Our internet was down since Wednesday(?) and life was relatively normal for me except for a few added trips with purpose when we went out to eat...making sure to hone in on restaurants with wi-fi :) In times like those I wish I had a slim, normal laptop/notebook in a slick, fashionable messenger bag. Instead, it looks like I'm carrying a small air ( Read more... )

So we got a letter from Charter yesterday. It said they know what I'm downloading and it's not cool. Some time ago, I tried (in vain) to torrent Tropic Thunder--it stopped at the 75 percent marker due to some weird error. Well I wonder if that had anything to do with the fact that it was being tracked by a 3rd party company representing Columbia ( Read more... )

My brother Eric says that he should be coming back to the states in the spring time of next year. I was already looking forward to that time of year because of Resident Evil 5 but no game or media release can top having my brother out of that war. So now every front page news of the newest Baghdad suicide bombing grips my heart with cold fear and ( Read more... )

This is about getting together for Miss' birthday on Saturday the 22nd this month. The bare bones plan is to eat at Blue Sea Sushi and play Rawk Band back at the house. We may or may not be trying to add on seeing the Pixar movie "Bolt" that day too. It haz a hamster in it ( Read more... )

The answer is "yes", at least for 45 minutes of last night. I guess snacking on 3 Musketeers and then sushi for lunch had a weird imbalance that brought about that old nauseous feeling topped off with a burning 'mini' fever. But I walked it off ( Read more... )

We did a lot of things today--to be presented here in bullet form ( Read more... )

Well I tried to post that photo meme, but since I'm not a subscriber, and I don't have photobucket, and since Image-shack.com is mysteriously down, I have no way of posting my completely natural, spur-of-the-moment photo ( Read more... )

Something I don't think I do often enough is to unload my mind after a convention. It's not enough to discuss it on the way back (although that is definitely critical), but I need to itemize and compartmentalize my thoughts, feelings, and reactions to the things that take place over the 3 day excursion ( Read more... )

Had a great time with everyone over at $c0tT's house Sunday night for an impromptu get together. What was the occasion? Practically nothing. There was no reason, there was no filming, and no particular media related 'event.' But there was pizza, anime Batman, a lot of Blockus (which, by the way, is way more fun with that 4th person) and a little ( Read more... )

So what's been happening with me? It's been pretty much the same line of things that need to be done versus the things that we *want* to do. As in, we really don't want to be packing up the apartment right now but we really have to! I think if we bring in some music and maybe even some snackies, it'll make the process go much faster inside of ( Read more... )
