New Conversation Starter

My son bought one of these dealios. With his own money--he saved up over the last six months and since his birthday came in the midst of that he was able to get the $$ quickly enough to buy this thing. He bought it on ebay and he got two games, a skin and two cases, and four stylus (styli?) for $90.

Same rules apply: Read first then you get playing time. It is a 1:2 btw, so he can read for one minute and play for two. Anyway fortunately he hasn't read much so he has to read a ton today before we get another scene like this...

But yeah now every conversation is going to start with "in my pókeindex..." or "Neighbor kid one is going to trade me for ____."

I wish I were even remotely interested in this stuff.

  3. You will survive the DS. Here's a convo starter for you, "Dude, did you find the cheat code for level three yet?"

  4. Reading for game time is lame. Just ask anyone under the age of 14. But cute of you for trying. I'll teach Casey how to sneak in his room after you've fallen asleep at 10pm (cuz I know you do) for all the free playing time he wants. He deserves to know these things. After all, he's already 4 years late getting a DS as it is.

    Conversation starter: Hey Casey, Landee is on the phone for you....

  5. He bought it with his own money? My parents were dirt poor, but still found the money for super Mario. It's more for the parents.

  6. DS is my fave traveling tool. It is all about my quiet time. But doood,...way to go Casey for saving the money. That shows you just how much he wanted that thing.
