Today was a good day, I really had no desire to go to work today but I did, and I got to play with my Stitch bubble blower, however I brought it home because I really don’t think he’ll last there. I am convinced someone would nick it.

The drive home was rough because I was really sleepy for some reason thank goodness for Jimmy Buffett. However, this was not as bad as the news I received when I got home… THE CABLE WAS OUT! GASP! No TV, no Internet, no Phone. Ugh. Shawn reported it had been out for a little while and they claimed it was temporary, and the reason for the outage was because they were upgrading our neighborhood so we could FINALLY get Digital Cable and HDTV.

Seriously, it was not so bad, we had dinner and played the Sims 2 a little, and Shawn got me these way cool bags that flatten out your clothes by sucking the air out (for when I travel). We had dinner and watched some Full Metal Alchemist on DVD and after dinner we went up to the loft and watched the entire first DVD of Gunslinger Girl. It was fantastic. Amazing. I cannot wait for the second DVD to come out now! The girls are great, the story is good and the animation is compelling.

After Gunslinger Girl, we realized the cable came back on and I got to order a few accessories for my new PowerBook, which after watching Gunslinger Girl, I promptly decided on a name for it. Henrietta. I also got to talk with evilBuddha (finally!) who I haven’t got to chat with much over the past week with my travel schedule. He was good enough to help me figure out some issues I was having with the trackpad on my new PowerBook. Damn that “Ignore accidental trackpad input”. It was making the trackpad respond erratically to my input. At his suggestion, I unchecked it and suddenly, it started working so well! Thanks evilBuddha!

Nite.
