I Got "Pwned" Or So They Say

Saturday I went to a Smash Brothers competition held at Gamestop here in Novi. It was a LOT of fun. I expected something small scale since it was inside a tiny store, but I got there 30 minutes early and there were already 30 people waiting to be registered. By 2:00 it was packed with a lot of people waiting. They had 2 TV sets, so 2 competitions going at a time to narrow down brackets. There were kids there that were 6 or 7, to people in their mid 20's. I'm not ashamed at all, because this game is amazing and I love it.

All of the older people stayed together and the bratty little kids did their competition. When it was my turn, this 13 or 14 year old said I had to battle him, and he said "oh great, I'm going to loose". Actually, he beat me and it was very hard. So, I got eliminated the first round by someone much younger but it was a lot of fun. The overall grand prize was a paid copy of Smash Brothers Brawl when it comes out December 3rd. I had a really good time though.

Today Erica and I went to the Detroit Science Center to see the Human Body exhibit. They had 20 dead bodies on display for science, some with all the skin taken off so you could see the muscles, and some with the skin still on. They were all Chinese people at one time. There was also a small room with a warning on the outside that the displays were graphic. We walked in and they had fetuses in jars on display. I guess they died? They had about 5 during different stages of preganacy so you could see what is formed at what point in the pregnancy. It was really intersting and educational to see (even though it sounds gross).

Now I'm just relaxing, thinking about putting together a nightstand I bought at IKEA earlier today. I need to go ahead and get it put together.
