Okay, prediction of my day:

6:15 Alarm sounds
6:45 Get out of bed. Swear.
7:00 Leave house, having not had breakfast, or even a cup of tea, but at least I made lunch.
7:45 Arrive at work.
3:00 Leave work
3:35 Get home
3:36 Head into town
3:42 Swear about the traffic.
3:54 Swear about the bank.
4:08 Buy some speaker stands.
4:46 Get home, realise GameCube has arrived.
4:58 Having gotten into the box, I look at my Gamecube, before moaning to Lisa about my belly bleeding because I'm so hungry.
5:04 Set up GameCube
5:07 Play a game, Super Monkey Ball is already at home, so it might be that one.
5:30 Eat something.
6:00 Play more Gamecube, because it might just be fun.

I'll likely spend most of tomorrow working, get home and continue playing Warrior Kings for a while on PC.

I have no plans as yet to purchase a GC, though the girlfriend is putting the pressure on recently, so I keep smashing her face into her SNES...

Yeah, but I have assigned well over ten minutes to get into the box. ;-)

And remember, the only reason I'm not gettign an Xbox is because I tried to lift one, but it was too heavy, and it made me poo from the heavy.

I'm sure it is. I think I finally have cause to buy a 3d accelerator card. Since it runs like crap. My pc stats are good enough otherwise (pIII 866mhz, 384mb 133mhz SDRAM, 64mb graphics card etc etc etc.). This is the first game where i think a 3d card will make a significant difference...

That's probably because I stole it from you. A damn funny post about why the Xbox was crap.
