Atari's 2600 hooked me on gaming, and I spent my youth in every #arcade I could find. Much love for 80s pop culture, video games, books, music, and movies. Avid fan of VHS, vinyl, Tank Girl comics, and AFX slot racing. #eatTheRich
I love listening to albums from start to finish. Today was Missing Persons' Hollywood Lie

Each year I try to do some baking. It seems like a Christmasy thing to do.
This year we went for 3D cookies. The success was minor, but the taste was full-on Xmas cookie! lol

I've shoveled my driveway 3 times in the last 3 weeks. That's more than I've had to shovel in the last decade, lol

Stopped by a local retailer who sets up several model train dioramas each holIiday season. Really nice work although none of the multiple lines were running

Saw a Regal Theater mystery movie the other night. I'd never been to this theater. Full of classic charm

Stopped at our local record shop today. Picked up 2 Black Sabbath records and a Babymetal album for a past Record Store Day

A week before Christmas and my local grocer has Valentines Day all lined up next to Xmas stuff. Not going to sell much at these prices

Each year I dedicate a tree to the CN show, Uncle Grampa. It's from an era when television didn't totally suck

I've had to shovel my driveway twice in the last 2 days. Not sure that's happened in the last 15 years. And I live in a snowy sort of area

A recent search of my email returned this old 2017 coupon from Toy R US, buried in the depths of my inbox. It brought back a lot of memories

On a separate topic, I need to clean out my inbox!

So glad I picked this up. Cool tracks with a great retro esthetic

I love the detail they put into making this #StrangerThings record retro AF! Great selection of songs that take me back to that era. Fun album!

So NOW the #Analogue3D is available in fantastic colors. Where was this way back when I ordered a vanilla version?
Pretty slick looking in color :)
