Wow. A busy night, but a good one.
Got taxes done - my initial calculations were a bit off, but we're still getting back about $1,870 after processing fees. Thanks to the wonders of online tax preparation and direct deposit, it should all be in my checking account within a couple of weeks or so.
Also beat Kingdom Hearts tonight, after about a 3-month hiatus from playing the game; getting a GameCube with Metroid Prime will delay other games like that. :) However, it was good to go back and finish KH, since it's one of the few over-the-shoulder 3D games I can stand (the other's Super Mario Sunshine). Of course, by the end of the game, my character had a level in the low 80s and the most powerful weapon in the game, so the final battles weren't all that tough, or even time-consuming, really. I pulled a Dan and went out of my way to remove all challenge from the game, and I'd say I was successful. :)

Pulling Dans.
There's the DOA-based definition, where trying to hit someone, only to be JUST out of range and pummeled for it.
There's the RPG-based definition referred to above, where I like to power-level and whip out the Black Dick of Justice on the end bosses and laugh because I'm so powerful they can't touch me.
I think we even came up with a DBZ-based definition too, but I can't think of it right now, it's starting to get late. ^_^

Pulling a Dan sounds alot more fun than pulling a Seth, where you remove all hope of enjoying a game by bullheadedly refusing any outside source of information and eventually getting so mad that the controller must meet the swift justice of carpet impact.
Speaking of which, I should beat Prime eventually.
