To the Big Cheese’s mother.
Right now, the Big Cheese and I are having a nice Japanese dinner at Ooka in Doylestown, PA.
He’s ordered an interesting micro brew. I can’t exactly go into detail about it now, but I’m sure he’ll talk about it soon.
fun
Quickie Update: Black Friday
So far the haul for The Big Cheese has not been disappointing. He’s picked up about 200 dollars worth of stuff. I’m not so fortunate, but I’m here as his deal henchman.
I have the best luck.
I love video games. The Big Cheese got me into those addictive little nuggets of happiness.
I have so many memories with Nintendo’s DS line. I received a silver Nintendo DS for my birthday, a few years back. Somewhere along the line, I found a beautifully perfect, white Nintendo DS Lite.
I played my Pokemon games to death on those two beasts, but after my DS Lite broke, I was left without a portable gaming system. Two years, I’ve gone without splurging or asking for a new Nintendo DS, but my PS3 is most likely to be held accountable for that. My PS3 is the only gaming platform (besides my Android phone and computer) that I own and use on a regular basis. I do have a Nintendo GameCube stagnantly seated next to my PS3, however.
Anyway, today brought back some of those memories. The rage-quitting, the pride in finally defeating a gym leader, the shouts of excitement after winning a race in Mario Kart DS, the funny and often inappropriate drawings on PictoChat, the amazing, destructive fun of Bomberman…
What brought such awesome memories back, you ask? Well… Much like how I found the white Nintendo DS Lite, I found myself a white Nintendo DSi. An oldie, but at least it isn’t oversized, like the new 3DSXL or DSiXL.
I’m so happy. Time to break out the Pokemon Platinum and Diamond. Gonna catch me some weird Sinnoh Pokemon.
Earworm: “Stay” by Hurts
Ah, right in the feels.
I am a Whovian. A few months ago, through the fandom, I heard this song. It’s a great song, really. I can’t say that I don’t like it.
But the pain in this song is made more obvious through the fan made music video. There’s no use in explaining it if you haven’t watched the series, and I do highly suggest you watch. It’s brilliant. Fantastic. Bring a banana, because the show is a party. Geronimo! Jump right into it, don’t hesitate. Season 7 part 1 is ending this weekend, and I do not want to miss it.
Here is the official music video:
And here is the fan-made, Doctor Who themed video:

Andy the Android is showing his dominance. He ravaged an apple and I couldn’t be any more proud.

Again this was from last year’s New York City Comic Con. And what’s up with the Pez Garfield you may ask. Well, see for yourself. Where is Garfield now?
Earworm: “Pork and Beans” – Weezer
I don’t know how or why, but this song has been stuck in my head. I’ve been humming it for a while. The video is flippin awesome too. Takes a poke at everything on the intertubes.
Enjoy it!
I hope everyone had a fantabulous weekend.
Earworm: “Young Folks” by Peter, Bjorn & John
Oh, lord. I thought I’d gotten this song out of my head AGES ago. But it’s back with a vengeance. Of course, I don’t think this is a bad song at all. It’s just incessant.
I heard it when I was watching a video by John Elerick on YouTube, and it was stuck from there.
WHISTLE IF YOU DARE!
Earworm: “Heaven” by Bryan Adams
Okay, I think I’ve mentioned this before, but my musical listening range is rather diverse. This classic song just reminds me of when I was younger, listening to songs on mixtapes over and over and over and over again on the weekend road/shopping trips. One mixtape, that was made, quite possibly, by The Big Cheese himself, played all the time in my dad’s 2000 Ford Focus wagon.
I don’t know, for some strange reason, I just started to sing this song. Nothing triggered it; the only sound I could hear in my room was the clickity-clack of my keyboard and my air-conditioner churning by the window. But now it’s stuck in my head. Welcome to today’s Earworm, everybody.
Here’s the original song. Heaven by Bryan Adams.
And here’s the dance tune. Heaven by DJ Sammy.
