Spring, MO The StLFF Off-Topic Thread v3.0: There is a Life Outside of SWs???

One more question for you gamers--Guitar Hero World tour or Rock band 2?? which is better?

 

I like Rock Band 2 better, the drums felt more natural to me for some reason. Plus it has a great song listing.

 

World Tour is supposed to have better drums - their kit has cymbals. I have Rock Band 2 and when I have random groups of people over they all seem to enjoy it (except for those who can't comprehend what's going on - Amy knows what I'm talking about).

 

Completely unrelated to video games, but I just took 2nd place at the beginner's level for one of my costumes at Nebraskon today! Small con, but still nice to win something!

 

Woot! That is awesome, congrats!

 

Now... to dye my hair back to a natural color....

(I don't look good as a blonde.)

 

You can't say that and not post a picture...

 

Oh, I agree. I want to see a picture.

Told you so.

 

Ahaha! That's not blond...that's more like orange. But it doesn't look terrible. Leave it like that a while and see if it grows on you or at least look to see if people stare at you more.

And, for next weekend, it looks like Friday night (after Thanksgiving) is the only night I'll have without kids. Movie night? James Bond, anyone? Dinner sounds good too but only cause I'm STARVING right now.

 

Bwhahahahahaha.

 

I'm with Amy - the hair doesn't look bad. Also, Bond on Friday is good and I can always be dragged out for dinner somewhere.

 

I agree, not bad. Thanks for the picture.

 

Whatever. It's still almost back to it's natural color. It's redder thanks to the yellow not quite completely going away and bringing out the lighter colors in the dye I put on top of it.

I really want a new job so I can leave my hair weird colors....

 

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

 

I ate way too much. Actually, I should have just done more turkey and less noodles and rolls.

And since no men expressed an interest in seeing a movie tonight, I think Susan's suggestion of seeing Australia is perfect. Mmmmmm.... Hugh Jackman.

 

I just bought romantic movies at Target yesterday on sale. "300" and "Batman Begins," I figure they are perfect romance movies.

 

Your choice of movies was far superior to mine, I assure you. Australia is way too long...

 

Boo

 

For those that still lurk on this page, Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Holidays or whatever the case may be....... Stay warm and safe.
From the great white and very cold north.

 

Merry Christmas everyone.

 

So what did everybody get?

I got the R2 that responds to voice commands... love it! It gets a little confused when the kids are trying to tell it what to do though. I'll just have to play with it when they're in bed.

 

Clothes, $20, a darth Vader plushy, a $50 American Express gift card from work and a St. Louis Cardinals BBQ utencil set from my gf who I met at work.

 

Hey Susan, thanks for the info on the WII, right on target. The kids love it and the games you recomended, and as a special bonus they discovered that their game cube games work on it as well as the controlers.
Santa was very good to me, I got a case of NY wine (from the finger lakes, yum) Smallville season 7, Chuck season 1 and (my favorite GB Packer), a Donald Driver jersey. So needless to say my weekend was filled with fine TV watching, lots of wine and watching the packers beat Detroit (can you say 0-16, he he he).

 

I got the first two seasons of Heroes on DVD and a nice DVD shelf to put a bunch of stuff on. Supposedly holds up to 700+ DVDs, but I've mostly filled it with Star Wars toys.

Happy new year all.
