Guess what Matt didn't do today!
Oct. 1st, 2005 01:28 amThat's right... homework! Yeah, there are times when I seriously hate being such a procrastinator.
New developments in my beloved and brand new NES today. First: the left button on one of my controllers stopped working. Curse this cheaply-made third party shit. Second: The savegame for Zelda 2 into which I have put many hours and hard work is now gone. Why? Because I tapped the power button accidentally, turning it on for a nanosecond. And for some reason the human race has yet to understand, you have to hold RESET while turning off NES games to avoid "damaging saved data". So now I have one blank space (read: crater) and two effed-up save files on my cartridge. The crater, of course, is where MY saved game used to be. The other two, that still partially remain, were games that were at the very beginning and hadn't been played at all.
Have I mentioned how much I hate irony?
And in other news: Two of my favorite webcomics have now moved to only once-weekly updates. ><
And finally, I registered for the SATs. And now for that pesky studying issue...
