I'm starting to love this Borders...

Their website says that now until the 29th, if you buy 4 graphic or manga novels you'll get the fifth free. I got all excited until it said that it was "in stores only" and then realized that San Angelo doesn't have a Borders--just it's kid brother Waldenbooks. Which then made me realize that this town doesn't have enough book stores. I can only think of two in this entire town, and Hastings is as good as it gets here unfortunately. They have an okay selection yes, but its no B&N's. I remember the last time I was in Austin, I had the great fortune of going into this HUGE bookstore that I can't remember the name of that was two or three stories large in which I could have looked around for hours and it was so amazing that I actually even remember the disappointment I had about leaving it from that day still and that was a good while ago now! I particularly remember it having the biggest selection of poker books I'd ever seen and could only wish for Hastings to have...

Sigh.

Microsoft is taking over our living room...

Not much going on, I added a few new songs and fixed some broken ones on the playlist. Yesterday I ordered the Samurai 7 DVD boxset for an unbelievable $25 on Borders.com during a 2-day sale. I'm selling my Wii and everything with it to my friend James. It was my x-mas present from Billy but we both haven't had any real reason to play it now for the past several months and we're playing the xbox360 a LOT so it just kind of makes sense.

Playing some online poooker at the moment, see you next time space cowboy!

Back from Dallas

I've lost my phone transfer cable so everytime I've wanted to post something I've been putting it off but I can't find the dumb thing. It costs like $20 for a replacement so I'm not in a hurry to get a new one but at the same time I want picture posts damn it! I was in Dallas from Sept. 29th through October 1st and attended the yearly Animefest convention there and it was a blast. As soon as I can I'm going to put up some pictures of us in our awesome cosplay gear and of course we ate some amazing food while in Dallas. This made it our 2nd anime convention so far and this time we made sure to cosplay since we were so inspired from the Dallas A-kon convention in June. I easily had some of the best sushi ever at The Blue Fish, good vegetarian/indian food at Cosmic Cafe and then some great Thai food at a cute little place on Oak Lawn Ave. which was in the gay area of Dallas and I swear everyone eating there was gay or lesbian and no I'm not complaining. ^_^

On the poker front I've been doing very well this month ever since I've been concentrating on playing a LOT more sitngo's and more than ever I'm wishing I was on Pokerstars instead of Bodog since it takes a rediculous 8 WEEKS to get a check from them for a withdrawl...and since I don't want to wait until November for a check I'm going to just let it grow my bankroll which is probably what Bodog wanted anyway from us players (in the hopes we keep playing on their site instead of the competition) I've heard that on Pokerstars it only takes a few days tops so that is really messed up Mr. Calvin Ayre, your company can do better.
