a guilty pleasure everyone knows about…

It’s officially 7 days until the Wii… woohoo! It gonna be some cold, cold, hard-nipples-cold weather in Boston!

So how am I spending my time until then? Well, I completed Beyond Good and Evil last night (finally) and it was a fairly enjoyable, albiet short, gaming experience. Too bad they probably won’t be making a sequel even though the ending sets up for one. Well, all in all, I got to scratch one game off my never passed list. With really less than a week left, I am debating on whether to go out and buy Final Fantasy III or Yoshi’s Island 2 tomorrow for the DS. I’m pretty tight on cash until the end of the year but dangit, now is the time to splurge and play!

Today, I got a few items in the mail which made me unusually happy. First I got my pair of hanging shoe holders. Now I will no longer be throwing my shoes in a dark corner in the coat closet. The racks are supposed to hold 20 pairs but I’m guessing these were made for womens’ shoes as a pair of my shoes (and I’m only a size 8.5) seem to bust the shoe sleeves… soooo… what should hold 2 pairs is only going to hold 10 pairs.

The second thing I got was a set of DVDs from Hong Kong with the complete Ally McBeal TV series. So far, the discs have some technical issues and I’m fairly sure they’re bootlegs. Another tell tale was the fact that discs 3 and 4 (of 30) do not have Ally related artwork on them. In fact, Disc 4 has the Season 1 Smallville promo photo on it. Anyway, For a nominal price, I guess it was worth it. I actually thought it was a genuine product (and that products in Asia are just cheaper) but I guess I was wrong. Oh well, I got 30 discs to go through.
