  1. Jeez. I had forgotten the "grind" you need to do in Yellow to begin with. So much fun!! No, I'm not being sarcastic. lol

      Yellow still felt like a jRPG in a way. Great game though!

  2. Classic Pokemon Yellow is a real blast from the past..loving the old-school Pokemon game!

      I would enjoy Yellow more if I had a non-japanese cartridge... I hate being able to only read half the text.

  3. Here's to another week..hope you all have a good one.

  4. First work week completed! The hours are a little different than I'm used to, but so far, so good. Loving the job, and hope to learn more stuff as time goes on.

      I think last I read, it was a vibratory factory. I think that's what someone mentioned.

      Awesome. Glad you are happy there. :)

      Working in the A/P and Payroll positions for the job, plus odds and ends for receiving. And no, the vibratory factory didn't work out. Seems I wasn't quite up for the job. But all in all back on track after about a month of a forced hiatus.

  5. Things are going pretty well now. Seems the boss at my new job wants me to learn all aspects of the financials. Of course I said yes. :)

  6. Why, yes, I've decided I will go back for day three of my new job. :)

      Oh, that good, huh?

  7. "Workin' 9 to 5"...never thought I would, since most of my jobs usually started at 8 or 8:30, so this is different.

  8. First day on the new job. Looking forward to going back. I know, it's only the first week, but the vibes are good.

      Same! 1st days are always awkward but I'm feeling good about this one. So much to learn!

      You work in a vibrator factory??

    4. Unbeliever

      Unbeliever

      Thanks. Uhm, no vibrator factory. I got turned down for that job.

  9. Ah, I missed Smash Bros on the 3DS. Glad I picked it up as my second title to play on my portable.

  10. Well, I did it. Got a new 3DS with two games to tide me over for the month of February.

      Sweet! Love my 3DS.

      Here's to hoping I stick with it this time and stop being so indecisive about what I want to play.

  11. Good news. I start a new, full-time job on Monday! I'm very thankful it worked out and the company in question really wants me to join their team. :)

  12. Oh...my...God. One of the companies I applied for wants me to join their team! *CELEBRATION* My work slump over? I certainly HOPE SO! *happy dance*

  13. Another interview today. Had plenty of interviews so far, just no follow-ups. SIGH! Keeping my fingers crossed. :)

      All the best!

      Good luck. I recently went through this too. Hang in there!

      Well, another interview under my belt. Got another next week...hopefully more. Two more jobs applied for.

  14. Two more interviews under my belt, two more jobs applied for just now. So far no call backs for additional interviews...but we'll keep on fighting the good fight.

  15. About 40 hours into Kingdoms of Amalur: The Reckoning (360) and I have to say, I'm having tons of fun with it. LOVE this game.

    1. SoulBlazer

      SoulBlazer

      Picked it up as a discount game about a year ago and it's a fun game for sure. I don't know how much attention it got.

    2. Unbeliever

      Some on YouTube, reviews seemed generally positive, but of course referencing a "Fable-type" game often. I find that, IMO, it's better than Fable.

    3. Iwantgames:)

      Iwantgames:)

      I loved Amalur on my ps3. Kinda wish my ps3 hadn't died now I wanna play it again :/

  16. Now that I've made up my mind what I'm collecting and playing for video games, I'm a much happier gamer. :D

      Congratulations! It does help a lot to have that figured out. It's so easy to get side-tracked.

      Yea..have to get my budget under control. Aside from 2-3 games coming out this year, I am going to be passing on a lot of things.

  17. Played some Pitall! on my VCS. Love that game.

    1. Nutsy Doodleheimer

      Nutsy Doodleheimer

      A classic! As well as Lost Caverns.

    2. retrorandy

      retrorandy

      GREAT game and pretty consistent on every game system. Played a lot of Pitfall II: Lost Caverns on my trusty ColecoVision. In fact I think I played it more than the original. I remember being excited when Pitfall II made it to the arcades too.

    3. Papa

      Super Pitfall on the Coco 3 is pretty fun, too!

  18. And the job hunt now is in full swing...gah. :(

      Hm. An interview has presented itself. :)

      Good luck. I've been out of work since March. Software developer for 20 years.

    4. Unbeliever

      Ouch. :( Sorry to hear that, xucaen. This job I'm interviewing for tomorrow isn't really in my "field" (accounting/bookkeeping), as it's a custodian job. But, I can't turn my nose up at an opportunity. I've done custodian work in the past and yes, it's hard work, but it's satisfying as well.

  19. Okay..up a 1 a.m. for no damn reason. Ah well...

      Porn addiction is real, and treatable.

  20. Thinking of adding some arcade classics to my Xbox 360 via LIVE. Pacman, Ms. Pacman, and Asteroids are on my radar.

  21. Fully engrossed in Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning for the Xbox 360 and it's expansion/DLC packs. Level 10 mage at the moment...some of the quests are longer than I anticipated..side quests, that is.

  22. Oh what to buy next for my Xbox 360...so many choices...

  23. Working at my old job for awhile (temporarily) and still trying to find a new job. So far no success, but this time of year isn't good to catch an Employer's eye.

      What the heck happened at the new, now old, job?

    3. Kiwi

      Old job is better than no job. I hope you'll find something better.

      Well, after a week's worth of barely any training at my other job, I got terminated at the end of the week. I wasn't "getting it", according to them. So, my job now (old job before the other "old" job) hired me back temporarily to help out with a few things. January's not too far away..so I'm hoping my luck will improve. Merry Christmas to everyone!

  24. In celebration of the release of Star Wars, I am reading the original Star Wars book, copyright 1976 (with full-color inserts!)

      I've been reading Splinter of the Mind's Eye. First time in well over 30 years. Now onto the Han Solo trilogy by Brian Daley.

      I had the Return of the Jedi book for years.

      Saw the movie last night in 3D. Very much like the new movie and the plot lines that have been developed. Should make for some lasting SW goodness in the future.

  25. So, my old boss (from the job that I didn't get canned at) called and asked for some "help" with things that needs to get done before the end of the year. I was more than happy to volunteer! This non-work thing is starting to get on my nerves....

      Based on how people are acting at my place, work is starting to get on people's nerves as well. It seems people either have too much or too little to do, very few have that perfect balance.
