Well, I've spent a lot of time with Harry and Liz so far this year. We went to a party on New Year's Eve, then I spent the night/early morning at the house they were watching for some relatives (the power was out at my apartment when we got back from the party). New Year's Day, we ran some errands and played some games on PS2 (I watched Liz play "Spiro" and helped her make some progress with "Kingdom Hearts"). That afternoon, we went to see Night at the Museum. That evening, they dropped me off at my apartment.
I also got together with Harry and Liz today. We ate dinner at a fast food place and visited Wal-Mart. I offered to buy their PS2 game "Marvel: Ultimate Alliance" since they were looking to buy the XBox 360 version of the game for their new system. Hopefully, I'll get it from them next weekend. After Wal-Mart, we went to see Happily N'Ever After. I thought the evil stepmother (voiced by Sigorney Weaver) was hot, and I liked the dishwasher character (voiced by Freddy Prince, Jr.) who loved a girl (Ella AKA Cinderella) who only saw him as a friend and was ga-ga over the shallow, not-terribly-bright prince the dishwasher worked for.
As for my "Kingdom Hearts II" game, I have made progress. I visited the Olympus Coliseum world after blasting my way through the Phantom Storm Gummi mission. I was bummed that the Drive Form option was disabled while I was in the Underworld, but I still held my own against the Heartless in the caves. I teamed up with Auron, who helped me escape Hades, fight through the Heartless, and put Cerberus down long enough to get out the main gate. I met up with Hercules and did some training with Phil. After that, I went back into the Underworld to find the Olympus Stone (it was snatched by a member of Organization XIII--Demyx) and rescue Megara (spelling?). Demyx kept saying "Roxas," then I had to take out 100 or so ghostly forms he unleashed against me. I used the Reaction command a lot, which was some "Wild Dance" thing that let me take out several forms at a time. I got the Stone, then looked for Meg. I found her with Hades, Pete, and some bat-like Heartless. I was able to free her, and Hercules came along. We fought with Pete, then left after Hades said something about the Hydra in the Coliseum. We got up there and fought with the Hydra. It was a two-part battle: the first part, I would climb on the Hydra's back and smash jars tossed by Phil on the monster. This would stun the Hydra's two heads (protruding from holes in the ground) so I could run over and attack them. The second part had the Hydra with at least seven heads. It would hit me with fire and tear up the ground. I kept hitching rides on Pegasus and swinging my Keyblade at the heads as I flew by them. I also discovered Meg would throw health and magic boosting orbs my way if I went over to her. After a long battle, the Hydra was defeated. We got a message from Queen Minnie and headed over to Disney Castle. I fought through some Heartless and joined Minnie. Donald and Goofy split up from us, leaving Minnie and I to fight to the audiance chamber. There was a hidden room beneath it leading to the Cornerstone Chamber. There were thorns around the cornerstone, and we learned Malificent (spelling?) was trying to take over the castle. Goofy, Donald, and I went to see Merlin back at Hollow Bastion. He brought us back to the Chamber and made a door appear. We (Donald, Goofy, and I) went through the door to the Timeless River, a black-and-white world resembling an old Disney cartoon.
