BLEARG!!!!

Ohhhhh boy. Ok. I usually dont talk about what goes on in my personal life, but sinces its FFXI related, I'm gonna talk about it anyway.

Anyhoo. Today was black friday. The super duper evil shopping day where old grandmas get trampled on for good deals. Since the new FFXI expansion pack came out on Tuesday, I decided to go out and get it. I went to two Gamestops, one Gameplay, three Targets, one Walmart, and even one Toys R Us. None of them had it. They all either had the Xbox or PS2 veresion, but no PC. I then went to a Best Buy. A salesguy came up to me and asked if I needed any help. I asked if they had the game and he quickly rushed and got me a ps2 version. "Err...well I need the PC version," I told him. He then ran off again 10 minutes later told me that all Best Buys didn't have it and they would have them later this week. This is where I ripped some of my hair out. I had driven around for 4 hours and couldn't find the darn game. My little brother needed to go to a place called Frys. For those of you who never been to one, Frys is this huuuuge electronics store. "They gotta have it there!" I thought. So I drove me and my little brother an hour and a half all the way to this store. It was a freaken battlezone! People were running around grabbing w/e the storeclerks were restocking right off the shelfs. I got seperated from my brother as he ran into the crowd and I began to swim through some line trying to get to the video game section. Finally I was able to get to the section which looked liked a tornado came through. Again a clerk asked me again if I needed help to look for anything. Again I asked for the game and the guy again brought a console version of the game. When I asked if they had a PC version, the guy said they didn't have it and the PC version wasn't even out until tomorrow. "Eh?" was all I could say. I stood there frozen and the guy went to help someone else. "WHAT THE EF!" I could of sworn the game came out on Tuesday I thought. After hunting down my brother and going back home, I jumped on my family's mac to check the the game's availability. Sure enough, all the darn stores I had been to said they haven't even recieved it yet. So I wasted a whole day, and a lot of gas, looking for the darn game. I later went back to a game store and pre-ordered it. There is no game store near my college so now I gotta get it mailed up to me. What a pain and waste of my freaken time!
