'll be as fun without other people. And MGS3 looks impressive but its also a little intimidating. It seems all too fancy with the catching and eating and battlefield surgery in addition to the normal "tactical espionage action". PoP2 sounds like it'll be hard too. When did video games become hard or overwhelming to me? I'm not that old. Eh, its just as well I don't get a new game, as though the roomie has completed the main plot in San Andreas, he's on LOTR: The Third Age. Looks neat, even though, as the Penny Arcade guys say its the exact same system as FFX. Its uncanny. I wonder if Square leased them the system or something. It is fun to watch and find myself shouting "Nazgul!" every so often before a random encounter, though the roomie has yet to face those again. He is in Moria though, so I'm sure the Balrog will be a boss. But I'm glad the roomie is playing games again, I hate going to sleep in the quiet, so hearing him play downstairs is a comfort. Maybe its growing up in a crowded household in NYC, but I'm used to going to sleep with things still bustling around. I don't know how I'd ever handle the suburbs when I "grow up". I mean, the remoteness freaked me out whenever I'd stay over at psyched_out's house. And now that I think about it, the quietness used to get to me when I'd sleep over the weekends at isabel79 and 7500centfish's place when we were kids. Maybe that's why their house is always haunted in my dreams.

I keep forgetting you used the fan for the noise. It used to freak me out because you'd have that thing going on when its like freezing outside and I was all, how can you have a fan on in this weather? But I remember you and Krug would like keep CSN404 freaking freezing in the winters because y'all are freaks. So I initially thought you used it to cool down.
