My long weekend just got really boring...

So I had very simple plans for my long weekend...

I was going to relax with Fallout 3 on Xbox360... then early this morning (Sat) my Xbox decides it's going to have a major GPU failure and give me nothing but a black screen with purple dots. Now I have to send it away.
No matter, I thought, at least I can still go down to the video store and rent the new Indiana Jones movie, since I've been looking forward to seeing it.
Turns out the video store I frequent of late doesn't even have it in yet, despite advertising it as coming out on the 30/10... So I called the video store I used to frequent, just around the corner. The girl there told me that they had it in, and that yes, they definitely had a copy... so I went there, (Within five minutes of the phonecall, mind you) only to find that all the copies were currently out. She assured me that she had just put two copies on the shelf and could not understand where they went. I refrained from yelling at her, or more precisely 'skinning her alive', only because she was pretty damn cute...
Sigh... with all my friends moved away to other cities, what ever am I to do with my now empty long weekend? I just wanted to relax and sit on my ass... Guess that's too much to ask in life isn't it?
"this one, anytime I say love if you wanna say love, uh, say it, and if you say it you might as well say it loud, and if you don't feel like sayin' it, don't say it, but if you feel it, certainly say it..."

NOTE: Everything I write in the P,P&M section are intended to be songs, not poetry.

    Try reading. Left to right. Group of words together makes a sentence. Take tylenol for any headaches, midol for any cramps.
