Rock on! I saw your Fitbit numbers catch fire last night, so I figured you must be playing. I ended up going to karaoke and then watching the State of the Union address...not exactly an active night. :P

Yeah it was a good time. I think I might play some more tonight but I'll focus on whoring out a song to try and get a AAA.

Man, I need to change my diet up or something, I fucking weighed myself yesterday and I was a solid 242 pounds

Updated the OP with my scores! I guess I technically won on Twilight Zone but that was about it.

Alright playah, what would you like to play this week?

I just checked and I'm only technically two songs behind as far as songs on Extreme goes - Love Shine and Hysteria 2001. There's a bunch of shit that I missed on Supernova that I'm probably going to have to play on X3 since there's no way I can get a Supernova in my little cabinet.

I actually played some last night. Kiss Kiss Kiss is actually somewhat difficult. I was not able to FC it and it took me a few tries just to get an A rather than a B. I ended up with over 60 greats and a few NCs for a DP of 628. I'll have to work on that some more.

I tried replaying a few other songs to see if I could do better. I was not successful. The best I was able to do was My Sweet Darlin' where I was able to convert to a FC by turning my previous 1 miss into a great. Unfortunately, I also turned 1 perfect into a great, so I ended up with the same DP. I was also within about 2-3 greats of my previous Twilight Zone score, but I couldn't improve it. Anything else I played was not notable.

In a silly aside, the clock turned over past midnight while I was playing, so I've got a big jump on my Fitbit steps for today now. Speaking of which, I think we're still waiting for you to join our Workweek Hustle for this week. This may finally be my week...maybe.

As for a song this week, how about WWW.BLONDEGIRL? No particular reason.

You guys are doing another hustle this week? I either never got an invite or the FitBit app is fucking me. May I get another invite?

I'm doing a 2-hour racquetball session today so I won't be able to play much Did but I do plan on working on my pads tonight to see if I can fix up the 2P side a little. I'll do what I can to get some sets in on Wednesday -- unfortunately my Thursday is booked with work shit :(

www.blondegirl (I love it when phpBB turns that shit into a clickable link) is fine. I would suggest doing La Copa De La Vida in honor of the superb owl but unfortunately we've already done it.

Jeesh, these new TLDs are getting out of control.
A normality test:
+++ATH
If you are no longer connected to the internet, you need to apply more wax to your modem: it'll make it go faster.
If you find this funny, you're a nerd.
If neither of the above apply, you are normal. Congratulations.

Hmm. I guess neither one of us played the song last week. Go ahead and pick a new song for this week though...and we'll have two to play. :)

Played some didder tonight while I continued my basement cleaning project.

I actually shampooed the carpet and couches on the pool table side of the basement over the weekend as well as laundered the cushion covers for the couches.

Tonight, I replaced the covers on the cushions and put back all the things I had moved off the carpet to clean it. I played a few games in between some of those tasks. Then, I moved stuff off the hard floor and mopped it. I played more didder while I waited for the floor to dry since I had mopped myself to that side of the basement.

I was actually playing pretty well tonight. I logged scores for both this week's and last week's songs. I got a 452 on Champions (10 greats) and a 547 on www.blondegirl (11 greats).

I was feeling pretty good, so I replayed a few other songs. I improved my Twilight Zone score to a 563. You're still winning, Merk, but by less. I only missed 2 steps on that run...damn drills. I actually managed to hit all the drills on an earlier run, but I had gotten a pattern backward and missed a couple steps I usually would get. So...still have yet to get the FC on tihs song.

I also played My Sweet Darlin'. I got 8 greats, but my phone was on the other side of the basement (across the wet floor). I decided I'd try again after the floor dried to see if I could get the same or a better score and get a picture (I usually take pictures so I can remember when I post). I actually managed to get a 5 for a DP of 497. So I've stolen that W from you, Merk...for now.

Any SDG is a pretty big deal to me, and improving on one in the same night felt pretty spectacular.
