As I alluded to in my diet log, on Friday I finally picked up the XBox bundle pack, and made a trip all the way to Ann Arbor to get a controller converter so I could use my Cobalt Flux on my XBox, although that doesn't seem to be a 100% working solution at this point. I also picked up Dance Dance Revolution Ultramix 2 (natch) and Midway Arcade Treasures 2. The latter brought back a lot of memories, as back at Antioch I played an awful lot of Mortal Kombat 2 (along with Tetris and the Twilight Zone pinball game), and I guess now I get to re-learn all the movesets and stuff, although from what I've played of it so far, I'm once again reminded of the lack of depth in strategy in the Mortal Kombat games. (Sorry, once a Street Fighter otaku, always a Street Fighter otaku.)
Anyway, things with Mark seem to be going well so far; I've even bought his Christmas gift already. There's talk that Mark and Heather may actually go to the courthouse to get married this week because of something involving Mark's ability to work here, but I guess that's not really in my realm of control. Whatever makes them happy, and I certainly have no qualms with Mark being my brother-in-law.
So yeah. Back to work with all this stuff I need to do for the end of the term ... ugh, there are times when I wonder if all this grad school stuff will be really worth it. And I'll have something for the .journal later this week to help conclude .org.4.
