I feel bad that I haven’t been posting as much as I would like due to school picking up again. However, I don’t feel really bad since I haven’t had much to write about lately. Anyway, yesterday afternoon, I found something to center a composition around. I was in Fry’s to ask about a recording device for some kind of security camera setup for my house at the co-op and after I got pointed in the right direction and took some notes, I wandered over the games section to see if they had any deals. There weren’t many but there WAS something that surprised me.

Copies of Katamari Damacy at Fry's
Plentiful shrinkwrapped copies of Katamari Damacy at its original price of $20! (The game is also “in stock” on frys.com at the same price.) By comparison, Gamestop only has used copies priced at $29.99, ten dollars more. I didn’t have a PS2 back when it was released in the summer of 2004 but now that I own one, I instantly grabbed one off the shelf while wondering why this store still had a fair number of new copies three years after its release.

Anime Section Sign Inside Fry's
I then tried to find the anime DVD section and found this banner on one side of the aisle. (The girl on the upper left is from DNA^2, an anime that arrived on my doorstep Saturday from RightStuf’s sparse Xmas sale - I intend to watch it over the next couple weeks.) As I expected, there weren’t any deals to be found but…

Many Haruhi LE Boxes at Fry's
I was similarly surprised by how many Haruhi vol. 1 LE boxes on the shelves. I unfortunately cut off a couple on the right when taking the picture so there were 16 there and probably some more in the storeroom.


Finally, something that I actually found while unlocking my car before I left home: the head of a Chopper figurine. I have no idea how that got onto the street near the driver’s side door since I don’t have many small figures and those I do own reside on my desk in my Davis apartment. Somehow, the “rocking hard” expression makes me want to string a chain through the hat and hang it around my rear-view mirror.
