• I finally beat Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando. I had put it down several months ago when I got stuck on one of the Giant-Clank missions, the one where you have to destroy the flying saucer that's vulnerable only when it lands to spew nasty little killbots at you. But last night I wanted to play a video game, and decided that I had stored enough of whatever mysterious force it is that lets me do better at a game after I've put it down for a long time, so I sat down and burned through this one.
• Unlocked R.O.B. in Mario Kart DS. I am unfortunately one slot away from having gold in every cup at every difficulty level; after three tries I can't get better than silver in Special Cup at 150cc Mirror. Stupid Rainbow Road.
