Subject: Meet The Parents
So tonight, after years of waiting and wondering, it happened. My parents met my wife's in what can only be described as a nerve racking experience. I know that your parents and your wife's both come from different countries, making things a little more complex. My parents know absolutely zero Japanese and her parents know a little more than zero English. Still, don't think the parents felt stress or tension, or if they did, they didn't show it. But man, my stomach was in knots, worried what exactly they'd talk about, if there'd be a cultural faux pas on either side or just a clash of personalities. Me, I felt caught in the middle as I could see where both sides were coming from. It seemed to go off with out a hitch, and everyone was all smiles and seemed utterly delighted to meet each other. Dinner and the ensuing coffee were truly exhausting. For me and Mrs. Bashcraft.
What you missed while you slept:
- Mainstream press realizing what we already knew: Jack is a liar
- New Firmware hits
- Sony rethinking PS3 pricing
I met to count the winners for the F.E.A.R. contest, but with parents meeting each other, I didn't have time. Will try to tomorrow. Until then, deep sleep.
