<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>So I got $80 in Best Buy gift cards. As I didn't get Animal Crossing yesterday, I figured I'd go out and pick it up today.
Yeah.
So I turn on my car, get it defrosting, and go to scrape the windows. Apparently when I was getting OUT of the car, my elbow bumped the door lock button. I was not pleased to realize that my car was locked and idling. I was further displeased when I realized that my spare set of keys is up in Boston.
So much swearing, and a $60 locksmith visit later, I'm off to Best Buy. Only the one near me doesn't have it. Apparently they had two copies today, and because my delay meant I didn't get there until 1:30, no dice.
So I drove about 20 minutes over to the Best Buy in Reston. I knew I was in luck when one of the guys working there asked me what I was looking for, and got an utterly blank stare when I told him.
At this point I was just annoyed. Realized that I wasn't going to get it from Best Buy, so I drove to the mall, to go to EBX. I'll just say the mall was just as much fun as the christmas shopping I did the last few days there. Oooh boy.
Moral of this story? Uh...well, keep a spare set of keys handy, I guess. At least I've still got my gift cards.
I do have AC now, if any of you guys want to set up some trades.</div>

"For one thing to live, another thing must be killed. God, or whoever is responsible, deserves respect for creating such a system. It reveals that we cannot take all matters into our own hands. We need only to focus on doing our best--a simple, yet profound way to live, is it not?"
