<\/a>I keep telling him that this is his earned money and it’s his to do with as he see’s fit.\u00a0 And not to worry so much.\u00a0 We’ll always have enough money to put a roof over our head and food on the table.\u00a0 Just not a new laptop! lol<\/p>\nSo I finally convinced him that with his up and coming birthday money plus the money he’s saved & earned… he can buy the PS3 he’s wanted (wanted ever since Sex God brought over HIS PS3 for a week when Playstation was offline & let my boys play with it).\u00a0 I’ve been replying that he can buy his own for weeks now and today he brought it up again.<\/p>\n
And I realized if I didn’t pop him over to GameStop right after dinner it would get put off and put off until his REAL birthday.\u00a0\u00a0 With only 2 weeks of school left I thought this would really make his summer.\u00a0 So off we went!<\/p>\n
I love my GameStop.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42\u00a0 They recognize me!\u00a0 No really, they do!\u00a0 Its not like I go in so often that, of course they recognize me; the harassed parent who buys her kids electronics.\u00a0 It’s that I flirt and smile and so of course they remember me!\u00a0 Hee hee.\u00a0 Such cute Cubs those employees!\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Anyway.. less than 3 hours before we walked in they had lowered the price of a NEW PS3 by $50.00.\u00a0 Putting it into the price range of their mid-memory used one!\u00a0 Nice!\u00a0 Then Oliver comes in from the back with one that includes the exact game Luke’s wanted to play (which would have been another $60) and it has twice the memory.\u00a0\u00a0 Well, we snatched that up!<\/p>\n
Hooking it up wasn’t too difficult (once I got past the point of realizing the reason nothing would turn on after I plugged it all in was because in switching this plug with that plug & putting this plug into the extension and that plug into the strip…. I’d inadvertently plugged the strip into itself!).\u00a0 And Luke took over at that point like a master!<\/p>\n
When he popped the game in I recognized it and asked him if he’d not played it already when Sex God lent him his consol?\u00a0 He swore he’d not but it nagged at me.\u00a0 Until I realized it wasn’t HIM I’d watched play this game, it was Sex God!\u00a0 With a grin I told Luke,\u00a0 “Well if you want any tips on how to navigate it, let me know.\u00a0 I know them all for the first two levels!”<\/p>\n
I soooo never thought I’d ever utter THOSE words!<\/p>\n
