Amongst all the joy and frivolity of the past week, I have a bit of somber news.
We’ve had a death in the family.
This death hits me especially hard. We had spent a lot of time together and I’m very sad.
Yes… my Xbox 360 is dead. Sunday morning I received the dreaded “Red Ring of Death“. The very night before he had been so full of life, providing entertainment for friends at our holiday party. It happened very suddenly and I don’t think he suffered. In his short life, he enjoyed driving and sports games as well as shoot-em ups (as Jess calls them). He will be greatly missed by those of us closest to him.
Funeral arrangements have been made (aka. support has been contacted).
In lieu of flowers, the family has requested you send any spare Xbox 360 consoles you might have to me to try to get me through this tough time.
No more Guitar Hero for me… at least for a while…
Seriously…
Hey, I’m in mourning…
Oh… Xbox… we hardly knew thee.
I will hold a moment of silence the next time I fire up a game.
I think Hallmark is missing a niche here.
um… I’m terribly sorry for your loss?
Oh, good lord…
See, I think you get more sympathy from the dudes in the audience.
puh-lease!
Um, Georgie…? So far you’re the only DUDE in the audience……
You’re in my thoughts at this difficult time…
now you will have time to get your Christmas cards out!
I asked your dad for all of your addresses, but he hasn’t sent them yet!
I wept…I am sooo sorry for your loss. You know where I am if you need support.
ha ha ha! 🙂 Thanks for the laughs this morning. When I first starting ready I was very concerned though!
