3rd shift stocker with a bunch of fucking clowns... don't get me started. I work with guys who have been doing the shit YEARS and none of them know wtf they're doing. It's like working with a bunch of handicapped people. God forbid we get an above average truck. I'll be the one to put most of it up. I've worked with a crew of 4 (including myself) some nights and STILL put up half the truck myself.

The only good thing about my job is I get to listen to my iPod ALL... DAMN... NIGHT. Then again, that may not be such a good thing. I have come to the conclusion that iPods have desensitized me to music. I can remember what it used to do to me when I had been without my tunes for a few hours... I no longer feel that way and I honestly believe it's because I listen for hours almost every night.

I've actually been on paid vacation this week and tonight is my last night so I'm in a pretty bad mood.

If I remember correctly, Tyler didn't make it himself.

I make all my products from organic and/or recyclible materials. I make body oils, bath salts, milk bath salts, brown sugar scrubs, salt scrubs, and hair oil treatment.

I started the business from scratch. I'm not an affliate and I didn't take out loans either. I saved up and got everything myself. I created the recipes myself and the scent blends.

Most of my products have health benefits to go along with the skin benefits.

I have an original Earthboud, unfortunately i got it from a guy in highschool and never got the box or anything. Actually traded it for a copy of Rogue Squadron for the N64. lol. I think i got the big end of the trade.

The SNES was such a nastolgic system. N64 even more so for me. I still regularily play my N64 and SNES, just beat Earthboud for the 3rd time a few months ago. Virtual boy however is one i just couldnt get into.

Wooow, you really got a good deal with that trade.

Me, I was a Zelda, Mario freak. In fact, another RPG I loved.

With Virtual Boy, I got Wario Land and Pinball, which I played the hell out of both. Plus I liked that fact that I basically could take the Virtual Boy ANYWHERE I wanted since it could work on 8 - AA batteries for about 14 hours straight.

My Mom threw it away, which makes me pissed because its now a collector's item.

I want you to know...once I read SNES...I creamed my pants.

And Yea, RE D.C. is a collector's item. They only put out a limit amount of the game and then most of those were bugged. A bugged version is worth $300 and un-bugged is worth $1500. I didn't know this when I sold mines though. I knew it was a collector's item, but I didn't know it was worth THAT much.

Parasite Eve was a good game too. I loved it and the game play but for me, Parasite Eve 2 was better since it added the "puzzle" element, which I loved so much about RE. Plus, I was always a fan of the movie that the game was based on. Its one of those "science fact" kind of things.

Also, for the Wii, I LOVED playing Wario Ware! I use to do my excerise to the final stage where you have to dance in time with the people.
