We're all so addicted to this game, it's unreal.

I added a bunch of movies to my dvd collection this weekend. I have over 30 now, and that should tide me over for a little while at least. I just wish that I had more friends here to watch movies with.

Camden's birthday and my half birthday are on the same day. That would be Jan. 30th. In my family, we have always rounded up... meaning that you're considered the next age as soon as your half birthday passes. So good god damn, I'm just about "24". And the little boy will no longer be a teenager. I've been wondering about what I'll be like in 10 years, and I can't seem to get a clear vision. Hopefully successful and not too wrinkly.

I miss chatting with Rebekah. I hope that she's doing well and staying safe in NYC (volunteering for the Red Cross). If everyone was as generous with their time as she is, the world would certainly be a nicer place.

I'm listening to "Broken Heart" by Spiritualized, and it never ceases to amaze me how beautiful this song is. Mmmm hmmmm.

Man, this week has really sucked. Grepton died a miserable and painful death, but has since been brought back to life with a new motherboard and a complete OS reinstall. I had so much to back up, and it's taking a while to get everything in order.

But I think I have a new crush. And it isn't the firewall this time.

Other than that, I expect to enjoy this evening with a some movies and a friend. Now that is what life is all about!

So, yes. I just bought a slice of cake at the bakery for 50 cents, and it isn't stale. You're jealous.

Last night was supposed to be Girl's Night Out with Laura, but we ended up meeting a male co-worker of ours at the bar, which was somewhat interesting. We'll have a true girl's night out next week, for sure. Though I am surely glad to have run into my buddy Mike as we were walking to the car. You have no idea how much I miss that kid. He sure does work some crazy hours!

I now have 3 computers that I need to get up and running. My lovely Grepton is breathing his last sweet breath, my unix box is still in need of some tlc from pmi, and my laptop needs to be re-named "Frankenstein". I think I found some suitable parts on Ebay. Gotta love it.

So, pmi and I went to the auto parts store the other night to get some parts for his Rabbit, and there was a TUFF woman with a mullet helping us. As pmi said, "I bet she rides a Harley with no seat."

I see that Leah finally received her package! The "finally" part is my lazy fault, of course. ;)

Back to work...

I missed the bus on Monday and had to call Trevor and Brian to pick me up. The day before, the three of us went shopping for my dvd player so that we'd have it for the CJS club meeting. The club meeting was productive, as always. Hopefully there will be more members soon.

And yesterday I got to eat lunch with Laura (girl talk Tuesday), and also finally got to hang out with my Pauly again later that evening. I'm so glad he quit smoking, and even more glad that he's becoming less bitchy. ;) We watched some of the special features on my Snow White dvd, which were actually quite interesting.

I'm wearing a BluegrassNet shirt today that is about 3 sizes too big.

Let's see... what else? Updated the Ask Spacebot! section again yesterday. I need more material, so tell your friends to email me questions.

And I made an appointment with a plastic surgeon to get my stretched earlobes fixed. While I'm there, I may have my wrist implants cut out, as well. Time to grow up. My friend Dre is proud of me, and said that I should have listened to her long ago about looking pretty instead of weird.

Today was exciting! I met my stock broker and bought my first real stocks today! (I played for fake money in the economics club in high school.) I bought 100 shares of a company that I despise... but they were down pretty low, and I'm pretty sure they'll make a comeback. Hell yes to my new addiction!

I updated the Ask Spacebot! section yet again! Keep sending in those questions! It's quite a bit of fun.

Other than that, I'm still deciding on a dvd player. I think I'm going with the Toshiba SD2715, unless anyone else has a better suggestion?

I also read a few chapters in my php book, and now know how to create forms and stuff. I'll have to work something into my site tomorrow, just to test it all out.

That is all.

Again, I have updated the Ask Spacebot! section with a new question! Keep on sending them in, kiddos. I get wittier with every response! ;)

So, Cam has left. We had our usual "moment" or two, mostly due to the age difference (I'm 4 years his senior), but overall we had an extremely fun time hanging out this week. It definitely gets more pleasant doing the "getting to know each other all over again as a good friend" thing as time passes. We saw Serendipity during 50 cent Tuesday at the dollar theatre, which was immediately followed by a pretty intense search for my missing hat... speeding over speed bumps, hitting numerous lost and founds, scavenger hunts in parking lots... only to have Cam recall that I must have left it at the good ol' Taco Bell. Those nice folks had it on the counter waiting for me, as they remembered me wearing it. Lucky girl, I am!

I also bought a bunch of dvds this week, even though I'm currently minus a dvd player. I suppose I should just buy one now and regret a possible bad decision later. I mean... watching the extremely rare imported copy of Girl on the Bridge that I won off of Ebay is top priority! Speaking of Ebay, I got a lovely Spiritualized poster in the mail today, which will be framed later tonight.

New Year's ended up working out, as my friends Trevor and Laura invited us over to their house for a small party. I had a glass of sparkling grape juice and watched my friend Brian eat 24 (or was it 48?) ice pops in about an hour's time. He looked really sick.
