Disney Infinity is the coolest fucking video game ever. No the concept is nothing new, it's Skylanders with Disney figures, but it's still fucking cool. End of discussion. Hey guess what we did for 7 hours yesterday? I first learned about DI about a year ago. Then saw the E3 trailers and play demos. I knew I wanted it. The release date got changed a few times, but finally it was released yesterday. Which in of itself is weird because normally they don't do releases on a Sunday.

We got up, I made breakfast for everyone (yes, everyone as KBF and the kid were here), and then me and B went out. She needed to pick up fabric for her costume still. We went to the nice thrift store that's around and found two sheets and a canopy that will work perfect. A third of the price of buying comparable fabric at Jo-Anns. We know because that was our second stop of the day. Seriously, one of the fabrics is $10 a yard and she has at least 4 yards of it. Is the stuff from Jo-Anns a better quality? Probably but seeing as she needs this for 5 minutes of screentime, neither of us wanted to shell out serious money. We did get some paint and a couple other little things there though. In total her costume cost about $25. Perfect amount for what it is. Mine for the show I had someone else make and it was a lot more.

After the fabric store we hit Best Buy. We also had to stop next door at Petsmart where are friend works. B forgot her sweatshirt at the party Saturday night and our friend was kind enough to grab it. I wanted to see if DI was out or if the Sunday release date on Amazon was an Amazon thing only. I am used to things coming out on Tuesdays not Sundays. But there it was. B had no idea what it was and was looking at me like I was nuts about to spend $100 on a video game system. The only saving grace was it is Disney.

We got it home, plugged in, and she was hooked. We only did Monsters University. We got the main game, the three included figures, and the 'Sidekicks' add on pack. That gives us Sully, Mike W, Jack Sparrow, Barbosa, and both the Incredibles. There are still a dozen more if we want them all. We played for 3.5 hours.

Headed out for some food. The kid was being a bitch again. I'm sorry you need to work and we are going out for dinner. I ended up bringing her home a burger which she ate when she got home, but I really felt like it was unappreciated. This is life kid, work, school, and all that goes with it. Welcome to adulthood. Don't blame me for it. We ended up playing more when we got back from dinner. But first I did some work and B started in on her costume. I had to do timesheets and status reports for people. Another 3 hours of playing followed though. It's easy to get lost in it - hey it's not called 'Infinity' for nothing.

Went to bed. It was hot as fuck here yesterday and we didn't want to even touch the bed let alone each other.

I am onsite the next three days for a client, followed by two at home which is why I am up so early. Luckily they are VERY local. This will keep me off the radar for a while thank god.
