...and early by 3 days! It's in TA Yuan Hsiang, Taiwan now. Hopefully I'll have it by early next week. I can't wait!

Sorry to skip out on everyone Friday night. I didn't really feel like watching Wrath of Kahn that night. I went home and curled up on the couch and starting reading Dune again. I just watched the mini-series and some parts of it bothered me. They weren't what I remembered, but I may be confusing the movie with the book so I decided to read the ( Read more... )

It's Friday and I can't seem to get anything done at work today. Everyone has just been really unmotivated. On Wednesday management annouced the closing of a big site up in Massachusetts and we lost a lot of talented people. Management can only request that you do more with less so many times before things start to break down and I think it's ( Read more... )

I survived the weekend with my parents. Actually we had quite a bit of fun. They arrived Wednesday night and I picked them up at the airport and went in search of a hotel. We didn't expect a problem, but some type of game was going on and we checked 4-5 hotels before we found one with a room. We ate a Rockfish which was surprisingly good and ( Read more... )

So, yesterday was my birthday and I'm another year older. I had even forgotten about it until Scott asked Monday if I wanted to go out for Japanese. We did end up going out for lunch, but not to Todai as planned. They changed their birthday deal and it would of ended up being more expensive then either of us wanted to spend so we went to a new ( Read more... )

What a great way to start the week. This morning I slept through my alarm. I finally got up after 10, cursed when I saw the time and ran off to work. I made it just in time for my first meeting today and I've been stuck in them all day. I can count my comments on one hand and half the meetings had nothing to do with me. I am so bored ( Read more... )

I spent most of the weekend at Woody's. The plan was to watch some anime, but we only got through five of the seven episodes on the disc. We ended up playing a lot of Soul Caliber 2. Woody started playing Ivy and went from losing ten games in a row to owning us all, except the button masher, Mike. I thought I had gotten a little better, but the ( Read more... )

It raining cats and dogs at work. I was planning to go out for lunch today. Mr. Wok has a cold noodle dish called Hiyashichuuka I have been meaning to try. This weather would keep anyone inside though. I was also planning to pick up Chobits #6 which was released this week. Woody and I have been watching the series as its been released and it ( Read more... )

Phoenix crashed and I lost all the stuff I had typed, in dvorak even. I am making good progress. Now I can't type well in either qwerty or dvorak. That is a good sign that I am slowly adapting to the new format.

I finally put up some pictures from Animefest. Monkey Punch is the author of the Lupin III manga. At the final panel he drew some ( Read more... )

Animefest was a lot of fun again this year. Thursday I went to pick up my registration, but printer hadn't delievered anything yet. The woman running the desk was really nice though and made me a badge anyway ( Read more... )
