I do love the bonus gifts

orangerfulYesterday, I was spoiled yet again. Went to the mall while we were out, because one of the members of the DCSWCC reminded me that the Illyria figure was out and I had seen her before christmas but felt silly buying her. So I ran back into Suncoast to get her. And as a bonus, they had the Buffy Halloween PaLz set for 75% off! So I snagged that too. Because they are so darn cute. (though whoever made the jacket for Xander was a doofus, as I can't get it on him...so he's staying in Army costume for now).
These purchases spawned a re-arranging of my desk. Moved all my Yodas around, bumped the other PalZ set down next to the middle shelf and put Illyria next to Spike...I'll post photos of that later.
Then we went and saw![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jimithingy's brother and got our christmas presents (hey, better late than never!). jimithingy got a cat calendar and 40-year old virgin. I got a new DDR game, plus, addressed to both of us, was a copy of Karaoke Revolution Party for PS2, which part of me really wants to try, and the other part wants to go hide the game. hehe. We have to buy a microphone before we can even try it out though. (though I think the game should come with a case of some sort of alcohol...)
We also found out that there are a few gifts in limbo. Apparently,jimithingy wishlisted 'Batman Begins: Deluxe Edition' and that turned out to be a Best Buy exclusive. So Amazon ran out of items to fill the order and decided not to send it until it had a copy...along with about 5 other things that he had asked for.
ack, library is closing, must go!

It's Dickens too! Bleak House though, which I will sheepishly admit I wrote a successful paper on in college without actually having read the book. So I don't know much about it.
I checked out Bones last week and was kind of "eh"

Yeah, we're not CSI people, and Bones seemed like the poor mans CSI. And when there are 20 versions of CSI out there anyway, why make another one, even if it does star David Boreanaz?
