Going home tonight when I finish my shift...that's right, at 3:30am I am heading out for the hour-ish drive home.  It is gorgeous out and I think I am just going to roll the windows down, throw on some Portishead and just chill on the trip home.  You know, enjoy the calm and just having nobody out on the road to be stupid.

Had a really good ( Read more... )

Hmm...here is a good update for all of you who actually still read this trivial crap.  Well, so good might be a bit of a stretch, but I think you get the point.

Friday was nice as both my girl and I had the night off so we were able to actually spend it together.  We went shopping, bought some nice Vans and we saw "Sin CityThe movie was done ( Read more... )

It has been a busy week with all of our freakin' group projects going on.  Had to drive down to Indianapolis Airport and talk with thier head IT/DR guy.  It was really interesting, but the guy used so many tech words that it was really easy to get lost.  He really knew what he was talking about and made me curious if they really need us to do this ( Read more... )

Had a good weekend kiddos.  My girl and I hung out with a couple we know from work and thier friends.  We went to TGI Fridays and I remember now why you NEVER order alchohol from restaurants.  The bill came to like $53...CRIPES!  Since we were feeling good, we stopped at a liquor store and grabbed a bottle of wine and 4 other small bottles.  So on ( Read more... )

Here is a meme for you all.

Sorry about the lack of updates (yeah, like you care), but I got Gran Turismo 4 a little while ago and it is sucking up TOO much of my time.  It is a freakin' WICKED game and I would suggest it to anyone who is a car fan.  It has its flaws but nothing too big that makes the game unplayable.  The biggest one (lack of 2P garage battle) was fixed in ( Read more... )

For those of you who love Wikipedia as much as I do, they are having a fundraiser to keep the site alive.  Give freely!

...and stay tuned for an eventual rant/update about the demonization of street racing and how it is all bull.

First some depressing news, Hunter S. Thompson was found dead tonight from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.  The man who brought us such fantastic books like "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas," "The Rum Diary," and also "Hey Rube," is gone.  It is such a shame to see the genius die and even more of a shame when it is from suicide.

I love that word.

This was a good weekend.  I got to actually have a Friday off for once and was able to spend it with my sexy girl.  Went over to Drew's house that night and Eric, him, and I played some Final Fantasy: Chrystal Chronicles.  The game is pretty cool, but it seems to drag and feel tedious.  Not sure how much more we will play of it.  Went to the arcade ( Read more... )
