OHAI!

 Sorry for not updating very much lately haha. Twitter is so much easier to use then having to find time to sit down and actually write something.

I've been riding a lot lately. Trying to get my horse into decent shape. At my departments retreat a couple weeks ago, I caught up with one of the ladies who works with us and she was talking about this like 3-4 day long trail ride that happens and said I should come, but that my horse would need to be in pretty good shape since it's all kinds of crazy terrain...so I don't know if I'll go but I know that both my horse and I need to be in good shape overall :) So I've been trying to ride as often as I can when I'm not completely dead from work and such. Abby and I have been going together a lot which is really nice. It's really great to have someone to just ride around with. We've been doing ring-work, and just riding out on the roads and in the fields. Tons of fun.

I guess we're dating now? Boyfriend/girlfriend, I don't know, maybe?! Hahaha. It really makes no difference to me, I guess it matters to her though, a girl thing? Who knows...

We went out to dinner with her sister and husband the other night which was really nice. I like them both, great people. We've been spending a lot of time together haha. I can't believe she hasn't gotten sick of me yet. She made me these amazingly delicious rice crispy treats too, love love love!! She totally doesn't seem to care that I have assault rifles either, I think this could be the beginning of an amazing relationship haha

Well, I've got at least 1 consulting appointment this morning, then probably getting lunch with my mom, need to get some pricing and set an appointment to get a fuck ton of things fixed on my car. Then I might have another appointment. We just put together a proposal to write an application for renting DVDs. It should be a fun learning experience.

Anyways, have a lovely day everyone! xoxo

My Life In a Nutshell...

I've been seeing this girl as of late. We've been getting along pretty well. I've known her for like 5 years, but I guess things just fell into place and we are seeing each other if that's what you want to call it. On Friday we went to dinner and a movie, she happily saw Terminator: Salvation with me, I guess that means things are definitely off to a good start. A girl that'll watch Terminator with you can't be all that bad right. I won't really go into specifics about how the relationship is working because I saved that for my Death Note.

Today, I hung out with her again at the barn. We ended up riding too which was really nice. And actually, on Friday me, her and another girl from the barn went on a ride together. We just rode up the road next to the barn, but it was pretty fun and exciting. I enjoy being with those girls, they're pretty nice to me, and we all seem to have fun together.

Not much else has been going on with me besides the normal things. Working, riding, hanging with this new girl. I can't complain about life.

There is a possibility that I'll be moving to Boston in as little as 2 months or so, it all depends on my current job and things. It could be really exciting if it happens. And now is the time in my life when shit like that needs to happen...

Tomorrow, not much happening, probably hanging out with that girl a little. I have to work at the barn at some point. I might go for a ride.

Now I'm loosing focus so this entry shall end. Have a Wonderful week all.

A Photo Post!

Finally had some time to get photos of my iPhone & camera.

New Database Server )

Nippet )

Had a really busy day today so far. Been out consulting since like 9am. Worked at the barn, played with my horse a little bit. Got a few emails and things taken care of. Going to dinner tonight with my parents to celebrate my Dad's birthday, woohoo!

Busy Busy!!

 Had a really good time this weekend. My buddy/best friend came up from Massachusetts to get a couple things done up here in VT. He picked out the place for his wedding and it's pretty local so I'm happy. I'll be the best man there, actually one of two, so that's going to badass. I'm pretty excited for that. Also snagged an 1911 and an M203 from him, so I am super psyched about that. Not much else went on this weekend. We finished up a large portion of the new database server with lots of help from [info]ltdan. Poor [info]morgan spent like 5 hours trying to figure out the right Gentoo Linux image to use and then creating the bootable USB key. Finally around 12am on Sunday morning we finished up with the base OS install. I think this week we'll work on getting MySQL up and running and setting up permissions and other fun things.

Saturday I went out for an amazing ride on my horse. We just ran through the fields, and up hills and had an amazing time. I don't think I could bring myself to sell him. I'd rather live in a cardboard box then have to sell him.

Today, I worked at the barn and on some class work. Also decided that we're not going to do offsite backup from this location. Instead I've written a script that snags what we were going to backup offsite, copies any changes since last copy to an external drive. I'll then take that drive to a much faster network connection and backup from there. This will allow me to also backup email backups which we weren't planning on doing.

That's about all I have planned for today. I also made a Subversion and Trac repository/project respectfully for DeathNote. I think we're going to need to buy a new server if we really want to be serious about DeathNote.me because currently we're running the site on a 32bit system and we should really be using a 64bit system. I was thinking about doing another Chenbro case, 2U this time. And run 2 OS drives mirrored and 2 drives for MySQL. I think that'd be pretty badass. But that's going to be at least $1500, which we don't have...especially since we just spent like $2300 on the new database server haha.

I'm watching Fruits Basket but it's an English dub and I'm like "this" close to dropping it because I can't stand the annoying English voices and phrases and whatnot. It's terrible, especially after having just watched Welcome to the NHK which was amazing. Alright, I suppose that's enough chatter. :)

Friesian Is Getting There!!

 So finally UPS came around 4:30 and dropped off the logic board. I've been working on getting all the components that we've got installed into the new database server (aka Friesian). I took some pics, they're on my FaceBook. It's getting there. I ordered the PSU from eWiz and I actually just got an email from them saying the items have been shipped. I also snagged a 4GB MicroSD card so I can start using my DS again and "playing" My Japanese Coach hehe. It was like $10 for the little 4GB card, so I thought that was a good deal. Some how adding that brought the 3 day shipping down to $30 from $60...weird.

So what else...that's about it since I last posted. I forgot to mention that I saw Sara yesterday. She was a girl who used to be at my old barn but she left when we did....mostly because the new barn manager was a complete moron and no one liked her. Sara's sister Abby is helping at Towne-Ayer this week since Rita and Bethany are at the Vermont Spring Classic horse show...so Sara came along with her yesterday to see the horses and all. It was really nice seeing her. I actually kind of had a crush on her before [info]emilie ...but some how Sara knew about Emilie and I breaking up and when I was talking about how crazy Emilie was, Sara was like yeeeeah haha....I love how everyone knew this before I really saw it, I would have loved it if someone had told me before I spent 4 years of my life with this girl hahaha. But whatever, to be honest, I don't regret a single second I spent with Emilie, the fights, the good times, the amazing times, the horrible times, I wouldn't trade it for the world. But yeah, enough of that haha...

So I'm just catching up on emails, and some forums and stuff, going to hit the bed soon. I'm tired!!

Oh yeah, no YouTube links for the OVA...that will not count, it has to be a file I can download! :) Thanks.

Fantastic Life

 Wow, today was amazing by any standards. I did wake up a bit later then usual, but it was okay. Woke up. worked on editing the Horse.13 project page. Removed [info]emilie 's links since she's not really apart of the "family" anymore and added the Trac and Subversion sections. Then I chatted with a couple friends, took a shower and watched some Welcome to the NHK which is hilariously amazing. I really love this series! I've got the first manga in the series, but I sure as hell would love to collect them all :) I've never collected a full manga series, which makes me sad. I've love to get all the Death Note books along with Welcome to the NHK. Maybe Gunslinger Girl too and Couple, hehe I love them all!! :)

Call me weird or whatever...but I'd also like to try out one of those Japanese dating sim games, obviously the non-Hentai ones. Just to see what it's like...maybe I'll snag one of JList or something.

This afternoon I spent at the barn work my horse. We did some jumping which was fun...although the outdoor was a bit mushy...but we had an awesome time nonetheless. I uploaded a couple pictures of him to Facebook. I really want to get another DSLR camera, probably the Canon Digital Rebel XTi or the XSi. Both very amazing. I wish I had my Rebel XT...oh well.

The CPU and motherboard to the new server should be in this week. I'll be ordering the PSU whenever the final funds hit my bank account.

Talked to my farrier today. I'm probably going to install ZenCube or whatever that shopping cart/ecommerce software is called and we'll use that. I think it might be easier to integrate that into the site theme over something like OSCommerce.

Tonight, nothing is going on. Probably watching some more Welcome to the NHK. I probably forgot to mention that I got my "Death Note" in the mail the other week. It's awesome. The first pages contain the rules, the next page has a few names that Light wrote down and the next says "Lind L. Tailor and then some more names. Basically it's amazing!! Any Death Note fan should have one :) [info]morgan  and I both got em.

I got a few new JDRAMAs, can't remember the names at the moment. I have so many things I need to watch haha. I think I would like to see Wolverine...has anyone seen it? Thoughts? How about that Star Trek movie? I've not really a Star Trek fan, but I heard it was kind of cool.

Oh yeah, I registered for Fundamentals of Nutrition and Japanese Communication, I am wicked psyched about taking them this summer!!!

Peace out!

War All Of The Time...

It's pretty much been forever since I've updated. I've been insanely busy with about a billion things going on. So [info]emilie  and I are pretty much done. I'm sick of her jerking me around and all of that bullshit. It's funny because now even her roommate is starting to dislike her. It's a common trend I am seeing with this girl, so it's a wonder that I hung around with her for 4 years. Pretty much everyone she comes in contact with her, she ends up lying and laying out all of her bullshit and they end up hating her. It's too bad. She used to be an amazing girl. If she'd just stop lying and being who she used to be (an amazing, cute, funny and wonderful person) then she might actually keep some of these people as friends. I don't get it...it's sad really because she really was amazing...but whatever. It's not my issue anymore. I've moved on and I am actively seeking out a new girlfriend, someone who's honest, caring and enjoy being with me because they like me.

There are so many other things I want to say about this girl, but I am not sure if it's worth my time haha

I applied for a job as a Linux Server Administrator at one of the local ISPs but I was too over-qualified and asking for too much money haha. I'm too smart for my own good, so while that kind of sucks (sucks because I love Linux/server administration) it's a good thing because I will now stay at UVM and I will probably be getting a degree in Equine Science and possibly Japanese communication which I am really excited about! It's going to be a lot of fun. I'm taking Japanese Communication and Fundamentals in Nutrition this summer, and I'll be taking probably another 2-3 classes this fall. Really awesome...

I've been working with [info]morgan  to build our new server. 95% of it is out of pocket money which sucks, but we love doing it so it'll be worth it. Currently we've only got the RAID card, case, rails and the brackets for the PSU. The case is wicked sexy. I'll post some pics and stuff when we get more of the gear in.

I've been riding a lot, and my horse is showing it. He's getting nice and muscley(??) haha. He's looks amazing. I'll be riding again tomorrow night after work, so that'll be fun! And tomorrow is Friday, so that makes it even more fun!!

I've started watching Welcome to NHK, and I like it so far, although I've only seen one episode. I have a feeling it'll be some good fun :) I also finished Death Note, which I absolutely loved. Really awesome series :D Ryuk is hilarious! I really want to watch Resident Evil: Degeneration, I semi-watched it like a month or two ago, but I would really like to actually have time to pay attention and not watch it while doing 200 other things. Haha.

Not much else going on besides all that...today I'm just going home to relax. I might work on a bit of my Japanese stuff, but that's about it.

It's Getting Better...

 Been a bit since I last updated. Many things have happened since. Last week was nothing unusual. It went by really quickly. There's been a lot to do at work, because one of the big projects at work finally got some more funding so they've been going full speed ahead and they've got a lot of web work for me to be doing. I usually tended to do things slowly or not at all, so there wouldn't be days where I wasn't working. But now it's pretty crazy. I've been working most days with zero breaks until the end of the day, or I'll work until 4:15 or so, and just leave for the day, rather do my lunch then haha. It works though, I'd rather just get a lot done, so I feel accomplished and then have a nice break or leave early.

[info]emilie  and I hung out on Thursday. We've started playing World of Warcraft. We're humans on Turylon. I'm a mage and she's a paladin. We're definitely having fun with it. We sing the Billy Maclure song, mostly because we are questing in a mine (Jasperload and Fargo Deep) hehe. We're so silly. We both bought little cat pets too, to match the ones we have in real life :) I think we'll be shortly going to Westfall since we're pretty much done in Elwynn Forest. I'm having a blast with it. I could work on my 56 Orc but, I really just don't have time at the moment.

I've been watching Death Note too. It's fantastic! I really really love it! I think I might buy the manga at some point too. It's really really great stuff! :)

Today, not much happened, I watched some Death Note, and hung at the barn. I am going to be sponsoring one of my friends classes at the big Morgan horse show in Massachusetts this summer. That's really great, she's a really good rider.

Tonight, my plans are study Japanese and probably more Death Note, I really like how I am starting to understand some of the words written & spoken in anime, TV and movies. Hehe.

Hold On...

Sunday, [info]emilie  was sick so she didn't end up coming over. It was okay though cause she called me and we talked for a bit so that was nice. Then Monday I got her to help me with my car and picking it up from the repair place. I spent like $100 on repairs, and it needs another like$400-500. Uuugh, I think once I get that stuff done I'm definitely trading it in for a Subaru WRX. There's really no sense in me dropping more money into it.

I did have a consulting appointment on Monday today, which was before I got together with Emilie, but it was really easy and quick. Then we picked up my car, got lunch at Quiznos, then headed out to the barn. I took a couple photos of Nippet, she took a couple of me and I took a couple of her. We just had a fun time :) After that, we came back to the house, I let her work on her resume and get a couple copies printed off. Then we just hung for a little bit and then she was off.

Today, nothing special. I wanted to flash the Cisco switches with some new firmware, but didn't get to it. Maybe this weekend. Nothing special going on this week except Norma Jean and Underoath on Friday which is going to be amazing. Weekend not much going on, I'll probably end up hanging out with Emilie I would think.

Fairpoint sent me a bill this weekend, after I had cancelled my service like back in January...so I called them today, I think was on hold for like 30 minutes, sheesh. Finally got through and got it taken care of, apparently their bill processing is a bit behind, so even though the service was cancelled, the billing part of it wasn't, so they're going to get that taken care of.

Alright, well, I'm tired and I've got work in the AM, oh joy. Hahaha.

Do You Feel Alive...?

Just got a whole ton of new music. I've actually not listened to much of it yet, but the new Vanna album is quite amazing. It's definitely going to go on my iPod :) I've been working a lot on adding stuff into Delicious Library. I've completed movies, so I guess next I'll work on video games and TV shows. We're like 7 episodes away from having 4,000 TV episodes haha. We've also got like 950 movies which is nuts. I'm really hurting on space now haha. I can't wait to get a new server. I'll be able to offload like 100GB+ onto there.

Yesterday, I didn't really do much, actually, I did like nothing at all haha. Around 2 or so, I went to the barn and worked there. It's so nice seeing all the horses and everything. Was also really nice to see Rita and Bethany and her new horse Joy. She's a really good looking horse. After that, I stopped by the old apartment and we picked up the server rack and a few other items that had been left behind. Got back and put everything that would fit in the rack, in there. I'll have to take some photos, maybe this afternoon :) Or how about right now :)


 
More Photos... )


More Photos... )

So there you have it, a few photos. I am really hoping to get that new database server before the beginning of summer. We're really in need of a decent box for handling it all. Today...

Woke up around 9...definitely a bit later then I was hoping for, but it's okay. I think I finished a Dirty Jobs episode, got some breakfast. Then [info]emilie called and we chatted for a bit, figured out some plans for today. I think I'll head to the barn around 2pm or so, get my chores done, then we're going to meet up at the grocery store and pickup some stuff to make a nice meal at her place...I dunno what else we're going to do. I'll finally be able to see my kitty.

Hopefully the roads aren't too bad. I guess just take it nice and easy and it'll be fine. So now I'm going to read a bit of my Anime Insider mag and maybe watch a movie. Have a lovely day everyone! :)

Busy Weekend

Wow, time is really flying. I am definitely not a fan of it either. I remember back in grade school where the days would just drag on forever and I would always wish for them to go so much faster, terrible idea! Now I barely have time to do anything and the days are really zipping by. I mean I feel like it was just spring and now it's already mid-fall. It sucks.

Anyways, I finally went riding the other night. I plan on going tonight again today. I definitely had a good time. I love being up there on the top of a horse. It's magical.

Yesterday was the horse "stuff" auction. I ended up getting 2 blankets, a pair of gloves, a brush and some lead ropes. [info]emilie and I were going to buy 2 helmets but some lady bid $55 and we bid $50...so instead of them making $100 they made $55 haha, tards. Got to see the horse too so that was nice, picked a bunch of burs out of his tail...

I played some COD4 yesterday also, fun times, although I got pissed and ended up leaving in the middle of one game. I did rather well in my other games though. I've got to get back into playing some single player games, like I should finish up Star Fox...and move onto the next game in my huge ass list. I do need to add some new games to that list also.

Not much going on today, just finishing up some things, doing some stuff around the apartment. Might have a possible consulting call to go out on, but not 100% sure. Looks like it's going to be a pretty easy day, which I hope it is :)

I would like to try to start playing a character on our World of Warcraft server. I still really haven't found time to do that yet :) I'll probably go Blood Elf so [info]emilie and I can play together.

A Bit of an Update...

Horses - I've been extremely busy so beyond working at the barn I've not really done a lot with Nippet. It totally sucks. every since I've started working at UVM I've just felt to dead to ride or anything. I've been telling myself to bring my tack home for like the last 2 weeks and every time I forget. I just want to give them a good cleaning, since the last time I really did it was probably a year ago or more, lame.

I noticed his fly sheet that I just bought him already has a rip in it. I also should buy better straps because the one from his winter blanket are just way to elasticky. I also noticed the belly straps come undone about every day.

I've been meaning to order some fly spray for about month now, but that never happened either, god, I am like the worst horse owner ever. I guess I won't really be needing it anymore as the temperatures are pretty much cold again and the flies are gone, I'll have to monitor it though, if they seem bad, I'll definitely pick up a bottle at the very least, the gallon refill can wait till next Spring.

I definitely hope I can get some better time with him Wednesday even though it'll be after a UVM day...it's not like I've got anything else scheduled.

Geek - I had an epically and way to long of a battle with Mac OS X Server and a new client and getting it on as a mobile home directory. What a pain in the ass!! The home directory is still all messed up, the permissions are all screwed up, mostly for the Public and Sites folder which sucks, but whatever. I think eventually at some point, I'll rebuild the server and then go from there. That might be a project for next weekend.

I've been working with [info]morgan to get one of the Cisco switches working. We did manage to update the 2924 with new settings which is awesome, but the 2900XL is still being a pain in the ass...

Other - Work at UVM is going. I definitely do not have the right tools I need to perform my duties completely. It's really lame, there's no software disks, I don't really have my own computer still.

[info]emilie went down to PA this weekend to visit her folks. I stayed here cause I have a buncha stuff to do. Umm, nothing else I really feel like writing about now, so have a good one folks.

New Miyazaki Film?

I knew that Miyazaki had been working on a new film although I'd heard that Howl's Moving Castle was his last (thank god it's not!). Here's a trailer for it! Definitely looks awesome, I can't wait to see it.

I've been pretty busy lately, consulting and working at the barn. I suppose I should actually go and do that now before the weather turns to complete ass.

Been watching a bunch of Doug and Rocko's Modern Life. I beat Grand Theft Auto IV, definitely a fun game, the first GTA I've beaten although I am trying to beat III on my PSP. I broke out Final Fantasy III also, finally got through that Nepto's Dungeon area. A good game!

I've got a bunch of consulting appointments scheduled between this week and next. I've got to call Keith and see if he got the Apple job.

Not much else to say at the moment, I just want to go to the barn and do some work and see the horses, so I'll write later!

To Boston!

This weekend was decent. I saw Batman: The Dark Night with Keith on Friday night. Absolutely fantastic, I think I would gladly pay another $9.00 to see it again. There were several parts where I thought it was the end of the movie but it wasn't and it just kept getting better and better. It was really well done, and yes, Heath Ledger was outstanding. He really played the part and he played it pretty damn well in my opinion. I definitely enjoyed that movie.

On Saturday, Emilie and I hung out. I had built a new R.O.S.E Online server for us so we spent some time playing with it. We actually had stayed up till around 1am on Friday playing. We're pretty much back to where we were when I had a server going the last time. I am definitely kicking myself for not remembering to backup the SQL database though, but it's fun. I did hit a pretty big bug since my client was more up to date then the database and CSV files though. Eventually I found a proper fix and it all seems to work well now. I'm already level 23 and I've got into the soldier class. [info]emilie chose to be a muse. We're having fun with it.

On Sunday, it pretty much rained all day, so we played some more R.O.S.E. Then we went to see the horses and I worked there and got my stalls cleaned. Then we went over to my parents for dinner which was great, also had some AMAZING pie for dessert. We actually got to take home the leftovers (of which I had some of today). I picked up my Lego sets that had been sitting there and when Emilie and I got home from my parents I worked on rebuilding them. I was missing quite a few guys though and a few pieces. Not a big deal though, I'm actually surprised I had as much as I did.

Today was Buddy's vet appointment so that was fun (not for him, me). He got jabbed with like 4-5 needles lol. I definitely enjoy watching them do it and all, and I try to ask questions and stuff...they're REALLY WONDERFUL. I love my vets. They're super nice and helpful to me. I also got my stalls done while I was there.

I was hoping that I could have stopped by to drop of the Wacraft maps and DBC files but they weren't done extracting from the client by the time I had to leave. So now I've got to upload like 3GBs of data to a server...getting close though. Probably won't be done until tonight though. At least now I've found this really nice application which downloads the source code for the server, it grabs the database, and then it compiles the code and pretty much does everything, I love automation!

This afternoon, I got some consulting calls done, I re-scheduled my consulting appointment for tomorrow to Wednesday. Keith and I are going to Boston tomorrow for his interview at the Apple store, although that might be a sucky drive for him if he gets it. Then we're going to bum around Boston, hit up Fire & Ice which will be awesome, maybe hit up Newbury Comics and maybe Chinatown, who knows. It's definitely going to be awesome.

I hope everyone had a lovely weekend. This week is going to be pretty busy for me!!

Here's some pictures of my new character in the server.

Fog-Free!!

I believe I mentioned in my last post that I've gotten most of my new multicam and other gear. I was going to post some pictures but my camera is pretty much useless without the flash and I am not taking everything outside. I've got to buy a new camera, unfortunately, I don't really have $200 for a new camera at the moment. I would love to get my hands on a new Rebel XT or the XTi or that new one, I can't remember the name. Anyways, the rest of my stuff should be coming in the next few hours...

Yesterday I was consulting in Montpelier, relatively short. Unfortunately for the customer it looks like he's got a bad power supply unit. After that I went out and got lunch with Emilie. We had some really good pizza from this place I've not been too happy with. I guess they're okay with slices and stuff, but sitting down in the more restaurant-like area was pretty much a nightmare. After lunch I dropped her back off at work and I went and worked the barn. The kitties are dwindling, not sure what happened to them. I just assume they've been given away. There's only 2 left now, a female and a male. The other original mommy kitty is pregnant, so they're going to have more kitties.

Watched Hellboy and Beowulf yesterday. I had been hesitant about watching Beowulf, not sure why, I thought it'd be really lame, but it wasn't that bad. I actually like that golden dragon at the end there. The animation was really amazing too, well done. I mean it definitely looked animated in some spots but in others it was just amazing. I had pretty much forgotten about what happened in Hellboy, so that's why I watched it. Definitely an awesome movie. I hadn't realized Liz was in that movie either. I definitely enjoyed the creatures in Hellboy II a lot more though, a lot weirder!

Did some consulting calls and emails this morning, also took a shower, still haven't had breakfast although by this time, I think it's lunch.

I did watch this G4 show on GameTrailers, mostly of Gears of War 2 stuff. Wicked awesome though. Don't call Cliff Blezinski, Cliffy B. though, he'll kick you in the balls :) Good waste of 20 minutes haha I can't wait for the game. This week is E3, so there's going to be a lot of cool games and announcements coming.

Tomorrow is my good friend Greg's birthday. He's the guy I play airsoft with. Tomorrow we're probably going to meet-up in New Hampshire at this gun range and we're probably be shooting MP5s, UMPs, M16s, AK47s, etc...it's definitely going to be fun. I am not sure I'll have time to get him a present, but I'll be going down to his place at the end of the month for another OP so I'll see if I can get him something by then. I just barely got my sister a present and her birthday is in April...lol.

I've got a consulting appointment this afternoon, in about an hour. I've got to find something for lunch (we have no food in this place...)...and then the afternoon is mine.

I finally bought Howl's Moving Castle on DVD. Now I just need Miyazaki's other films, I think Spirited Away will be my next one, then maybe Castle in the Sky.

I'll be posting again maybe today with some pictures of the horses. I took em yesterday, I just need to touch them up in iPhoto and Pixelmator.

GTAIV & Vets

I've been semi-busy the last couple of days, hence no real updates. At one point the main database server for Scribbld went funky and the OpenDirectory service crapped out. Fortunately I don't have many real OD users so it was pretty easy to get that back up and running. I think I'll be making backups every so often of that because it's really lame that it just lost all that data, quite suck-ass in-fact.

I hung out with Greg on Friday, we just went to the Army Navy store, Ming Moon, and a couple of gun shops. Parro's has the best stuff, the assault rifles (real steel) were like $800-$1300 which isn't too bad really. I never found the little med kit that Greg has, maybe I will have to look online for it.

This weekend [info]emilie and I took care of my parents house. I've been playing a bunch of GTAIV, it's a lot of fun, Greg seemed to like it a lot too.

Watching Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and some Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad too. Episode 6 I think it was pretty much put me to sleep, the end was so crap.

We did go and see WALL-E, I absolutely loved it. I plan on going at least once more to see if I can find the pizza planet truck and the other things.

Had a vet appointment for my horse today. They gave him some drugs to "calm" him, within about 30-45 seconds he was almost asleep haha He was out pretty good which was nice, he was done with his shots, teeth, and cleaning in about 15 minutes. The whole thing cost about $100 less then I thought it would so that's really nice.

Emilie and I watched The Two Towers this evening and an episode of Beck. This episode was much better then the last, a bit more funny.

Tomorrow and Wednesday I have consulting appointments, it should be good stuff, relatively easy. That reminds me I need to email Wednesdays appointment to see where they're located. Eeeh I keep getting side tracked...

So yeah, I think it's time to call it a night, maybe I'll surf the web a bit or read some Anime Insider. Have a lovely night all!
