Well, we've gone from a rainy but sort of warm 56 degrees to a dry but freezing 20 degrees. It's those sharp drops that pretty much slap you in the face and then knee you right in the crotch that say hello best, I think.
In the past two weeks, almost every single time during my lunch hour that I've gone out shopping, I've run into a store that is just stocking either the Wii or the PS3. Seems to me, don't call, don't ask, just stroll in to your favorite Target/Walmart/Whatever at lunch and play the odds. Most stores get new shipments around 11 am or so, and if my luck is any indication, that's really your best bet for getting one of these things. You must become the hunter, stalking during their weakest moment - the unpacking of the UPS boxes. Then you strike.
Or something.

Sigh, lots of work to do.
You go have a day.
