1. Aw, poor Circuit City!
2. *grabs purse and rushes to the nearest Circuit City to hunt for bargains.* Yes, I am a vulture!
Remember what I had said at Chinese New Year? That I was hoping for some ang pao? Well, I took my ang pao money and went shopping for deals and discounts. And I found 'em.
Circuit City had slashed prices on everything in its liquidation, and I picked up some lovely new ear buds for my music addiction, half a dozen DVDs, and my self-indulgent splurge for all of 2009.
I got a Wii. AND IT WAS ON SALE FOR 20% OFF. So awesome.
It was like Christmas all over again. Better, in fact. This past Christmas, everybody was rather subdued and careful about spending. I blew all my ang pao on the Wii, so I feel rather naughty for that, but then again, IT WAS ON SALE.
Wii games and accessories were on sale too, so I got the game that I really wanted: Mario Kart Wii. I'd played it before with friends on their Wii, and I just love this game!
Guaranteed to drive you bananas.
How do I describe this gloriously entertaining game that has endless replay value? How about this:
COMPLETELY UNHINGED ANIMATED VEHICULAR PANDEMONIUM.
The fast and the furious.
OK, nobody tell my Nerd Lords about this! I could be, should be locked up diligently in the Library of Doom, not zooming around in cartoony video game mayhem with my buddies. But hey! It'll be a fun little break from research -- take a quick spin around one of the Mario Kart racetracks!
