ZOUNDS!

Whelp, here I am at work again…….
Man, it’s dull. So, I’ll blog and (fianlly) get back on track with my posts!
It’s been a pretty dull week. Mostly just work, then home, then work again the next day, etc, etc, etc…. been a good month at work, but that’s mostly due to this past Saturday (the 19th) and the sale. And as a side note: No. The fact you don’t call yourself is NOT a valid reason not to know your cell phone number. Do you know your address? Do you ever send mail to yourself? No? Then why should your cell phone number be any different Mr-guy-who-just-tried-to-pay-a-bill-without-any-way-of-identifing-his-account? *whew* I feel better now. That just happened, thanks for letting me rant!

Since I’m at work and SO painfully bored, I’ve decided to follow in the foot steps of one of my favorite bloggers (who wishes to remain unnamed, so I shall reffer to her as Jane Austin) and do a top XX list. I shall do a top 10 movies (in no particular order)! *trumpet sounds here*
1: Pan’s Labrnyth- AWESOME spanish fantasy flick! Directered by the amazing Del Toro and a slew of great actors (not one of whom I can name saddly. Epic fail!) and a great, if a little strange, story!
2: Lord of the Rings- Yes, I mean all 3. To me since they all continue into each other, you can’t (or shouldn’t) really consider them seperate movies. Thank you Peter Jackson and Weta Workshop for SUCH a great fantasy epic in Middle Earth!
3: The Dark Knight- with out question, my favorite comic book movie and one of the better movies I’ve seen.
4: Spiderman 2- Another great comic book movie. Actually, my favorite before The Dark Knight came out! Well acted, well directed and well written! Best of the Spiderman movies!
5: The Mighty- One seriously good, family friendly, story!
6: The Great Escape- Steve McQueen awesomeness + WW2 + giant escape from Nazi POW camp = EPIC WIN!
7: Howes Moving Castle- Classic anime! Crazy movie (good) movie!
8: Star Wars (original trilogy)- Not the new ones! NEVER the new ones! The original stand on their own (as they did when they first came out). And they changed special effects forever.
9: Superman- Another movie that changed special effects forever because of what they did in that movie. Oh, and Christopher Reeves was an AMAZING superman!
10: You’ve Got Mail- I’m gonna catch some flak, but I love this movie! And Tom Hanks is great!

Now, just so everyone knows this is a quick list. And while these are my favorites, there are so many that I love. If I were to list all the movies I love I’d never finish this post. Well, almost time to clock out from work. So, till next time dear readers!

P.S. Hi Mom!

WOAH!

Whelp, late again. I need to do better if I’m gonna keep up one blog, much less two!
WOAH! E3 was INCREDIBLE! Many awesome annoucements from all parts of the industry, but the thing that really got my attention was Nintendo’s unvieling the 3DS! SUPER EXCITED! I have loved my DS since I got it (a few months after launch). It may have taken a while to get a decent list of good games (and still suffer from a frightening amount of junk-ware) but it got there! Chances are I won’t get one at launch, but I swear to thee… I SHALL HAVE ONE!
eventually….
This past Saturday was a big day for T-Mobile. We ran our Father’s Day promotion, every phone free with a family plan activation. During that one day T-Mobile did over 110,000 activations company wide. Being a low volume store, we only did about 30 (I got 8). Some stores nearby ended the day with triple digits. Man, sometimes I’m reminded that I’m at the wrong location! Oh well, I’ll make due where I am. I am very happy to have this job and did effectively double my June commission check!
Today is new comic day (my FAVORITE weekly holiday)! I picked up a few things, but the one that really stood out was Superman #700. This milestone issue said goodbye (and good ridance, in my opinion) to the writer of both Superman and Action Comics from the past few years, and said hello to the ongoing writer, J. Michael Strazynski (one of my favorite writers right now)! Oh, this’ll be a GOOD year for Supes!
Well, till next time dear readers!

Guess we’re staying

After a bit of a hiatious I’m back. There was some things a-happenin’! We were looking at possibly moving to a new place. It was a house for rent in Anderson, SC. The pictures of the outside looked great! A few days after I went by to look at the outside, Amiee and I got to look at the inside and, well…. we’re staying were we are now. The inside was awful! The floor were horribly bowed and the kitchen was little more than a closet with appliances. We’ll be looking at another location, but chances are we probably will stay here. Not that it’s a bad thing, we like our apartment, we were just looking for a house versus an apartment. We’d love to have a yard for our little Boo to run around in.
We’ve cut back a bit on our tv recordings (easy, since it’s summer and most shows are on break) because we watch too much. Oddly enough, and proof that tv CAN be educational, we’ve found a great show called “It’s Me or the Dog.” It’s kinda like Super Nanny for dogs, and Amiee and I have been learning a lot about being proper puppy parents! Some things that we (I) do are very wrong! But we’re learning now and correcting OUR bad behavior so we can correct his bad behavior and be a happier family.
And OH! The excitment for me this week! E3 starts tomorrow! Gaming news galore! All sorts of expectations and pre-E3 annoucments! New Nintendo handheld, the 3DS! New Legend of Zelda revealed (as promised by Nintendo last year)! Actual name of Microsoft’s Project Natal! More video from Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty! And MORE on top of that! *whew* I’m kinda hyperventalating. Well, Microsoft’s conference is tomorrow then Nintendo the morning after and Sony after that. I may do a mid-week update about E3 (cuz I’m a power-dork and to make up for the lateness of updates). Either way, till next time dear readers!
