Check out what I got in the mail:
Those are 3D glasses signed by Kyle Patrick of The Click Five. :) The Click Five, who you all know as my "favourite band," has a new album out right now called TCV... And while you can't get a tangible copy of it yet here in America (Booooooo! I can't get an MP3 autographed!), you can buy/download it from iTunes HERE. So why 3D glasses? Well, lead singer Kyle Patrick just came out with a Solo EP with an accompanying 3D music video!The Click Five has been very good to me in the past:
(I have more Click Five stuff...those are just the ones I have pictures of on this computer)
I bought Greetings from Imrie House and Modern Minds and Pastimes on the days they dropped, I'm only 2 shirts away from fulfilling my "have a Click Five t-shirt for every day of the week" goal, I was part of the original Street Team, a charter member of Get Clicked (the International Click Five Fan Club), and I've been to every concert they've played in Southern California! I've talked about them specifically in these two comics. And I'm often shown wearing a Click Five t-shirt in my regular comics (and in real life photos as well!--look more closely at pictures I've posted in the past...).
I'm very, very happy that The Click Five is doing so well right now! But I'm sad that they haven't come to California (or the West Coast in general) in years now. They're on tour right now and there isn't a single West Coast stop! I'm trying not to take it personally--I know it's probably not the band's fault (these things are usually handled by people "higher up")--but it's hard not to feel a little forsaken. Why no love for California, guys? :(
In other news, I also got my new California ID in the mail the other day. (I'm just getting all SORTS of cool things in the mail lately!).
Here's what my old one looked like:
Terrible.
Here's my new one from last week:
I think it's an improvement. Though I look like I'm just a floating head... Oh well. It reflects my longer hair and my 25 lb weight gain since my last ID. Also, a few of you have asked me how I managed to keep my glasses on for my ID card pic. If you tell the DMV that your glasses have non-reflective lenses, they let you keep them on! Easy as that.

Arrested Development joke. Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice.I finished the game in 6 hours and got ALL of the trophies. Unfortunately, there are no platinum trophies for downloadable games. Ah, well... I have a Costume Quest platinum trophy in my heart!
Also over the weekend, we had a visit from Ramiro's BFF, Ray:
An accurate depiction of Ray.
Ray ended up giving me this as a belated birthday gift:
You have no idea how cool it is! (Both literally and otherwise!). I ended up spending the remainder of my weekend writing upcoming entries for my Professional Blog and playing The Sims 2 and my computer wasn't even warm after! And I was on for HOURS!!! Amazing.
Other stuff: Work, groceries, e-mails, potential interviews, and hacking back my parents' bougainvillea again.
See you next Monday!
