Guitar Hero has arrived…

…after quite a struggle.

Me and cousin were going to the store/post office to pick up the Guitar Hero World Tour that I’d ordered and jesus, we really hadn’t expected it to be THAT heavy. The fact that it weighed about 35 lbs wouldn’t have been that big a deal if the box hadn’t a bit too big to carry for one person and we’re both kinda tiny. So I walked backwards carrying one end while she held the other, and it was ridiculous, especially since I had 10 lbs of groceries in my messenger bag and had a plastic bag with toilet paper in a bag hanging from my wrist. It wasn’t until we were almost home that she said we could have taken a bike and put it in the back of that, and then I made her go and get hers so we could put it on there. But seriously, I am not gonna need to use the Wii Fit for a while, or rather, I won’t be able to because my poor muscles are gonna hurt like hell tomorrow.

Still, when I put everything together (the drums and the guitar), we started playing anyway. Singing really isn’t that difficult, but playing drums is freaking ridiculous. After a while I was just sitting there hitting everything no matter what the game told me to do and we laughed like idiots when after about 10 attempts at Blondie’s “One way or another” we still couldn’t do better than 29 %.

As dumb as that game makes me feel, I still sense that this is going to turn into another bad addiction of mine.

Finally done with this thing

finally-done-with-this-thing

It “only” took me 3 days to get everything up and running and while I was working on it I had all these ideas of things I wanted to write about but now that I’m done I can’t really remember any of them. Bugger. I guess that’s what happens when you don’t sleep.

I honestly don’t know what’s up with the pink. I mean, first the ATWWNS skin I made for my Shenny site turned out that way, then a bunch of icons did, and now this. I have a theory that Jenny’s lips are to blame. See, lately it seems that either Shane and Jenny are dressed in black or I make the pics turn nearly black/white. Usually the only color that remains is Jenny’s lipstick which pretty much always is - you guessed it - pink.

As if the pink thing isn’t enough, I’ve also been listening to Katy Perry the last day or so. What the hell is wrong with me? I don’t even like her but it just feels good for my poor head to actually listen to the songs that keep getting stuck in there. And I also need to record, or at least write down the lyrics for the parody I made of “I kissed a girl”. Just worried that I might get sued and we don’t want that, now do we? I’ll just have to think of something.

I’m all by myself here since I shut the cats out of the living room because they kept trying to knock over the christmas tree. My cousin/roomie is at school and Heather went back to Scotland last night. It’s been like 3 weeks since I was on my own and I guess I’m not used to it because I have to admit I’m slightly bored.

I think I might be too tired to think of anything even remotely interesting right now, I just didn’t want this thing to be completely empty.

Yay for new blog! (And yes, I promise to try to be more interesting in my future posts.)
