So, this weekend was good. The main reason was Saturday. My mom finally took me out of the house and we went to see Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.

I recommend it. I hate musicals, and I loved it. My mom thought it was disturbing, but... well, what did she expect? I find the nauseating sentimentality of damn near every other musical. Except Rent. I have no idea why, I just like it.

We then went shoppin', a bit with my sister since she had to take her car in for a bit and whatnot. My mom dropped me off at Best Buy so I could get Zelda and a tablet, but I could only find the tablet. So, I bought it, ran like mad to Wal-Mart to get the game. That took an ETERNITY to get somebody to open the ******** thing and get my game, then CHECKOUT... then I had to run back, hoping my mom and sister wouldn't be wondering where I was.

Pfft, when has HOPE ever worked wonders?

Anyway, then we went a few other places, then we went back to the theaters to see National Treasure: Book of Secrets. Also fun, and a good bookend to the events of the day.

At least, I wish I could say so, 'cuz we also had to go to Wal-Mart to pick up stuff. Why I didn't wait until we went so I could get my game, I can't say. Besides that I was itching to get it, and feared not getting there in time.

The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass is fun. I haven't played it too far yet, just the first dungeon or so, but I'm loving it so far.

As for the tablet... be prepared, I'm gonna start up again with artsing. As soon as I work out the whole pressure and accuracy stuff with the pen.
