Final Fantasy

I met my husband playing Final Fantasy XI. He's a Hume and I'm a Tarutaru. Here is a picture of us sitting together, both as White Mages (Healers) of the highest level (75). I can't tell you the hours and money I've.. We've.. invested into this game. Graaf more than myself even. It's a fantastic way to spend your time. You meet people from all over the world. It builds troubleshooting skills, and forces you to work with others to accomplish goals. Let no parent say that video games are a waste of time until they've accomplished organizing 64 people in time zones across the world into a civil group for 6 hours to kill 1 monster that MIGHT drop 1 good item. It's about the teamwork and the feeling of acomplishment at the end of the day. I'd recommend it to anyone.

Hybrid Cars

I have a facination with the hybrid auto. I first loved the Prius. I still do. I want one, so if anyone out there has a Prius they want give me or finance for me, I'm willing. The I grew fond of the Insight. An odd design, yes, but still very cool.

Anime

My favorite Anime of all time is Fushigi Yuugi. It's a japanese television series that will blow you away. The title translates to Mysterious Play, and it can be found in many stores, however .. it's pricy. The 52 episode series is broken into two parts. Episodes 1-25 and 26-52. Each of those costs 200$ a peice. Then there is a conintuation of the series that is 1 disk with 4 episodes. It costs about 70$. Then there are 2 OVA's, each costing about 100$. THAT IS .. unless you visit my friends at Next Day Anime where I bought episodes 1-52 PLUS the 4 episode continuation for ... wait for it .... 80 BUX!!! I'm so excited. I will be returning to them to buy the OAV's AND to pick up my second favorite series of all time Flame of Recca.

Wii

This is the game console of the future. It's wireless remote has you balencing broomsticks in your hand and picking people noses with virtual tweezers. It's great for party games or for platforming Mario across the screen alone. Try and find one if you can. There's nothing like it out there. They run 250$ if you can get it without a bundle. Target's been known to sell 24 of it's shelves the moment they set them out. Luckily I preordered mine! You can't even buy the console directly from Nintendo!
