A Father's Day Gift (or two, or three)

Today is Father's Day. I was at Best Buy about a week or so ago buying a memory stick for my digital photo frame when I came across the first season of Burn Notice on DVD. Not only did they have it, it was on sale for about 25% of the original price. I have never bought a TV series on DVD before but seriously for that price, I couldn't pass it up. I thought, oh I can buy this because Father's Day is coming. Then I thought, well Rick will probably want something more for him...so I found The Italian Job on Blue-Ray also on sale for a very reasonable price.

I got home and messed around with the card for a few days and wasn't able to get it to work. So of course I had to go back to the store. Well by then Guitar Hero had come out. Of course I had to buy it!

So this afternoon I gave Rick his Father's Day gifts. When he opened the first, Burn Notice, he said, is this for me or for you? Then as he was opening up the second gift he said, you didn't need to get me anything. I let him know that I was happy to get him gifts. He finished opening Guitar Hero and said, oh is this for you? He was teasing me as he knows very well that yes I wanted both of those BUT he appreciates the gifts.

Rick is so incredible and wonderful. I look forward to the day when we will have a child of our own and he will be able to be a father again. I would say
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY RICK
but he doesn't read my blog.

Guitar Hero

After our visit to Seattle we decided that we needed a music game in our home. My brother bought Rock Band and so we decided to get Guitar Hero. We decided this was the best way to go since there are only the two of us and we could just get guitars. Well Rick happened to buy World Tour for me...which makes it so we CAN add drums and a mic, eventually.
I have become addicted to the game. I beat it on easy in less than 10 days. I have now moved on to playing most songs on medium and tonight I even tried hard on my favorite song. I failed miserably on hard but still had fun. It is going to take some time for me to really become good at Hot for Teacher and Crazy Train even on easy.
The other thing that is great is that Rick plays with me every night. This is Rick who really does NOT like video games at all.
I thought you might like to see me in my costume... Yes, those are my Harry Potter goggles.
