All I want for Christmas is my PS3

...and I got it! Woo-Hoo!!! Hip Hip Huzzah!!! Oh BABY!!! I could go on, but I think everyone gets the message; I have a PS3 and it's essentially taken over my life! I just downloaded "LoccoRocco Cocoreccho!" from the PSN as well as "Street Fighter Alpha". Of course, the first download was "Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix", 'cause I'm a Street Fighter slut fanatic and can't get enough! I got the 160 GB PS3 bundle pack, which means I already have "Drake's Uncharted Fortune", I bought "John Woo's Stranglehold" and "LittleBigPlanet" for myself and my friends and family bought me "Heavenly Sword" and "Soul Calibur 4".

I've made the decision to play Stranglehold, Drakes, Heavenly Sword and LittleBigPlanet in that order w/a liberal sprinkling of Soul Calibur 4 (I've already downloaded Yoda, I just need to find the Apprentice. Can I just say that I'm LOVING the downloads: besides Yoda, LoccoRocco and the Street Fighters, I've also downloaded the Street Fighter skins for Sackboy--Oh noes, I toldja I gotsa Street Fighter problem); I should be done by the middle of the year no, how 'bouts October, um maybe 2010 well, I'll play it by ear.

Not really concerned about trophies, that's mostly Andy's department.

I do have a tendency to get really obsessed w/it, which is why scheduling is crucial, mainly my sleeping schedule. I didn't oversleep, but I was up until the wee-hours playing Stranglehold and now I'm paying for it.

But other than that, I'm happy.

Next, Street Fighter 4, 'cause I've got issues.

SmarTrip Users Can Now Reload at CVS & Giant

Excellent!     Sent to you by tony via Google Reader:     SmarTrip Users Can Now Reload at CVS & Giant via DCist by Sommer Mathis on 6/16/09 Metro formally announced today that SmarTrip users can add value to their cards at select CVS and Giant Food stores . Last year, WMATA made SmarTrip cards more widely available for sale at CVS and Giant , but now customers can also choose to add money to their cards at both chains while they check out. Many CVS stores actually began offering customers the ability to reload their SmarTrip cards back in April, while Giant has only started to test the sales devices at eight area stores. The grocer will likely add 42 more locations later this summer. Not every CVS or Giant has the new SmarTrip reload technology, but a lot of them do. Consult the list of participating stores to find the one closest to you. The change means that SmarTrip users need no longer necessarily wait in line to access Metro's machines insi...

Shoveling. Snow. Saints!

The last eight days have truly been the stuff of legends!  First, the snow on Friday!  As many of you know, I was born and raised in Alexandria, VA.  Aside from the four years that I served in the Army, I've spent roughly 32 years of my life in the familiar surroundings of traffic, traffic and more traffic.  That being said, I have NEVER EVER seen anything like this.  One could make the argument that there was the blizzard of '96...but I was still in Georgia at the time so technically, this is a first for me.  I gotta say, I love snow.  Not the shoveling, but the sound of snow falling; so quiet, so serene.  Truly a thing a beauty...and the fact that I missed several days of work because of it doesn't hurt.  I also didn't miss the fact that we lost approximately 20 hours of power in the first 48 hours of said snow storm.  Honestly, I didn't mind it so much.  We lost power at 10PM which conveniently became bed time!  You'd be amazed at how tired you suddenly feel...

Ma'am I'm not a hero, I'm just doing my job!

I wrote this in response to a friend who posted a blog entry about heroes a few days ago: When I was a young boy, my aunt would let me and my sister go to 7-Eleven; it was one of the few areas we were allowed to go by ourselves. Generally, I was there for a Slurpee, but once a week, something magical would happen: the 7-Eleven would receive new comics!!! Oh joy! New comics! Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, the Hulk, Captain America, the X-Men and my favorite, Spider-Man. Yes, for the longest, he's been one of my favorites to read and even though I don't buy comics anymore (are you kidding me, look at the price tag?!?) I still casually read it when I'm in my favorite bookstore and occasional, I'll buy graphic novels. He's been my favorite for several main reasons: 1-He's like me. Oh sure, he was a teenager by the time I started reading but I understood what it was like to have a good day at school but a bad day at home. Or a good day at home, a ...
