gosh, i spent my weekend mostly looking for brian's gift. on saturday and sunday, i drove to best buy, fry's electronics, ultimate electronics, circuit city, and then to best buy again. i finally made my decision on buying this at best buy. what is really cool about this cd player is that you can upload images to it using your computer. i thought that was something neat that brian can play around with. it was a hard decision, i don't know anything about car stereos, and i don't know what the hell is needed to get a car stereo, so i was there at most of the stores asking a lot of questions. i was going to get this, but it didn't have a detachable face plate. it would have been cool if it had a detachable face plate because best buy was going to match ultimate electonic's price. anyway, i didn't get the sony because i knew if i were to get that, then i might as well put a sign on brian's truck that says something like, 'go ahead and steal the cd player'. it's stupid that people just break into vehicles just to steal petty little things. about a month ago some thief broke into my car, and stole my whole collection of cds that i ever owned. at first, i was mad, but then again, i thought shit, they could have the damn thing, they seem to be so fucking desperate to steal some damn cds.

somehow during my search to find brian's gift, brian and i managed to fit in some time to watch a movie. we watched the last samurai. the movie was awesome. i loved every minute of it. it was kind of neat that the movie theatre wasn't packed. the night that we went to go watch the movie, they were having the aps electric light parade on central, so i guess every one was busy watching that, because after we got out of the movie there was a whole shit load of people in line to buy tickets. that was my weekend, spent a lot of time driving, watching movies, and i even had some time to wrap a few gifts.
