I’m lacking in the post department this week. For some reason, I can’t think of anything to talk about, so I guess I’ll just have another random post about… randomness.

A couple notable Capcom games came out this week in the US. One is Phoenix Wright 3, which I already have, but I figured I’d order another copy to get the cheap-o preorder bonus and trade the game off or something. As crappy as it looks, I still want my own little plushie Phoenix… and I’m apparently not the only one. The other one is Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros Treasure, a new adventure-puzzle game for the Wii. It probably would have been an overlooked game if it weren’t for the entire gaming news industry hyping it up. The reviews are in, and they’re good, and now I really want this game. Like, I want to play I want to play it this weekend. Which kinda sucks, since there’s no major deals and I can’t stand buying stuff at retail. Luckily, there’s a 10% off Gamestop coupon floating around, so I can at least get tax covered AND still get instant gratification.

Not much else going on, aside from television watching and wedding planning. My mind is too preoccupied these days, so I think I’m not going to be able to come up with any sort of cool Halloween costumes. Ah well, maybe I’ll just be a ninja again. Anyways, I need to get to bed…

New thing I learned today: To frog a knitted item means to take it and rip it apart, usually because of a mistake or to use the yarn material for another project. It’s called “frogging” because frogs say “ribbit”, like “rip it”.

Ravi’s gf Jessica mentions frogging in her knitting blog, and she explained it to Ravi, who explained it to me. Apparently, knitting is a popular blog topic… at least that’s what people at Bloglines seem to notice.
