Earlier last week I placed an order with Think Geek. I had never ordered anything from them before but Chris had. I was familiar with their products and if I had all the money in the world, I would probably order one of everything they sell because they have some pretty awesome stuff. One of the things I ordered was this putty type stuff that is used to help fix electronics. Chris has had problems...[Read More]
I hate the dentist. Now that I’ve gotten that out of the way, I feel that I can properly rant about the bullshit that occurred this past Saturday. Before I get into that, here is what happened last year: Towards the end of March I knew I needed to make an appointment to see the dentist (it had been AGES since I had seen one). Having Denti-Cal, it makes it really hard to find somebody who is ...[Read More]
For the past week or so, Donnie has been scratching under his right arm straight in the arm pit itself. I’ve checked to see if he was injured there, if there is a bug bite, and if there is anything to warrant his persisent scratching yet I have found nothing. Chris and I have kept a close eye on it to make sure it doesn’t get worse or need medical attention. These past few days he has ...[Read More]
Last night Chris and I attended the midnight premiere for Watchmen, and it was epic. Both Chris and I will be making a blog with our own personal reviews however this particular blog is to clue you in about the idiots we had to tolerate for 2 hours prior to the movie starting. Earlier in the day we had picked up our tickets and some snackies because, let’s be honest, the prices for snacks at...[Read More]
A few weeks ago I submitted a support ticket to my company’s IT department regarding my mouse. It was a standard optical mouse, and for the most part worked fine, except for the scroll wheel, which refused to scroll. I use the scroll wheel often, so this was a problem. I requested a replacement mouse, and was provided with one shortly thereafter. However, it seems to me that my fortunes ...[Read More]
Yesterday certain mother fuckers lit a fire under me over Twitter and now I get to properly express my true feelings to you – and not be restricted to 140 characters. To Zut_Radio, where do you get off pointing the finger at others and thinking that you are so high and mighty? First off, you have the nerve to insult my intelligence yet you can’t even properly compose a sentence? Then a...[Read More]
I mentioned in the blogs yesterday that Saturday was pretty eventful – in both good and bad ways. Chris and I woke up a little bit before 10 and started off our day being bums. While he was out taking Donnie for a walk I made a phone call to make an appointment to get my hair cut. I know this might not sound exciting but I haven’t had it cut, or even trimmed, since November 2007. I was...[Read More]
Our dog Donnie finally came here with us earlier this week on Tuesday. The transition from him being solely outside to the apartment has been very smooth, and expensive. Right around the time we got him last year we purchased a squeaky toy that looks just like a squirrel. Ty, the beanie baby company, makes them and has about 9 different ones to choose from – not all squirrels though. The ori...[Read More]
If anyone has ever played any iteration of the Mario Kart series, then you know that the CPU controlled competitors start getting extremely cheap near the end of races. Mario Kart Wii is no different than previous releases in the series. It introduces motorbikes as vehicles, with the 50cc races being confined to karts, 100cc confined to motorbikes, and 150cc offering a choice. While I experience...[Read More]
So Lindsey sends me an IM today mentioning that Target is having a sale on DVDs. She mentions Wall-E, then The Dark Knight and Kung Fu Panda. For various reasons, we do not yet own The Dark Knight or Kung Fu Panda, which, for me, is very strange. I have a very large collection of DVDs, and I generally buy new releases that I want as soon as they hit the shelves. Unfortunately, money has been s...[Read More]
Yesterday, while playing Animal Crossing, Chris and I decided to check out the Married Gamers (Chris and Kelly) live podcast on Ustream. It was really entertaining and we found ourselves laughing a lot. Towards the end of their podcast they mentioned that they were going to get some lunch at Chick-Fil-A. Chris was in the kitchen getting ready to make lunch so I asked him if he would want to go and...[Read More]
In an earlier blog posted about a week and a half back my terrible H&R Block story was told. Some of you might remember the ordeal I had to go through just to file my taxes and some of you might not. Basically I went through a bunch of bull just to file simple taxes and got the run around at 2 different locations. I e-filed my taxes on the 7th and was told that I would get my return, which is ...[Read More]
