There will be, if I read a site correctly, towards the end of November.  CSI: Crime Scene Investigation: Hard Evidence.  Apparently there will be a Wii version and an XBox 360 version.  If there is a PoS3 version, I wouldn't care cause I don't see any benefit to wasting my money on that console yet.

First of all, a Wii is a totally good use of your money...Wii sports allows you to exercise and play video games all at the same time!

Second of all...I need to stop buying books.  Period.  I have three shelves now that are all double stacked.

Then there's the British/Canadian editions of Harry Potter 1 - 4 I just bought...

True.  Then again, if my parents saw me using my Wiimote, they might think I was having a seizure.  But then again a couple of things come to mind...Zelda and CSI (interested to see how that will work out on the Wii).

Mils is right.  One person posting makes it more active, which would lead to more people posting.  It should be quite contagious...if it works out properly.

I've been promoted to Shift Supervisor and now I get to transfer to another store.  It's a step in the right direction for me.  A new store which could lead to a new transfer for when I plan to move to Missouri to live with my girlfriend.

I'm still around!

In fact, what has made my day is the fact that I am getting promoted.  I found out two days ago.  I'll be training for a couple of weeks and then I'll be sitting in my new position as a Shift Supervisor for Starbucks.  I'm friggin stoked!

Sounds like it's fun Mils.

As for me, I get to head to Anime Expo the day after tomorrow.  I'm ecstatic.  I just cannot wait for it.

I'll look for you there!  I should be cosplaying as well...as Ikari Gendou and that's only because it's a character that has a beard that I can pull off.

Knowing that my AX plans are turning out just fine.

But also my performance review was yesterday.  At Starbucks (and probably a bunch of other places) you get rated on a scale of 1 to 3 (which is also the percentage of your raise).  A 1 is Needs Improvement, a 2 is Meets Expectations and a 3 is Exceeds Expectations.  It's possible to get right in the middle, so they do a lot of rounding.  Basically 1-1.59 is a 1, a 1.6-2.59 is a 2 and 2.6-3 is obviously a 3.  Have I lost anyone yet?

Anyways, my first review was like a 1.9 or a 1.95, so I got a 2.  I was told to improve and if I got a 3 on my next review, they'd look at me for a promotion to Shift Supervisor.  That was back in January.  Fast-forwarding to yesterday.  I went in, went over my review with my boss and everything went fine.  After some calculations, it was determined that I got a 2.61 this time, which rounds up to a 3, and within the next 2 months, I'll get my promotion.

So yeah, that's what's made my day.

I picked up a copy of .hack//G.U. Vol.2: Reminisce today and I booked my flight to California for AX.  Any of you Californians that are going to AX have the chance to meet me in person.

*thinks about that*

Yeah, scratch that.  You probably wouldn't want to do that.  Hell, I don't even want to meet me. XD

Just some pictures of my car.  I don't mean to rub it in or anything, I just figured some people would like to see it.

Jealous here! Im still driving my banged up '98 malibu.

Well, look at it this way.  I have a long way to go to pay this car off.  I have to have it paid off in 6 years.  Of course, I'm aiming for less than that.

That's where a bulk of my money is going.

Thanks y'all.  I have so far.  The ride is so smooth that it's hard to tell that you're going 70 miles an hour. XD

Well, a new car.  I posted about it in the "what made your day today" thread.  It's a nice 2007 Kia Spectra.  It's brand new and before I put my hands on it, it had only been driven a total of 16 miles.

What made my day today?  Oh nothing too big.  Rumor of a possible promotion at work, not getting carded for buying some Nyquil, got a brand new car, nothing too big really.

Oh, except for the car, of course.  I got a 2007 Kia Spectra and it's Ice Blue.  I'll have some pictures of it up soon.  I'm so giddy now!
