Bumbershoot Bungle

I… I think I lost my umbrella. I don’t see it anywhere. I tried going to the Union and asking around, but no one has seen anything.

This is distressing. We had such great times together, and now it’s just gone — after such a short while. I thought it would be with me for a long time to come.

I… well, maybe it’ll turn up. I have to work. But it’s hard not to worry…

I’ve got two legs, from my hips the ground…

Once again the first task I undertook when I stepped in the door just now was — rather than to remove my shoes — to begin to take off my pants.

I unwrapped my copy of Segagaga. And I just stared at it for a while. It’s my first game to have one of those “extra-thick” Japanese cases, to accomodate for the somewhat large manual. The manual is, of course, gorgeous. The case is white (as with my copy of Vampire Chronicle for Matching Service). It’s also my first game with a real Hitmaker logo on it. But there’s really not much to look at, if my Dreamcast doesn’t want to work. It’s too subtle.

Also to mention: my Altered Beast and Ghouls ‘N Ghosts cases (I’d forgotten how beautiful these are — these were my first two Genesis games) are in perfect condition, and the manuals are still inside. The Altered Beast case even still smells like a new Genesis. Even that is pristine. But no games. I thought I had my name on the cartridges as well, but I suppose it’s probable and likely that they were sold or given away or something.
