Yesterday was one of the better thanksgiving celebrations in a long time.
We went down to my family’s celebration, with just tons of people. It was really neat, because we could observe four generations. My grandparents, their children and spouses, their children and spouses, and now a new generation is starting to appear. [...]
Boy, considering the quantity of thoughts I’ve had lately, I just haven’t posted for anything.
Over the past few days I’ve been listening to Christmas music, and I’m in a Christmas mood big time. A friend also sent out a letter regarding remembering the purpose of Thanksgiving and Christmas, which really helped to reframe things.
Sure, [...]
Tonight we’re staying the night at my in-laws house.
Now, I know a lot of people have things or jokes about their in-laws, and how awful they are. I actually really like my in-laws. My father-in-law is an electrician who is very interesting to talk to, my mother-in-law is a very kind and caring [...]
So, this definitely rocks. I had imagined that they’d have used the GBA link instead of a whole extra peripheral, but as Tycho said over on Penny Arcade, Nintendo is peripheral crazy.
Game Boy Player for GameCube!
So, like, yeah – it’s 12:40 or so, and I am so tired and burned out. I have a freakin’ huge midterm tomorrow (she calls it a midterm, it’s like a pre-final final exam) in my Computer Architecture (SPARC assembly) course. I’m busting my butt on a project for an Intro to Scientific [...]
November 20, 2002Uncategorized1 commentSo, I managed to break a lot on my laptop today. I had to reinstall WinAmp (3, no less) like twice; I guess a skin download hosed it. I’m reinstalling Cygwin right now, because for some reason I can’t get a stable X-session connected to my linux box on my network, which is [...]
November 20, 2002UncategorizedNo commentsThe test wasn’t quite so hard as I’d have imagined. I will admit that there was one or two questions where I wasn’t feeling super sure of my answer, but I’m also feeling pretty good overall, like B to B+ range on the test. That’s always a nice feeling. I got done [...]
November 20, 2002UncategorizedNo commentsI have a rather large test in about a half hour, and I’m getting somewhat afraid. I’ve studied incredibly hard for this test, written a review sheet I’m allowed to take with me into the exam, and have done about all I can possibly think of to prepare, but I still feel fear inside.
Perhaps [...]
So, on Saturday my wife and I went with my mom to hang out at the mall for her birthday. My mom never really gets to get out and just casually look around stores, but she loves to do it. Since it was her birthday, we asked her what she wanted to do, [...]
November 19, 2002Uncategorized1 commentYeah, so I have some friends who use LiveJournal (LJ), who are all bugged that I don’t. Well, maybe bugged isn’t the right term. They wish I’d use LJ so that they could go ahead and use the Friends link for themselves to read entries, rather than just click on a simple link to my [...]
November 19, 2002UncategorizedNo commentsOkay, this is just in parody of my own post on the front page. That’s sad, but hey.
I hooked my friend Adam with two kittens that my mom was trying to get rid of, and apparently he’s pretty happy with them and they’ve taken well to their new home. On his LJ, he [...]
So I’ve been sick for about a week now. I’ve had a very nagging cold. Today marks the one-week since the worst day. Last Thursday was absolutely horrid, and although I still hurt a little when I sneeze, and I’m coughing a lung up, I’m definitely a lot better today than a [...]
November 14, 2002UncategorizedNo commentsSo, today was quite a long day in some respects.
I forgot that today is my wife’s goofy schedule day, so I didn’t get up till 8am, which is when I meant to be at work. Oops. I got ready and went down to UNM’s hospital, as my stepdad was receiving a PET scan. [...]
So, I’ve upgraded the code for Movable Type to version 2.51, and in doing so, found a new template that I like – it’s very clean, very basic. =) I’m going to try and post more now, or, at least, post on a more regular basis.
