So after 8, yes 8, emissions testings, our truck finally passed! The thing that got it to actually work was running Seafoam through it twice. This is such a huge weight off our shoulders, we were starting to think that it was gonna be a much bigger problem. Now we can finally get it registered, and only 1 whole month after we bought it :)

So I have 3 40gb hard drives in my computer. It's kind of a nightmare when I am storing data. I think I should probably just set up a RAID 0. I don't have anywhere to back up my shit first, need to find that.

This is how exciting my life is down here. Heather and I need friends.

So it was brought to my attention that Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles is in a different time line than Terminator 3, so any plot holes (like the ones present in the very first episode) can be completely thrown out the window. It's a total cop out, but I've decided to give the show a 2nd chance. I'm only 2 episodes in, but it seems alright ( Read more... )

I finished watching The Office UK yesterday, and I'm now a confused Office fan. I started on the US version, and I know it really well, but the 2nd season of the UK version is just so god damned funny. I almost can't compare the 2 shows as the same thing because of how different they end up being. For instance, trying to compare Dwight and Gareth ( Read more... )

Chrono Trigger is just way too awesome. Seriously.

But I just did my first oil change all by myself and I'm pretty excited about it. The part that I'm really proud of though deals with my alternator. To get to the oil filter you have to take the alt off. I've always considered that a 2 person job, but I managed to do it completely on my own! It was kinda tricky, but I did it all. I'm way happy ( Read more... )

Alright everybody, you might want to grab a box of tissues, because this will get pretty emotional. A few weeks ago my parents decided that they are moving to Utah. They are kinda getting pushed out of their house, so they're using this as an opportunity to finally move back down there with the rest of my family. This got Heather, Chris, and myself ( Read more... )

I won 50 bucks from a scratch ticket yesterday, so I went out and got some gifts for Heather and I. I wasn't sure what she would like in the dvd/cd area, so I got her Justin Timberlake's live DVD. We're probably gonna take it back so she can get something she really wants, but I expected that, so it's fine. For myself, I purchased my first Beatles ( Read more... )

So I woke up a little early this morning since Heather was going to work early. I go into the living room, turn on my TV, flip through channels, and what did I find? Oh, just Radiohead performing In Rainbows on the HD music channel. It's like a private "In the Basement" performance, so it's not at an event or anything. What I do know for sure ( Read more... )
