So Irritating

Today was a very very very irritating day. First off yesterday I had to run a bunch of errands and stuff with my mom. It wasn't too bad and lucky me we went and got me an early birthday present. My birthday isn't for another couple weeks but we went to Best Buy to get me a new wireless keyboard and mouse. They had one on sale, Logitech MX 3200, for $70 which I had seen in the weekly ad and I kinda liked it and it was a good price. When we got there we looked at a few different and I ended up getting a Logitech MX 5000. Normally it runs $150 which is more than mom would want to spend on me but there was a opened/floor model/returned one. Not sure which but it had no box and was just shrink wrapped, but it was only $112 instead of $150 so I was happy cause I got a better keyboard then I had expected.

I hooked it up last night and well... got nothing. My computer wouldn't recognize it at all. I called Logitech when I got up today and after trying everything, most of which I had tried last night, we decided the reciever must be bad so I had to take it back. I had to swing by the bank on the way, which is never fun but it didn't take too long. When I got to Best Buy I sadly had to dish out the extra $40 to get an unopened one, I know I'm cheap but I like to save money. I got home all happy and thinking everything was all good.

Now I know any of you veteran gamers out there have thrown controllers and possibly keyboards across the room, or have at least come close. Well I almost threw my PC across the room cause of course the new keyboard didn't work either. It was then that I finally realized just how much of an idiot I was and went and tried plugging it into my moms computer. Of course it worked no problem which of course ment my USB ports were shot. I was rather pissed as you probly assumed. I had shelled out an extra $40 and taken back a perfectly good keyboard.

Well I decided that I wanted my $40 back and went up to Best Buy yet again and finally something good happened. They gave me back the one I had returned and gave me back my $40. I had to spend $20 of it picking up a 2 USB port PCI card but still its better than $40.

So now here I am finally typing on my sexy new keyboard and I'm loving it. I went over to a friends and did some gaming and stuff but I almost skipped it to come home and get this keyboard hooked up. Mostly played Catan, that game is strangely fun and addicting.

Other than that not much goin on. I rented Rouge Galaxy a few days ago and I gotta say I love it. I'm tempted to actually go pick it up. I'll probly write a review later this week when I get farther through it. I figure I actually should be around halfway done give or take. The combat system isn't anything special, I'm an old school RPG geek who prefers menu based combat to the real time combat almost all new RPGs use. The great part is the character and item development aspects of the game. The Revalation Flow charts remind me of the License system from FFXII but actually done well. The Frog Log and Factory are fun ways to make new items. Insectron Battling is a rather amusing little minigame to give you a little break from all the normal battling. Ok screw it I'm gonna go write that review now lol you see what you did you got me started and now I can't stop... its so all your fault...
