A little bit of this and that today:
************************
Still no new computer. I've been promised a replacement by the middle of next week, and hopefully, inshallah, this one will work just fine. My current unit (heh, I said unit) is about three years old now, and it's definitely time for an upgrade. I went all out, too.

I ordered a new computer online from Dell 10 days or so ago. A big shiny brand new one with top-of-the-line graphics capability to I can play WoW hardcore 
Big widescreen monitor to boot. Way too much money.

oh i;m going to bring back all the old sayings.
I'm back from SouthernBelle's birthday party. It was a hoot. This was my first true SGNC party, and it didn't disappoint. I introduced many of the folks to the wonders of Cabo Wabo, and even choked down a bit of Jagermeister for the birthday girl. It's gonna take weeks to get that taste out of my mouth.
I posted my pictures in my files....

SouthernBelle's Birthday Bash
Dangit, I gotta go back to work tomorrow....
Bleh. I was getting spoiled with this whole summer vacation thingy.
Ah well.
To be honest, I'm actually looking forward to the school year starting again. I'm sure the freshmen will look younger than they did last year, as per usual.

Of course they will, and as the British Press are on holiday, they'll all have better qualifications. 
I hate that they always jump on the A Level / GCSE pass rate every year. Meh.

Why can't the post be that fast in this direction? Damn it. That only went on Wednesday morning. Not via the work mail room. At all.

No, we can't be there... 
It just so happens that its Idjiit's mother's bday weekend, and well, she takes precedence. Maybe if we didn't like her as much as we do it would be different...Which is not to say that we don't like SouthernBelle, but you know...
Next time though! Glad you had another good trip!

Got back from Wilmington on Friday. The wife and I had a real nice time. We ended up staying at the C.W. Worth House which was lovely. Very dollhouse-ish. We got to stay in a room with a round "turret" which is something I've always wanted to do.
Lessee...we ate at both the Pilot House and Elijah's, both of which are highly recommended. We also...

Congrats on your upcoming anniversary! Have a great time!
I sound happy all the time??
I think you've only read half my journals, then. I definitely get my dark moods.
But, I'll take the compliment as inspiration to be happy and positive more often since it obviously affects people so well.
kriss is the person I think of as bright and happy. That girl has such a zest for life. She never takes life too seriously, and I love that!!!!

OK, I have an admission to make, one that I have never said among mixed company:
I am a comic-book geek. One that is deep in the closet.
Why in the closet? Well, because comic-book collectors, along with gamers (the pen and paper kind) and maybe anime fans (and a few others I'm forgetting) carry, well, somewhat of a "reputation."
Let's see if I can...

GEEK! hah! *points and laughs*
Well, its ok, I still like you. Despite the fact that I never got into comic books at all myself, I do love to read, and can appreciate the fact that you do too!
And yes, I chopped the hairs, but that's not a good picture.

OK I'm back from my San Antonio high school reunion and have recovered sufficiently enough to be able to post a bit about it.
Wow.
All I can say is wow!
It was a lot of fun, and the years melted away. Meaning, that it was like very little time had passed since we last saw one another. Old friendships were rekindled pretty quickly.

Yay to good highschool reunions! I didn't go to mine a couple years ago. 1) it wasn't worth the $300 airfare back to California, and 2) I didn't like most of the people I went to highschool, and really dreaded seeing a certain few. But part of me regrets not going. oh well.
Where you off to next?

We went to a conference in Medicine Hat in Feb 2004 and ran in to an army brat waitress from Andover, about 8 miles away from the twon I live. It is a small world.
