Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

What Pete adorabled, especially the well-wishes for ita.
First damn a-word of the new year.
I suppose you should be congratulated.
But not.

I'm glad it was just a battery, sorry for the hassle. I hope the procedure works too (uh, not the battery installation part.)
Elizabeth, Jonathan and Nathan were in my parents' lists, but Sara was the only girlname contender for me.
The husband of a friend has a name (not this exact one) like Shelby Williamson V. He goes by Will in all but the formalist of paperwork. Except his sports buddies who call him Vicki. Which has something to do with Pooh, but I've never figured it out. Anyway, he confuses the hell out of new employers.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I can be counted on for the important things.
Oh! And I'm trying to convince my soon-to-be housemates of the importance of getting an X-Box. I want to shoot some zombies, dammit!

ita, Battery replacement is at least not as bad, I'd assume, as starter replacement. Sorry that you needed it at all (and happy delayed birthday wishes!)
Taking mom out for her bday dinner tonight. Fun?

Noah, ACK. DO NOT do that to the moms!

I feel like I started a bidding war.

Indeed. It's a moral imperative. Make sure you get Live too so we can go zombie slaying and rope the newly addicted Cass in too.
And I will push you into the zombie horde if you call me adorable in-game.

You realize this is only an incentive, right?

Because books.

I can see the outcome of this so clearly.
Ben still hasn't let me play zombie killing yet. Eleven-year-olds can be so selfish.
