After replaying the last few minutes of the original Halo and watching the closing cutscene again, I’ve made my decision: I’m going to the midnight sale to pick up the sequel. I will probably not, however, play any of the game tonight after I get home—but I’ll most likely get up early and pop it in right away the next day.

It’s 20 minutes to eleven now, but I’m still at the house. My wife just called to say she was running late at work and wouldn’t be home until maybe 11-something, so I’m going to wait up for her and see if she makes it home in time. She said she wanted to tag along with me to run down to the mall. Do I have the coolest wife or what? I know she doesn’t give a jack about Halo; she just wants to hang out with me. That’s so sweet. I was gonna be pretty lonely down there by myself, too.

Looking forward to having tomorrow off. Big huge site redesign project will be waiting for me when I get back, though…and just before I left work for the day, I was told that we have to redesign ALL of the goddamn rate cards I busted my ass to create for the dozen directory sites we have. Christ a fuckload. I wish that goddamn directory advertising group would BURN, BURN IN HELL. Leeching bastards.

Uh…okay, that’s a rant for another day. Time to go put GTA back in so I can shoot something while I’m waiting.
