Wednesday night, I went on a fishing bonanza, filling my Animal Crossing house with fish to sell the next day in one big selling run. Last night, a little while after I got home, I made my sales, getting myself up to over 85,000 bells (Animal Crossing currency), a hefty sum indeed. I continued fishing, wanting to break the 100,000 mark, when I came across one of my town’s residents. Franc...[Read More]
On last weeks show I mentioned the amazing arrival of Maynard James Keenan to Fresno. For those of you who have been living under a rock, MJK is the lead singer of TOOL, A Perfect Circle, and Puscifer. The man is a God. I’ve seen TOOL in concert 3 times over the past 10 years, and have been a huge fan for as long as I can remember. Let me tell you how insane I get over this man. Back when I ...[Read More]
After our trip to the Apple Store a couple of nights ago, we stopped by a See’s Candies shop, as it was on our way out of the mall, and we wanted some free candy samples. We walked in and picked up a couple of interesting shelf items before standing in line for the good stuff. Shortly after, one of the sales associates finished with her customer and came to serve us. We tried a couple of ...[Read More]
After visiting Lindsey’s great-great-uncle for his 91st birthday, we headed to the Apple Store to buy the Griffin Clarifi case for the 3G iPhone I bought her this week. We got there shortly after 8:00pm, and while looking at the wall of accessories, an associate stopped by to ask us if we needed any help. This associate was Michael M. Remember this, folks, because his name will come up ag...[Read More]
Then you’d better go catch it! Our refrigerator sucks as much as that joke. Our apartment came with a refrigerator. We considered this a good thing. However, even at level 5 out of 9 possible temperature levels, it still freezes yogurt, salad, and juice. Things which are NOT LOCATED IN THE FREEZER. A simple solution, you might say, is to keep turning it down until it stops freezing thin...[Read More]
So about a week ago I got my W2 in from my former job and got giddy. In all of my years filing taxes I have always gotten a return. A very nice return if I say so, but a lot of it comes from Earned Income Credit and the Child Tax Credit from my daughter. Anyways I was told that because now I own my own business, it would help if I were to go to a CPA because they could help me get the best return ...[Read More]
On December 23rd of last year (2008 to be exact) I entered myself in to a sweepstakes on www.theknot.com. For those of you who don’t know what The Knot is, it’s a wedding website and filled with girly stuff. I created an account there ages ago and hardly use it but since Chris and I are the ones paying for our wedding I have been on the internet searching for wedding related sweepstake...[Read More]
So here I am, sitting in my office, building some spreadsheets, when I get a message through AIM from Lindsey. lindsey (10:42:36 AM): OMG!!!! lindsey (10:42:42 AM): NKOTB IS COMING TO FRESNO! lindsey (10:42:47 AM): WE HAVE TO GO AND SEE THEM! chris (10:43:02 AM): ….

So last night after the MehCast, Chris and I were hungry however we didn’t feel like cooking. After a long debate over random fast food places in the area I decided that I really wanted chicken. The closest place to us was El Pollo Loco. I’ve been there before and have liked what I’ve had so far which made it an easy choice for me. I was craving flan and knew that I wanted a nice...[Read More]
Lindsey had her Mary Kay meeting last night. I, as always, attended as well, since she doesn’t have a driver’s license. Now, normally, the meetings last about an hour or two, which is fine, but last night’s meeting was almost four hours. Allow me to explain why that makes a difference. The chairs at the Mary Kay center, while appearing comfortable to one unaware of the truth,...[Read More]
Lindsey’s previous post was about her love of music. One thing she mentioned in the post was: “As I got older obviously my taste in music got better…” I beg to differ. Allow me to present you with Lindsey’s new hot favorite track, courtesy of last night’s episode of Nip/Tuck: youtube::rcR0nGstwOA:: Just kidding! I love you sweetie! -Because I said so
While browsing my daily webcomics for Tuesdays, I came upon an accompanying blog post that mentioned what was said to be a very interesting time paradox sci-fi story. Intrigued, I looked it up and read it online, as it was hosted for free in its entirety by UCSD (University of California, San Diego). It described a very interesting infinitely reoccurring time loop, which I found fascinating. Ho...[Read More]
