If only I could play against Mario, the greatest Tennis Player Ever, then my life would be complete...

So I decided to watch some Paradise Kiss and I get to the end of the first episode and I see this. What the fuck, mann? Seriously.
So apparently the reason I wasn't getting any hours was because, when filling out the "when I can work" form, I actually followed the directions on the form instead of disregarding them. Exciting. Also, apparently the hired some random new person within a day of promoting Tavares, so that makes me feel good that they didn't even consider me for the job, especially when Tavares and Kathy were all talking about how I'm going to have to step up and take charge since he'll have no clue what he's doing... exciting... yup.
So the problem with me and the Mario sports games are that I'm too good at them. I got Mario Tennis: Power Tour (As you might have noticed from the updated Stats and Marquee. Yay! I actually updated them! I also added some more comics to the links.), and I've already almost beat it. The addition of power shots actually makes the game easier over the GBC one, at least for me, because the enemies use offensive power shots, which gives me more openings to smash through for the win. Remember, though, if you ever want to beat me, just do a lob shot. I dislike having to play the same mini games over and over to grind up my power shot levels so that they don't suck, but eh, so it goes. I want to use PS ESP for my recovery shot, but it looks like it's going to take waaaaay too much work to grind up to the point where I can recover the ball from anywhere, so I'll probably stick with PS Speed... and PS Muscle action for my attack shot, though I never use the attacking power shots... I need to hook the game up to the Gamecube thing and see how my character works in the three dimentions. I'm personally enjoying the fact that I'm this short little pigtailed stick girl and I've used my stats to make her a pure power player, because that's how I play (I use Bowser normally, for chrissake). I do wish she was taller, though. It'll probably affect her game in the Gamecube version. That's one of the reasons I like playing Bowser, I can snag balls from way the fuck over my head and smash them. Eh, whatever.
I'm really playing too much Sudoku on Brain Age. I wonder if that's a bad thing.
