Moving


So I got back from the party less than an hour ago – had a really, really great time!

Setup an XBox with a projector pointed at the wall, though I declined to play on that setup.

I had my big old desktop gaming rig setup, playing Halo versus one of the other guys who brought his rig – it was a ton of fun.

Played for a good while and then backed off and let one of my friends play Half-Life 2 on the machine. Then I got back on it and borrowed another friend's copies of Metal Gear Solid 2 and Spiderman 2 – can't wait to play those two. :)

Had lots of pizza, lots of soda, lots of gaming fun, really good time!

So that's my last contact with the college until the summer semester starts on the 23rd of this month. :)

Other stuff:

- Mom and dad are working on the buying/selling paperwork for this house and the one we're looking at.

- I'm going to setup/secure a wireless network on Friday, more on that after the fact. :)

So, I had typed out this whole long post about my day thus far and hit "Publish" and WordPress was having some downtime and rejected my post, but didn't save any changes of course.

There's my daily reminder of why I usually hate web-based apps I guess. (Except GMail of course, GMail rocks.)

So now, WordPressDash to the rescue.
It's hardly perfect, but it does a pretty good job, especially for a flippin' dashboard widget!

Anyways, what was I saying about my day, before bad things happened…

I got to sleep in this morning – didn't get out of bed until 9. :)

Got up, messed around on the internet for a while, played some Halo versus my brother. Ate some awesome coffee cake my sister was nice enough to make. :) Then started cleaning, cleaned up my room, moved my computer and cleaned up my desk. Got some reminders on why I don't like to clean, two primary reasons:

  1. I'm lazy
  2. I have some evil dust allergies, my eyes are still killing me

Yepp. Argh. Anyways. 

So now I'm just chilling, listening to music, etc.

Mostly I'm just killing time until this evening. :) Last night I wrote myself a little list of things for the party tonight, it went something like this:

  • Rig (My big machine)
  • Powerbook
  • Speakers
  • Ethernet cables
  • !! STOP AND GET SOME CAFFEINE !!

 Yepp, tonight should be fun. :) I'll update on that when I get back tonight.

As far as a possible move for my family, my mom is leaving now to get the paperwork to put our house on the market. She and dad will probably fill that out tonight and then things will really get interesting.

I'll try keep this place updated. :)  

So, we sit down at dinner tonight and mom announces "Well, it looks like we're gonna put our house on the market – for real this time."

For those of you who don't know me or don't know this, we've been going back and forth with the idea of moving for quite a while. We're staying in this city (Dad's job, our schooling, etc.) but we've had some serious issues with our current location (Mostly issues with neighbors.) and it looks like this time it might be for real.

Mom and dad went out and looked at a house this evening and thought it was great – location, size, condition, etc.

I'll keep you all updated on this. :)
