A Wii Craving

First off, I went out last night. A couple buddies and I had a cool evening planned, we got to the nicest theater around and were going to get drunk and watch 300, which I've been trying to see for weeks. So, we got drunk, went upstairs to get tickets, only to be told by the punkass little 15 year old behind the counter that no movies play at that theater after 10. Man, we was pissed, yo! So, we went to this dude's house, which is where my story is going.


I finally played with a Nintendo Wii, for the first time ever, and damn, was I impressed! We just played Wii Bowling, but had so much fun with it (btw, I f'ing pwn at wii bowling, gaining 235 points in my first game!!). Even though I'm going on a road trip in a couple weeks for 2 weeks and missing 2 weeks of school, just spent about $600 on fixing my car, and $1,300 on tuition and books, and need to save for PAX this year, I'm seriously considering buying one.


Now that I mention the car thing, I'm not sure how much I've disclosed about it in my blog, if anything, but a few weeks ago, my car overheated, which I just found out today was due to a faulty radiator hose clip causing all my coolant to drain out, and I blew my head gasket and cracked the head to an unrepairable degree. At this point, I was quoted about $2,000 by a mechanic, in case I wanted to be lazy, but that's just not me. So, I bought a new head on ebay for $202, an awesome deal for a 15 yr old head in such perfect shape, with valves done and camshaft and all. Then, I took everything apart and put it all back together with the new head, and started it up, but it started pouring out oil. That blew, so i took everything apart again, just to find out that the guy who sold me the head never put a seal around the camshaft! Very lame. One $4 seal and a whole lot of work later, I got it back together. That brings us to about 10 minutes ago. My car's now back together and everything seems good to go, but I'll have to wait till tomorrow morning to find out for sure. A big plus is that I found out my O2 sensor was REALLY fouled, so I put a new one in, and the car ran amazing last time I had it on. So, I'll come back tomorrow and update what's going on with my car, hopefully gonna be good news!
