Mish-mosh of stuff

So this year is one of the years where as a birthday present, I get an extra hour of sleep.

Yes, you’re all welcome.

Tomorrow is a group trip to the Jelly Belly factory. Then again, almost all of the people who are going are around this journal somewhere, so that’s no news to anyone, I’m sure. I’ll be sure to take pictures, it’s been a while since I’ve actually used my camera. *walks away briefly to make sure battery is charged*

One of the new features in the heralded Apple iTunes Music Store is Celebrity Playlists. I only mention this because I think it’s rather cool that most of the songs on Michelle Branch’s playlist I’m familiar with, and quite a few I actually own. Just goes to explain why I like her music so much.

Speaking of Apple, I haven’t gotten Panther yet, but I will. Still undecided on the whole iPod thing, though.

I’ve been furiously trying to finish a bunch of games in anticipation for the arrival of a new batch. I’m currently trying to finish Final Fantasy Tactics Advance and .hack//OUTBREAK. Soon, I’ll have Super Mario Advance 4 as a birthday present, and of course, Final Fantasy XI, which could easily take up all my free time, as MMORPGs are known to do. Then there’s Castlevania: Lament of Innocence, which is being put on purchasing hold until I can get clear of some of these other games…

So many games, so little time. Speaking of games… I don’t know where I originally heard about it, but I’m 10 weeks into Planetarium, an online “puzzle-story in twelve weekly installments.” It’s starting to come together, but I feel with 10 weeks of involvement, if I don’t manage to solve the dang thing, I’m going to be awfully let down. I’d suggest it to people who like logic-type puzzles and are willing to wait three months for the thing to play out.
