Last week, Jeff let us know that he would be taking most of this week off from work. Oh, how exciting! What is the special occasion, we wondered. The answer surprised us. The new Starcraft 2 would be released on Tuesday at 12 Midnight and he needed the time to level up and master the game!!!! That's when you know...! He wondered if we would mind if he packed up his gaming equipment and joined us for his vacation. This way, he wouldn't have to worry about food! Well of course we wouldn't mind!!!! Have I come a long way, or what?!!!!
So last night Jeff and Meg traveled out at 11:45 to be right on time for the midnight release. They weren't the only ones either! Apparently, the original Starcraft came out about 12 years ago and this new version has been all the hype for 6 long years. Unfortunately the Walmart lady COULDN'T FIND the box this hot commodity was shipped in. There were about 5 other customers waiting including a worker bee from Sheetz who was sent there by his boss to snag a copy. The race was on to get to the other Walmart! There everyone was able to get their hands on a copy but the clerk couldn't find the posters that were supposed to go with it. Darn...
Here is Jeff settled in for the duration. He's got a glass of cold soda and his chew. He said the game is great! Somehow it is all connected to Facebook and all of his High School buddies are getting in on it. It must be wonderful to have a hobby that one can be this passionate about. I say, enjoy it while you can. Happy Gaming!
