I’m mad crazy busy right now. Cool stuf to tell y’all about though. Some good memories. Nifty pics, etc.
I’m so the man. Just reminding you.

Mad crazy busy week.
But, I have to say that I’m slowly weaning myself of of MS products.
I’m using Firebird for e-mail and Thunderbird for browsing now.
Check ‘em out
Both are excellent.

But, now I’m hooked on MS Money. It automatically grabs data from my CC, bank, and Ameritrade accounts. Pretty sweet.

Now all I need is a budget, except I have no steady income. Well, sorta, from Google ads. Not very predictable though.

I’ve now moved pictures into Gallery. Check them out:

The linux box is dead for now so there’s no pictures on it
Gotta get about $150 to build another one.

I’m watching Princess Bride. I don’t know why. I should go to bed. I got up at 5:30 this morning to work out w/ some guys. It was pretty brutal. Did I mention that Princess Bride is a great movie?

“It’s probably a local fisherman … out for a pleasure cruise … in eel infested waters.”

Anyways, so I went to the symphony tonight. Emanual Ax was playing (world famous pianist). I couldn’t find anyone to go with me so I went alone. So I get there and my seat is between two old people. Regular folks. The old woman says to me, “where’d you come from? I haven’t seen you before.” She then proceedes to tell me about her seats and I think she said she had to move back one row because her husband died. HOWEVER, I’m not entirely sure she said that. I didn’t want to ask her to repeat it because, well, that’s not exactly what you want folks to repeat. So, I felt stupid, because if her husband DID die then I should have said, “I’m sorry.” But, I didn’t really know. Not sure what I did.

Anyways, so I get halfway through the concert, in the middle of Ax’s playing – a Mozart concerto – and, I start to fall asleep. I couldn’t belive it! I felt so incredibly stupid! Like I said, I’ve been up since 5:30 and I was there, nodding off, between two old people, in the middle of a concert by one of the world’s best pianists. I think at one point I actually did fall asleep. To make matters worse, it was kinda hot up in the balcony.

Oh … Inigo and Westley just had their sword fight. Good times.

Ok, so we get to intermission and I know that I have to do something drastic. I quickly walk out and head towards McDonalds to find caffine. I buy some homeless guy a hamburger, suck down some Dr. Pepper and head back to Maymandi.

Oh man … such a great movie.

So, the moral of the story is that when I get old and crusty I’m gonna get me a seat at Maymandi and talk to the random college kids that come and sit beside me. Like the old dude beside me who was in Electrical Engineering before transistors. “Everything I learned went out the door in one year.”

Westley is the man. Such confidence. Such skill. I’m not sure if women like that, but I definitely think he’s pretty cool. Look at the fearlessness he exhibits when Buttercup falls into the quicksand. He’s the man. And, that Buttercup … she’s quite a looker.

“But Westley, what about the “R.O.U.S”s”
“Rodents Of Unusual Size? I don’t belive they exist.”

Well, we lost. But, I jumped up and down and screamed for 2 hrs. My calves hurt today. Very fun. The look on McCant’s face when we all started chanting “STD! STD! STD!” …. classic.

So I think we need to share the love and go visit Austin’s blog and James’ blog. Yes, I think we definitely need to do that.

In other news, apparently I’m very good at leading well in dancing. Much ladies have told me this. Heart grows happy. Social dance rocks. Almost perfect score doing the Foxtrot. Foxtrot is better than Cha Cha. Much more romantic … assuming you’re dancing w/ someone you want to be romantic with, which hasn’t happpened yet.
