Went for a ride to Lansing today to meet up with George. Did a little bit of shopping in Lansing also. We had lunch at Big John’s Steak and Onion, I think the place was called. It was a nice day to just hang and spend with Nohemi.

My new super delicious boots from Sanuk. It’s so warm and toasty and weighs nothing.
Valentines Day
Watched Valentines Day with Nohemi at the Rave. It was a very cute movie, I liked it. Team Jacob was in it. Not that I watched it because of the odd looking boy from Grand Rapids.

It has happened to me occasionally but I have a crimping tool, test and buckets of RJ45 connectors. In a pinch, this would probably come in handy.
Doing my taxes… in February. This is probably the earliest I have ever filed my taxes… ever.
The auction is a bust. No Nissan Rogue for Hywell next week.

Apple Fan Boy?
Am I a fan boy? I called tech support at Apple and was pleased with the results. No elevated blood pressure. It has to be the fan boy syndrome and nothing to do with good customer service.
Update: I inadvertently discovered comments in tumblr. Add a question mark on the title of the post and it asks you if you want people to leave answers.

Why does it feel like the older one gets the more cynical, grumpy, jaded, angry one becomes? It is increasingly difficult not to be affected by other people’s nastiness.
Hermits. They must know something that I don’t.
I wish one could inherit “life outlook” from people. I would have fought hard to get a little piece of Abuelo’s outlook on life.

Flickr = Censorship
I am being censored by Flickr because I posted pictures of Es Trenc in my account. Es Trenc is a nude beach. I cannot believe that I paid to be censored.
Update:
The community guideline stipulates moderating ones own content. Something that I was more than glad to do. Now, the customer care person I am dealing with, Terrence, is forcing me to delete images from my photostream.

Saw Nanay on Yahoo Messenger today. It was awesome!
I broke down and bought a legit copy of Windows 7 Home for Nohemi. It is worth the $100 OEM price at Newegg but definitely not worth the other price schemes.
Came into work at 6:30AM! Now, I can barely stay awake because I woke up on the hour the entire night fearing that I wouldn’t hear the alarm clock.
Super Bowl XLIV
Going to be listening to the Carrusel Deportivo coverage of the Super Bowl.
XBMC & my Mac mini
The old Mac mini is now attached to the TV in the living room. Installed is the most recent version of XBMC with additional plug ins. The most exciting find is the repository of hundreds of anime shows that can be streamed through XBMC. The Justin.tv plug in makes the watching of La Liga games easier.
I can finally catch up on Naruto Shippuuden. But we get to watch the Real Madrid v. Espanyol...
My first Tumblr post using my 38” LCD TV.
Why? Why do people have the need to clip their nails in the office? It’s nasty.
Bazinga!
