It really was, too.

It started when I woke up at the unholy hour of 8:30 a.m. Why would I do such a thing? No reason unless I absolutely had to, and today I had to, because about two months ago I was pulled over and ticketed for driving with three-month expired tags. Pretty stupid, huh? Anyway, today was my scheduled court appearance, since it’s apparently necessary to appear in court for EVERY MINOR DRIVING INFRACTION when you live in Murfreesboro. Seriously, can’t I just send the city a check? Why do I have to go stand in front of a judge just to tell him “yes, I was driving with expired tags.” Makes no damn sense.

My total payment to the city of Murfreesboro was 115.50 USD. My fine was a whopping two dollars, while the goddamned courtroom fee accounted for the other $113.50. And… I think I just answered my own question.

When I returned home I was VERY tired, having woken up a good deal earlier than I’m used to. What better thing to do when suffering from a lack of sleep? Record an episode of MAP, obviously. For all those who are tired of hearing us shout “worst podcast ever,” worry no longer – MAP Episode 43 really is a piece of literal shit. I was asleep for the most of it, and I think the rest of the panel might have been as well.

After that I took a nap. It was a good nap, too.

After that nap, I played some SPIRIT TRACKS! Hooray for theme-week relevance! I still haven’t played enough to offer any impressions, (just beat the first temple) but it’s a hell of a lot of fun, I can tell you that right now. Still not the biggest fan of touch controls. It’s not that I dislike them, I just view them as an over-simplification. Really, though, I can’t express how happy I am just to be playing a Zelda game again, even if it is a handheld title. All it takes is for me to hear that Princess Zelda theme, and I’m hooked again. Gah, me and my shameless fanboyism…

Anyway. I finally ate some food, so now I’m just… really tired again. I think it’s time to attempt a GOOD night’s sleep. ‘Till tomorrow, faithful readers!
