Studying German at the moment, in conjunction with Swahili, Dutch, Portuguese, Greek and Italian. Language has so many unique similarities and qualities. Prost!
Listening to some BB King and relaxing after a hard day of surfing. Nursing a spiced rum, soda and a splash of lime. Good dayz.
Getting ready to go t the local mall so I can sit in line with my youngest son for hours before the Game Stop even opens hoping we can buy a PS5. Yesterday we had to buy him a $15 "Elite Club" membership because, apparently, Game Stop will only sell hot items like PS5s to people if they buy a membership. Further more, the dirt bags know there are not enough PS5s to go around so you can't just buy the console by itself. Nope, they are greedy and want extra money so they only sell them with a bundle of other stuff which you may or may not want.
So a $500 PS5 gets bundled with $300 of extra shit and you have to pay $800 for all of it. What a racket. Yet the youngest won't stop talking about how badly he wants a PS5 and reminding me that his cousin already has one and how much he really wants to play online with his cousin and other friends. As if he could not already do that on Nintendo, his Meta Quest 2, or the laptop he already has.

I'm kinda on the same boat for an Xbox SX, the only one I can get is like £700! It comes with an unwanted £200 external hard drive the bastards! So for once in my life I did the right thing and waited, I'll get one eventually without the add on! I can get an expensive mech mod vape for that extra money...Getting ready to go to the local mall so I can sit in line with my youngest son for hours before the Game Stop even opens hoping we can buy a PS5.

What time is it where you are?It is official. We are the second ones in line. Now we just need to wait two hours for the store to open and we will hopefully eventually walk out with a PS5 bundle. I have my Chargers (the football team) brand folding camp chair, an igloo with bottled water and snacks, and my son is reading off all the different bundle options to choose from. He seems really happy and excited.
