I work at a photo printing store now, which doesn’t mix very well with my hands, because they are oily pretty much all the time. It’s not that I don’t wash them or anything, I’m just a naturally oily-handed person, you see, and it’s a condition that we have to live with.But back to the […]
My desk has a pretty huge pile of wires behind it, as do most computer geeks. You’ve got powercords to almost every device, monitor cables, mouse/keyboard cables, USB wires, USB hubs, external hard drives, the list goes on and on.
Pretty soon most of that stuff will be wireless though. I already have a wireless mouse, […]
It takes me about 3 “snoozes” in the morning to finally wake up. Which is kind of silly when you think about it, because after the alarm goes off the first time, you are getting less than 10 minutes at a time of sleep, which can’t be very good sleep. So you might as well […]
I bite my nails a lot… every time one grows out enough that I can “feel it” I bite it off. It’s a pretty bad habit I guess but it gives me something to do when I’m sitting around being bored. I’ve also grown my nails really long before, so it’s not like I can’t […]
Most people have a “usual” order at their favorite restaurants. I don’t frequent any one place enough that I can walk into it and say I’ll have “the usual”, but here are my usual orders for the restaurants I frequent. If you happen to work in one of these restaurants in the Chattanooga, TN area, […]
Continues in video games are important. Back in the olden days there was no such thing as continues. Which really sucked because you never saw more than the first level or two of a game. More important than continues though, are saves. This is one reason I love gaming on the GameBoy Advance, because most […]
My wife’s parents came down to visit this weekend, and her dad helped fix the lighting in our kitchen/dining room. For around 6 months we haven’t had light in either room except for the light above the stove. Turns out we just needed to replace the lightbulbs! Actually one of the lights really didn’t work. […]
I love the little pulsating light on my Macs that lets me know they are sleeping. It makes it look like they are calmly breathing as they sleep, all happy and cozy… Yes I’m aware it’s just a computuer, but Macs are a whole lot more personable than a Windows machine. You can’t really […]
Late fees are a thing of the past now that I use Netflix, just like the marketing says! It really is quite nice to just queue up the movies you want to watch and have them delivered a couple of days after you send one back. Then you can keep it as long as you […]
The first bike I remember having was one that I got in Florida while my family visited my grandma. I think she bought it for me. It was a white and red and black BMX bike. I learned to ride it on the flat roads of Florida after my dad put on the training wheels. I rode it a lot, crashed a lot. Had that same bike for years and years until my dad got me a Bridgestone MB6 mountain bike, which was pretty nice. Until it got stolen out of the fenced patio of his condo a few years later. I missed it. Haven’t owned a bike since then. I just can’t bring myself to replace my old MB6… Sniffle…
