This week (and weekend) has been a struggle to say the least. Mainly spent on catching up on work and finding some nice fitting pregnancy pants.

My friend Ana got a pair when she got pregnant and she said that they were the most comfy things. She was right, they are! It’s been hard to wear regular jeans and I’ve already outgrown my fat-Anna Jeans. It’s nice to be able to wear pants you know that aren’t going to put pressure on your abdomen. Because it is very very uncomfortable.

I also went ahead and picked up Thrillville for the WII. My baby sister Katrin likes to play simulator type games and what can be more fun then building your own themepark? I’ve always liked games like that. Also my baby sister and mom have an American Wii, so the only games they can play are basically the ones I can send them. It’s a PAL and NTSC thing.

Kim has been busy playing Assassins creed, the first one and the second one. It is his type of game. Stealthy, Jumpy and thieve. He has always been a huge fan of Tomb Raider, Thief and games like that. He describes Assassins creed 2 as a mix of Thief, Tomb Raider and Fable.

There is a significant difference between 1 and 2 mind you. All thou the spirit of the game is the same, the story is more developed and intriguing. You can swim in water that for some reason you couldn’t in the first one. The Syncs are longer in between. You have access to a healer and you can edit your equipment. Many things are different but as for the functionality it is the same. Your camera still gets in the way and you still have the same objectives as you did in the first one (plus some extra added)

I cracked up when the main characters Uncle comes out of no where and introduces him self in this manner

“It’s me! MARIO” with a broado italiano accento.

This weekend was horrible in managing to get good deals on production cels! I guess some people just wanted them more I guess. There was one incident that I fell asleep and missed the bidding entirely, but, alas I managed to score me one! Great Teacher Onikuza! GTO for short. It is one of my all time favorite anime show! I can’t wait till it arrives so I can hang it up! :3

As for monster pets. These are my new designs that will be placed on the CDE prepaid card. It’s been a while since we updated them and we figured it was time to offer something new. Being a fan and collecting monster high dolls, I figured that I’d make pets to honor that style and fashion. At times I wished I was younger, because todays youth has much more fun clothes then I did growing up. More colors, crazy accessories and awesome prints.  I guess I just sit back and let my future crazed teen have that kind of fun!

As in terms of playing videogames this weekend. Nawh, I’ve enjoyed watching Kim play assassins creed. I spent my time finishing up work and just re organizing things around the house. I’ve also took the opportunity to relax. My weeks are usually so busy that I rarely get to see straight.

Anyways, here is a little preview on the new pets!

Enjoy!
