[JulietStMoon]

Nah, I've only had about four hours sleep in the last twenty four hours which included a full day at work and a three commute.

I'm pretty fucked up at the moment.

I thought immortals didn't need to sleep.

Bought Fallout New Vegas Ultimate (or whatever the one is with all the DLC) off the daily deal today for a little under $7 on Steam. I figure, I have a computer that can run stuff like this now without stuttering on the lowest of the low settings at best, so I may as well take advantage of it.

Bought these at Fred Meyer for $10 each!

Got DKCR3D from Club Nintendo. Was the only game I thought was worth it in the platinum rewards this year

got a nice printer free as a review item

I could write a review of that printer.... Mother in law just shipped one back to HP because it broke while printing (I have never seen anything like it but parts where loose or something.)

Customer service was fantastic, they sent her a new one for free with a free shipping label to send the old one back. So other than hauling around 40 pounds (guessing) of plastic and stuff to the post office it was relatively pain free.

Still have the new one they sent in the box, she ended up switching to a laser printer with toner because you can print for pennies on the dollar compared to that HP machine... (Ink is expensive and even if all you print is black stuff "Some color is used" according to the techs and web pages I read.) They actually do not sell a model of printer that will only print in black and white. So she switched to a monochrome laser printer scanner.

Also setting up Wifi printing is somewhat complex compared the printer we replaced it with. (I did think the color touch screen on it is pretty cool though.)

This is the printer she got to replace it for her news letter and it has dropped the cost of printing a lot. She probably prints like 500-1000 pages a month so the difference in ink cost has saved an arm and a leg.

you can get the ink pretty cheap with remanufactured carts, the printer came with 2 sets of ink carts as well

Hmmm I may ask her for the new one they sent for my own use, I don't print that often but buying ink at Walmart for that printer is just crazy expensive. That link you posted is waaayyy cheaper. I think she was paying like 80 bucks for a set? (I am not sure about the price but I know it was more than just a toner cart.)

The Wifi printing is just nice for her home set up, I would prefer wired myself (I will say being able to print from my Android device over WiFi is kinda slick... lol)

Just ordered Kirby, Zelda, and a Wii U Pro COntroller during Best Buy's sale.

Which Kirby, and which Zelda?

Anyway, In the past couple days, I also ordered the following things off Amazon, after going a few weeks of being broke. Prices include shipping, and I also include one item I bought much earlier this month, but forgot to mention here before.

• Linkin Park's Hunting Party (CD) (new) ($17.05)- I forgot to mention that I ordered this off Amazon at the beginning of this month. I never thought I'd get back into physical albums, but with how cheap they are and with Amazon's new auto-rip feature that gives me a digital copy to tide me over until I get the higher quality CD, it's hard to pass up. Pretty good album too, especially compared to the last couple (A Thousand Suns sucked, though Living Things was somewhat of an improvement).
• Nintendo security screwdriver bits (new) ($14.69) - To open the N64 and GameCube I mentioned getting at the flea market a few weeks back. The reset buttons are jammed, so I need to open them up and clean them.
• Castlevania: Circle of the Moon (GBA) (used) ($11.97)- I haven't played a 2D Castlevania game since I beat Portrait of Ruin about a month back, so I figured it's about time.
• Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World: A Novel (paperback) (new) ($15.19)- I haven't read a book since Divergent (which sucked) and Howl's Moving Castle (which was awesome) earlier this year, even though I'm telling myself I'm getting back into leisurely reading. Just from what I've heard, Hard-Boiled will be a weird one, and I'm looking forward to it.
• Deus Ex: Human Revolution- Director's Cut (Wii U) (new) ($17.53)- I figured it was about time I picked up another game so the Wii U gets used for more than just YouTube. I've been wanting to get this for a while, but didn't feel like paying the inflated price tag that only the Wii U version had at launch (thanks Square Enix).
• A dozen assorted fresh-baked cookies (Appalachian Cookie Company) ($20~)- I haven't bought these yet, but I will this evening, and have them delivered to me and my girlfriend's door. Price is estimated includes delivery fee and tip.

So in short, a new album, a tool for opening electronics, a foreign book, a director's cut of a modern acclaimed game, a classic handheld game, and a dozen fresh-baked cookies delivered to my door so my girlfriend and I can get fat while we play games together (Sunday is game day for us). I'm quite a cultured bastard.

Yeah, thanks. But those aren't fakes, the auction just started that low and nobody seemed to bid on it.
