Dammit, Jack. What did I ever do to you?

Sunday past I spent the night at a colleague's place. It was a good time all around, but I intended it to be one night. Nature had other plans, however. On Monday we got the blizzard that had recently torn through the North-Eastern USA, leaving a trail of corpses in its wake. I couldn't leave during the blizzard, and the next day the road conditions were so poor that even the buses weren't running, so I couldn't get home then, either. I didn't get home until Wednesday. WEDNESDAY. Gawd.

The worst part of all? I've become absolutely addicted to Diddy Kong Racing DS. And I don't have a DS. This will be torturous. I have been reading reviews of DKRDS, and they are mostly pretty poor. If they were going to rate it badly for its poor touchscreen implementation, then that would be one thing. But the major complaint seemed to be "it's not Mario Kart."

...

OF COURSE IT'S NOT! I mean, how dare it take a different approach to the kart racer genre, huh?
