I did! The best part, honestly, was that my three-year-old son has a concept of Christmas and presents now and was psyched out of his little mind about it all 

Sounds like he doesn't expect to finish it (it is a HUGE project, after) but it will sure be good while it lasts.

I don't know what edition you have but mine is the 25th Anniversary Deluxe Edition. There is as much bonus material at the back of the book as there is story lol.

It wouldn't be BaD without pandas!

It seems odd to me that such a low-paying job was able to heap so much technology on you 

The original Game Boy with Kirby's Dream Land. That Game Boy is still at my parents' house somewhere, as far as I know, though something happened to Dream Land and I've since re-bought it lol

Journey is so good! It's definitely an "experience over gameplay" sort of game but man, what an experience 

I reference that site a lot for game lengths but trying to contribute is just too much for me. Plus, since I have little kids, I often get pulled away while playing something and it gets left on. My times would all be skewed lol.

I must have missed something. Thor is an English-Canadian transplant with a digital hammer?

Good for you! I know things have been very tight for you for a while, so this sounds much overdue. And a 22k increase? Awesome! I just hope this new job doesn't suck up all your free time.
