Snowy Monday

Had a whirlwind of a sick weekend. Took 2 days off from work and spent the time watching movies, playing Warcraft and just taking it easy with Sarah. she started a new blog today, here it is: http://sarahtypeshere.blogspot.com/.

Recently our no-meat-ness caught up with us and we both craved a burger, luckily the sunlight cafe (vegetarian and sugar free cafe) is up the street so we got our nutburgers and felt complete again.

The weather has turned white, the commute this morning was about 50 minutes with all the slow traffic and ice on the road. But I made it to work safe and just hoping I can get back home in the same state.

Sonic news is grim on the court, optomistic in the court of law. We lost the 14th consecutive game last night and things are looking really down for this deffensevily weak squad. The coaches is getting really awful and Durant is just taking too many shots and missing most of them. But theres hope for keeping the team here as the judge will be ruling on whether or not the lease will bind them here till 2010.

My extra home-time on the weekend with Sarah and her new iMac (twins with my current machine) resulted in getting 2 dungeon drops for Poder, who is officially now ready to enter the 10-man raiding scene.... if only we could organize 10 people we know! Tonight we'll be running the Arcatraz dungeon with a guildy we got acquainted with yesterday.

Time to make up for all that sick leave so back to the excel.

Bring in the 8

2008 is here and I've been really bad about keeping th blog up so here's a quick list for of whats gone on and WILL be going on in the near future:
-took vacation time off work and had a great break during th Xmas and New Years holidays
-work is going well, testing is fun and although losing its lustre, I still enjoy the procedures and those "everything went perfect and we made great time" kinda days
-decided that I'm holding back on meat-eating, basically if we are in a world where we can manufacture and pick sustainable and renewable food then why do we still eat animals?!!? So no cow or chicken for THE YEAR!!! (fish is ok and the byproducts of animals like milk and eggs if fine too, lol)
-resolution this year is to be healthier, lose some weight, and just being more adult about stuff
-exam of being more adult: getting another computer for Sarah so we can both (WoW together all day) err study!
-I've got a test for the fundamentals of engineering coming up on the 12th of April.
-working on saving $$ and getting a better hold on how to handle finances for future blah blah blah
-this weekend we'll be doing an IKEA trip to get a chair/bed which is the younger cousin of a sofabed
-the study is getting a bit of an overhaul with the dual computers and new chairbed on the horizon, so hopefully that stays clean for a bit
-Durant is not getting much help out there for the supes, Rids can't stay in because of multiple injuries and Wilcox has been out for a while.... in short my solution: Trade watson/wilkins and petro for jason williams and some nachos.
-best Xmas gift i've gotten in a long while: green Durant jersey, frickin LOVE IT!!! (and Sarah for givin it to me)
-married life is all and good, we've had some stellar days this past week with walks and dinners together and talks and wrestling, so thats always something to look forward to!
-OH I HAVE A NEW LITTLE NIECE!!!! She's really cute and little and squirmy, I can't wait to babysit her and teach her stuff and play games with her (whether its IRL or not, lol) just an awesome little thing
-my dad had surgery in el sal during his trip and i'm really relieved and stoked to see him in good health now, i look forward to taking more times to have one-on-one time with him like we did for the trip to canadia
-poder has been golding it up since hitting 70 AGES ago, and now its getting to be close to the time where i really buckle down, finish off the $$ needed for my epic flying mount and explore the last 2 zones
-there is a potential raid group in WoW building now that the group knows sarah and I are splitting accounts shortly
-seattle will be getting an MLS team in a couple years, so if nothing else I will still have a team to follow rabidly

well that is a basic overview that should help get things up to date, now its Yabadabadoooo time at work (someone just pulled the tail of parrot and I gotta clock out on my stone tablet). Have a good one all and I'll try to get this blog goin more regularly I swear!
