When I say new baby, I'm not talking about a child. I mean i'm buying a new guitar. I've been thinking about this alot and finally i've decided to get it. It's another Jackson guitar, its a pro series, the Jackson SLS3 in White. I called the guitar shop last week asking how much it would come up to, he searched it up and said it'll be $1370.00 + Tax (so roughly around $1500.00). Thats alot of money but I feel that its well worth the price, it also comes with a hardshell case... not like I need it but atleast i'll have one if I need to carry it around, also it'll fit my Jackson DKMGT which is a bonus.

I'll save what I can until the 20th of November (thats when i'm going in, giving a deposit) and hopefully i'll have it in mid December. I'll pay it off completely once it comes in. I'm also thinking of buying another guitar amp. I've been looking at the Line 6 Spider IV 120 amp. I have a Spider II 120, but this one has much more presets which is nice. That amp is going for about 399.99-499.99. One or the other, I forget, i'll most likely buy that a month after I get my guitar.

I'm also thinking of buying ANOTHER Jackson guitar, but that won't be for another several months. Its a Jackson RR5 in Ivory, w/ Gold Hardware. That'll be about $1450 and also comes with a case which is good cause I have a JS30RR (Same body shape). And if I can, i'll try and get a Jackson Christian Olde Wobers' 7 String guitar or an ESP. Haven't decided yet. But i'm excited to get my SLS3. Can't stop thinking about it.

Anyways, enough about guitars and amps. I've been enjoying my 4 days off work. I'm not looking forward to going in tomorrow but ohwell, I need the money. Bought a couple things today aswell as the past 2 weeks. I watched Saw VI on the weekend and I was very disappointed. Every year I keep telling myself that i'm going to stop watching it but I always find myself going to see the next. The whole timeI was laughing at the torture scenes, in my opinion, they were very boring looking, i'm sure I can think of better ways for someone to die.

Also during the previews, there was this movie called Forth Kind, its about Alien abduction, it looks really good but here's the thing. I believe in aliens but i'm terrified of them. For those who haven't seen the preview, check it out on Youtube, come back on my blog, and let me know what you thought of it. Bah, i'm getting shivers just thinking about it.

Last Thursday, a buddy from work found a doll and decided to stick a knife through its head, he showed me and I asked if I could have it so I can add my flavour. I brought it back to my work station, pulled out my xacto knife from my pocket, started cutting out the eyes and mouth, took some black marker, coloured in the edges of the eyes and mouth then grabbed some red marker and start adding the blood onto her face. It was awesome, and to top it all off, I put the Charles Manson "X" on her forhead and left her on the Lunch room table for the morning shift.

The next day, my boss was saying who was responsible for this, I admitted and felt really bad for doing it but she was messing with me and told everyone working that morning not to say anything. Good thing too cause i'm still on probation. They all had a good laugh and I disposed the doll. But later that night I decided to cut up a Barbie doll and 2 Bratz dolls but threw them out when my shift finished. I took a picture of the Barbie doll, i'll link the picture aswell as the guitar i'm getting.

Currently Listening to: End Transmission - A.F.I.

Its been a while since my last blog update, i just don't have the time anymore. I barely play online too. I'm either busy working and by the time i get home i'm exhausted or just hanging out with this girl from work.

So I have a cold and it sucks, I must have gotten it either from walking to work in the rain (windy too) or just running in and out of the building (work) to greet donors. Its not as bad as it was a few days ago, I've been taking really good care of myself, bundling up, wearing my scarf and a long sleeve under my jacket. At night i'm wearing socks, PJ pants and a Thermal longsleeve. Ontop of that i'm taking cough medicine twice a day. I'm feeling a little better, i don't sound like seth rogan whenI laugh. haha.

So I found out that Toys R' Us is doing the "buy 2 get 1 free" deal (thanks to Scianix-Black). I called them yesterday asking if it was only available in the states. She said the sale starts tomorrow. So i'm going to wait till Tuesday, I'm going to buy Uncharted 2 and Brutal Legend, my free game will be Guitar Hero Smash Hits. Looking forward to playing GH:SM. I played GH1 and GH2 a couple days ago and had a hard time playing it, there were no hammer ons and pull offs and ontop of that the music highway was tiny, i could barely see the notes. Haha but it did bring back old memories.

Last night i watched Zombieland with the girl i'm seeing (Jocelyn), it was really good. I was very suprised on how funny it was. The little captions/rules reminded me of codemaster's GRiD and Dirt games. For those who haven't seen it yet, I recommend you watch it if you need a good laugh aswell as some blood and guts flying all over the place. Oh and you'll see a special appearance from a very funny actor....

anyways... here's the update...

Currently Listening to: Life in the fast lane - the Eagles

Its been a while since my last blog so I thought i would i'd fill in since then. Well in my last blog, I mentioned that I got a job working at Goodwill, my first official day was on August 30th which was on a Sunday. The assist. manager showed us around and got us working in different stations, she also mentioned that we'll be working there for about 3-4 weeks. I got the donor greeting door. What I basically do is greet the donors within 10 seconds when the pull up, take their donations but also tell them what I can accept and what not to accept, sort through and put everything in the right totes then once they're full, I wheel the totes to the other work stations for them to look through and price them.

I managed to not get a b1tchy donor till 2 days ago. A couple pulled up in their pick up truck with this piece of crap dresser, it was clearly not sellable, huge chunks were missing. I told them I can't except it and told them why. They were pissed, saying that what if a Homeless needed a dresser. While they were b1tchingi had a J.D. moment from Scrubs, tilted my head and the day dreamed began. Why would a homeless have a dresser? would he put it by his box shelter? anyways I told them to bring it to the homeless shelter. They drove off and I made sure they didn't dump it in the back. As they drove off, one of my co-workers ran to the front making sure they didn't dump it there. Which they didn't cause there were 2 undercover cop cruisers pulling over speeders by the store. Can't wait to get paid this Friday! (9/11!!)

Anyways, the job is super easy, I did my first over time which was on Labor day (I signed up cause I knew i wouldn't be doing anything that day) Now I have a 3 day break which is nice. Got to sleep in which was awesome, that is until my cat woke me up around 9am but it was all good, I fell back asleep and woke up with him sleep under the blanket beside me. LOL.

I platnum'd Batman Arkham Asylum last night, the only problem I had was the 2nd last Challenge, and the Invisible Predator Trophy (Wouldn't give it to me, had to play it about 10 times in a row for it to unlock. stupid glitch!).

Now i'm going to list all the new goodies...

Unearth - the Oncoming Storm

Unearth - III: In the Eyes of Fire

Some people just don't have opinions. Like Sk8ter_213.
Sk8ter_213 must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could Sk8ter_213 possibly have for not rating a single film?
