That's the last straw!

Well, not really, but things are begining to test my patience. My wife left this morning to go to Mexico for a week. She is taking 30 high-school kids on a mission trip to Chihuahua Mexico to do some work at an oprphanage. This is the 3rd year she has gone on this trip and she really enjoys going, but it means that me and the boys are all on our own for 10 days; between soccer and work and school I'll be pretty busy. I was kind of looking forward to getting some extra game time in this week, but...wait for it... the XBOX decided to take a trip down the crapper. It won't read any disc I put in. I blew some Dust Off through it, same thing. I took it apart and cleaned the lens with e Q tip and....nothing, it won't even read a brand new disc. I think it's toast. I was planning on getting as 360 soon, and with the announcementof the Elite this is all the incentive I need. Now i just have to wait a month or so until I can get my hands on one.
