I went to a computer show today to help my buddy find parts for a computer he's building. While I was there, I picked up a cheap 2.1 set of speakers with the thought that I could buy a better set later when I have enough cash for it. I don't think I'm going to have to with the sound that I'm getting out of these.

The best thing that happened to me today is that I woke up as me! In my bed, next to my lovely wife, my dog at my feet, my two beautiful children sleeping in their rooms, one to the left, one to the right. I know right away that it was going to be a good day, regardless of what happened at silly ol' work! I just hope that tomorrow and the day after can start off like that.
Other than that, I caught that damn light at the end of my street this morning for the first time in five years!! What a personal victory! |

The best thing that happened to me today:
One of my friends needed advice, and I gave it to her (I mean I gave her good advice, you perv). Yep, they always come to BoCo when they need the answers....

um... finally got around to finishing Baldur's Gate 2: Throne of Bhaal. Got paying the rent out of the way for another 2 weeks. Had a good (albeit overpriced) roll from a local bakery. Didn't have to work.

I got to work this morning not really having a good day. Progressively, it got a little better, but then I read some of the posts in the Tilted News section. After thinking about it for awhile, I was happy to say I am proud of every mod, admin, regular poster or anyone who contributes to this board. After I thought about it some more, I decided it was about damn time I get my ass in gear and donate, so I did, hopefully it helps some.
And to all of the mods and admins and whatever other names you guys wanna go by, you all rock. And for some reason, that statement, to me, doesn't get accross how much I truly mean it. |

My wife and kids are at the cottage for the week, and while I miss them... I have a week to myself with little or no responsibilities...
Just like a vacation.

Today I, despite working 11 hours, managed to help several people get their PCs functional again after various issues broke them. They were very greatful and it felt good to help someone.

My best day was with my fiancee in Neijmegen, NL. We went on a walk through the park there, picked up some great groceries at the albert hijen and then made ourselves lunch, walked to another park and made out under these fantastic bushes after a great dinner. then we went home to her loft, made the sweetest love i have ever felt then went swiftly to sleep.
and then we woke up early, went on the roof to see the stars disappear and then made love on the roof in the most stunning dawn. THAT was a great day. |

I got a LOT of crappy stuff going on in my life right now, but today...I played golf with my dad.
Never turn down a chance to golf with dad. I even let him win. (Yeah right, he waxed my ass)

I found out that the chili I made at work for a church function went over extrordinarily well. The pastor asked me if I would be able to cook for more functions.
I figure making Church Chili will also get me off the hook for at least a few sins. |

Fixed part of my car that has been broken for awhile and saved myself 200 bucks of labor that I would've paid if I went to a mechanic. Also painted the dashboard while it was out. Tomorrow: put freshly painted dashboard back together, maybe hook up new stereo and put blue lights in the A/C vents so it glows blue when I ahve the A/C on.

i swallowed some of my pride, thus humbling me a bit which in turned proved that I am a human and not just another grudge holding jerk.
i have a huge ego in w some things, but keeping people and myself happy and humble is something i work hard on. |

I hit the gym yesterday for the first time with a couple weeks off. It's so hard for me to get back into the cycle when I miss a day (which turns into two, which turns into a week, etc); but boy did it feel great.
