The Ownage

Today I was  approached by a DirectTV salesman at Frys Electronics. Usually I wave these guys right off, but he wasn’t wearing the typical vendor polo, nor any other identifying nametag. The conversation went something like this: Him: “Hey there, have you heard about our special today?” Me: “Hi. No”. Him: “Well we have a [...]

Well I just got my replacement card for my main checking account. And guess what, they screwed up yet again! I had a Platinum Check Card that had my picture on it, and they replaced it with one of the generic red debit cards. Seriously…can they do anything right?

Just walking around used to be such a chore, but today, wow…I don’t know if it’s because I slept all day, or my diet, or losing weight, but I just feel so strong and light on my feet, which should be impossible since Im still near 400 pounds, lol. NEED MOAR EXERCISE! I’m going out [...]

So my CPAP mask broke again. Same exact failure as the last mask. The plastic fastener that the clip goes into just can only take so many uses before it breaks.  So I ordered a different nasal mask, that has a different kind of fastener to see if it would last longer. That mask and [...]

Christines MacBook Pro died the other day. After some diagnosis I determined the hard drive was just physically damaged. I booted a Ubuntu live CD and copied off all of the files that I could, and then the fun began. A MacBook Pro is not constructed like your typical laptop that has an easy access [...]

2009 will be upon us soon. Time to start thinking of those pesky new years resolutions. Currently my resolution is 1280×1024…sorry I couldn’t resist! Seriously my main resolution is to lose weight. I got an email from the past, a year go, via futureme.org, and even in that email I was chastizing myself for being [...]

I’ve created a new post category called “thankful”. When I don’t have anything interesting to blog about (which is sadly most of the time), I plan on making a post about one thing that I am thankful for. I figure this is better than complaining about things, which feels good but we have all seen [...]

Last night we had a combo birthday party for me and Jenny. It was really cool as everyone was there and it was great to see them all. Terry did a great job decorating and helping everyone get their digs in at me for my age Jeramiah made an awesome salad and I learned about [...]

My birthday was actually 2 days ago. I didn’t do anything “special” (people at work kept asking me if I was going to “do something special”…?). They were also surprised that I came to work on my bday. Since when is a bday a work holiday? I did get one bday card from Josh & [...]

Went and saw Iron Man tonight with Christines mom, Jake, and Erin. Tara didn’t get to go because she was being punished for a spat that she had with Jake in the car – she threw his cellphone at him and it hit the window and broke Anyhow the movie was pretty darn good, and [...]
