May. 2nd, 2006 05:17 pmI have made my brother very happy today.
Two months ago, for his birthday, I promised him I'd pay up to fifteen dollars for his next video game. Today he took me up on it, and dragged me around to about three different stores before we found the game he'd been looking for for six months, Final Fantasy Seven. Cue happy little brother, who will finally be able to play this game all the way through. Apparently his last copy (also bought used) was so scratched up that it froze on the first disk right before the epic battle, and instead of having all three disks it had two copies of the second disk.
But I have done my older sister duty for the day and made him happy. We also managed to have a good talk as he was dragging me around to various stores, so the time was not wasted.

Rule Number One: Make big sister's life miserable.
Rule Number Two: See rule number one.
Rule Number Three: Always obey rule number two, all other rules are meant to be broken.
