A Whole Lotta Nada
So it's been a while since I've actually sat down and just blogged about non-news topics.
So what can I say? There hasn't been too much going on.
Superbowl Sunday didn't interest me that much - obviously I'm not a football fan. I spent more time watching the Super Tuesday Primary results than on Sunday watching football. (My guy did really well, and I'm pysched and hopeful to see him win the nomination.)
With my wifey in between jobs right now, we didn't have a laptop anymore. We're both lazy and like to surf the interwebs while watching television. We were tempted to buy a laptop, but I ended up getting a laptop from work instead. The laptop is a decent size and it has like 4 gigs of RAM! (I create and manipulate a lot of large graphics on a daily basis.) Hopefully this doesn't mean that I bring more work home.
While I got a laptop two weeks ago, we were out at Best Buys this past weekend and found a smokin' deal on a Compaq laptop. We we bought it! So now we have a new laptop at home! Yay! At this point I'm not really impressed with Windows Vista, and I'm still trying to figure out how to use some of the Office 2007 features.
I had to goto traffic school last Saturday. I got caught by a photo radar camera - 11 over the speed limit. I swear, it's a scam. Just another way to generate revenues without using police resources. I got it in the mail a few weeks later. Some swear that you can ignore them, but sooner or later they'll find you. I figured it would just be easier to to take the stupid class and get it over with. It end up being 5 and a half hours of detention. We watched a video, the instructor gave his whole schpeel, and then there was a Q&A... a basic waste of a half of a Saturday. Fun - fun.
Speaking of fun... my tooth/jaw/body aching has finally gone away. After a week of pain and feeling like crap I finally feel 100% better. Even my jaw/teeth don't hurt a single bit. I can even chew with that tooth! Yay... root canal #2 worked wonders! And I guess I suffered from a short, minor bug/flu for a few days. Thank god all that went away!
And finally...
Happy (Chinese) New Year! (Chuc Mung Nam Moi)
(Ok, I cheated, my wifey just gave me the Vietnamese the translation)
