suhWEET


Christmas came early this year at our house. On our anniversary this past October we discovered a game called Rockband at Best Buy. We loved it so much we pulled out every giftcard we had and saved our pennies for the rest to buy it and a playstation 3 by Thanksgiving.
And hooray! We made our goal.

Unfortunately, Rockband comes in a large rectangular box that is carefully packaged to fit every part of the drumset, the microphone, and guitar. So if a part happens to be broken or, say, the guitar strumming spring doesn't work, all those fun little parts have to go back into the box for exchange. Since our request for a permit to operate a machine that would organize the stuff was denied, it was up to us to play a grand old game of Tetris.

Half an hour later, I'd managed to cram everything except the guitar box back into the thing. If Target doesn't like the new packaging job, I'd be glad to dump it all out on the customer service counter and reorganize. Somehow I get the feeling they just want all the parts back, ya know? And that's what they're gonna get.

Boxster says hi.
