singstar debacle

i am obsessed with singstar. i know i have mentioned this before but this week a new version came out and i was obsessed with obtaining it.

originally the game was going to come out on march 18th. shannon and i were going to go to best buy and make the purchase. on tuesday, i checked the website and it said the release date was actually going to be on march 19th. on wednesday, i called the store close to my office and they didn't have it yet, but they anticipated it would arrive by the end of the day. so, i stopped by the best buy on my way home. guess what? they didn't have it.

yesterday, i checked the best buy website to see if any stores in the area had received the game yet. sure enough, every store but the store by work and on my way home had it in stock. since i had a doctor's appointment yesterday after work, i ordered it for pick up at the location by my doctor's office (the doctor is a completely different story - this week has been a mess!). after work, i headed to best buy, brought the target ad (it was on sale at target), got my game and headed home.

when john got home he wanted to know why i wasn't playing. i told him that i promised shannon that i wouldn't play until saturday when she and dan come over.

and then he wanted to know why i was so obsessed with getting a game that would not be played until saturday...

because i needed new microphones!!! which was NOT a good enough excuse. at least to him.
