I’m minutes away from leaving for Truman Lake for the weekend. We’ll be cruisin’ on a 2006 Yamaha SX230 High Output 320HP 23ft boat.
Life has been normal, and I’m bored with it (the normalness). But I’m told patience is key. Well we’ll just see about that now won’t we.
I’ve made a huge switch in how I handle my music library at home. I’m using WMP 11. Where as before I organized the folders myself and did all the sorting and file naming. But now I’m “trying” out letting WMP do most of the work for me. Watch out because this is only the Beta release and it’s already an iTunes killer.
I’ve been watching my collection of Futurama Episodes lately…man, good good stuff.
NPH is hoping on the Podcasting bandwagon. That’s neat.
Oh I received news that broke my heart last week. First some history: Honda produced the first Integra in 1985. And in 1986 it came to America under the Acura badge. Well in 2000 they renamed the Acura Integra to the Acura RSX. And now for the heart breaking: They announced they are ending production on the RSX!! That really sucks because I’d been planning to get one in 2009. I cried myself to sleep that night.
With Blink 182 in indefinite hiatus everyone’s doing side projects. Tom DeLonge created a band, Angels and Airwaves. Their CD came out this week and I’m very impressed.
Crap!! Amy just got home, we’re leaving now. Have a good Memorial Weekend all.
This was a much needed birthday present from my Dad. It’s a CD cabinet…and it’s awesome!! I finally have my CD’s in alphabetical order. He (my dad) estimates it will hold around 650-700. And as you can see I’m almost halfway there. The CD’s on the lower shelf are those I don’t have cases for. I outgrew the first CD cabinet he made for me. There are a couple things that I want to do still. One is create a spreadsheet of all the CD’s (I’m a nerd) and then second rip most, if not all, of them to MP3.
We have the A/C on and I’m still sweating. Not cool.
I’ve been playing this lately. It’s my new ‘Chicken and Eggs’. It’s really simple, only involves one button. The idea is kind of like Tarzan/Spiderman swinging from place to place. Click and hold the left mouse button to throw the rope, release the button to let go of the rope. See how far you can travel. I haven’t noticed a difference between the levels yet. Let me know if you notice a difference. Post your high scores.
Current High Score: 1976m
Well we made it. It took us like 10.5 hours to get there and only 9 to get back. On the way there it rained most of the time, then snow, then once we got to Colorado Springs, it was crazy dense fog. Needless to say we got lost for about an hour. Oh yeah and we had to wake up our weekend host at 3am just to get directions…yeah that was fun.
Once we got up there and learned some of the main streets Amy and I did pretty well navigating. Both of us are severely directionally challenged. So for us we did good. And I was forced to learn how to use a map, seeing as how I somehow broke our GPS unit and had to leave it at home. Yeah, that sucks.
You remember how I told you we were super excited to go up to Pikes Peak. Well it turns out the road to drive up there was closed and to take the train was $30 a person. Forget that!! So we filled our time with: Seven Falls, Helen Hunt Falls, Garden of the Gods, Manitou Springs, Woodland Park, Chick-fil-A, Cadoba (sp?), and pretty pictures. The picture above is taken from Garden of the Gods. After 2,500 miles in the ol’Civic we were ready to be home. We had fun. See you later CO.
