today is [livejournal.com profile] jimithingy's birthday! We're up in NJ right now, partying. Well, not really, we're just hanging out, which is nice too. AD made out like a bandit, lots of games, dvds, a new cd changer for our stereo, and tomorrow we get to pick up our very own 35" TV!!!!! holy crap! As soon as we get it set up, AD says we're gonna watch Star Wars. Sweet! So, yeah, I am definately benefitting from this. I also got a $20 gift card to best buy, but after we got there and I picked up the scrubs dvd and frou frou album, it only came to as much as was still on my xmas gift card and some change. So I still have a best buy gift card. I almost broke down and bought a legit copy of Sims 2 but AD convinced me to wait, with the expansion pack coming out in August, they might start packaging Sims 2 and University together for less than buying them seperate. So I'll wait.

We're chillin' now, listening to the Six Feet Under CD I bought AD - the new one with the exclusive Jem track. It's pretty good. Oh, and we bought some gifts for Nicole, AD's cousin, who will be here in an hour or so. She's 11, so we got her a farside comic book, a foxtrot book, and I got her "Whales on Stilts" a ridiculous book that I just finished. (and while we were out I broke down and bought 'Strangers in Paradise pocket book 1' -- [livejournal.com profile] vertigozooropa will be so proud.

back to goofin off now.

And did you notice the picture on the cover? Yes....

I predict more of the breaking down when you finish the book...

You can basically get any piece of SIP artwork from www.strangersinparadise.com, but I've done some photoshopping, myself. Mostly isolation...

If it's any consolation, the Pocket Books are worth the money. They might be the best value of any comic out there.

Well, except for "The Complete Bone," which costs a little bit more than double, and has more than triple the issues in it...

Don't buy that, Sam!

But I would not discourage you from buying SIP. It's just too good to pass up.

I'm Terry Moore's pimp. It says so on my business cards.

haha, no no, i ordered Bone from the library and I'm not buying that. i'd much rather have SiP, I feel like I'll want to go back to those again and again.

I know what you mean. If I hadn't leant my book 1 to Kim, I'd be reading it right now.

Happy Birthday to your man! :D Yay for Cancerians! ([livejournal.com profile] miss_tinkermel and I are both Cancerians.) Hee! Did you guys drive up to NJ? Did it take long? I only ask because I was talking with B how back east, it seems like you can go for a little drive in some states and head into a neighboring one. It just boggles the mind. But then again, give me like 4 hours, and I can be in another country. :)

Yay for birthday gifts and shopping! I hope you two are having a great time!

oh yeah Jersey is only 2 1/2 hours from us, and we have to drive in Delaware for 30 minutes too! haha. It's crazy. Pennsylvania is about the same distance as well, you just gotta take a left at Delaware hehe.

And I posted in a friend's blog using your cookies icon and she commented on it saying it was very cool! :-P So it's not just me!

That's so cool to have so many options with regards to road trips! :D

Heh, I once had a friend that would (jokingly) remark how he thought that Delaware didn't really exist because at the time, he hadn't met anyone from there, nor anyone who could recall traveling through it. He'd always say that his parents told him they drove through the state but he was asleep, so he would joke that he never really knew if there was any truth to their words. *laughs*

Hee! That's so awesome! Too bad I didn't come up with the original idea for that one, either. *laughs*
