26 hours or so later

One of the kids broke the drum kit (separated the wire for one of the cymbals). That’s the cherry on top of a crappy family set of days lately.

Getting a band together

So I picked up Guitar Hero: World Tour today (using Christmas funds), and I’ve got so say: good times.

Short thoughts from night one:
- The fact that Sara and I could play together was AWESOME.
- Six drum hits (five pads/one pedal) is AWESOME.
- The fact that I now have two guitars (so I can finally work co-op on GH3) and two microphones (so the kids can duet on their new Disney Sing It) is AWESOME.
- Bon Jovi’s “Livin’ On A Prayer” is TOTALLY AWESOME. That song was practically MADE for a Guitar Hero game.

There’s a first

I feel the need to note (belatedly, at this point) that for the first time in my 30 years, I have a live Christmas tree.

Man, first the dog, now this… Julie’s getting spoiled. I need to dial it back a bit. :)
