Official word from the doctor: I have a viral infection with Strep Throat as a secondary infection…fun.
Playing DDO now. It’s no WoW, but it’s free and pretty good all things considered. UI needs some serious work, though.
Used a Neti Pot twice today. Weird, but I’m hoping it helps.
Wife and kid sick now, too. One big unhappy family.
sick is no fun.
I are flu.
I’m drinking a homebrewed beer flavored with wintergreen altoids. I’ll get the name later…
Heck, I forgot the name of the beer again…it was Biere de Merseberg or something. German beer but recipe came from French beermaking book.
Just beat Call of Duty: World at War on Veteran difficulty. Hardest CoD yet, completely maddening! Glad it’s over. Grenade spam sucks. #xbox
Wish I was at PAX
Desktop Cleanup Wizard is entirely stupid.

At dentist. Almost done with temporary crown.
I broke a tooth yesterday. It sucks.
Phillies won handily with 4 home runs and and only giving up 2 hits. Yay Phils!!!
Phillies hit two home runs in a row, woo!
My printer: You didn’t just buy a printer…you bought a printing system!
Me: lol.
Finally got a new Xbox 360, yay? Returned my Elite and got a Pro. Whatever.
Just made eclairs from scratch. Pate a Choux puffs filled w/instant vanilla pudding and then dipped in chocolate. Yum. For party tomorrow.
Today, Best Buy and my Credit Card company were the bane of my existence.
Ok, I guess the eclairs are only half from scratch since I used instant vanilla pudding. At least the Pate a Choux is totally from scratch!
Damnit, Phillies. Win already, sheesh!
Had a really bad day today.
Also, I didn’t get any dinner and don’t feel well.

Sleepy.
Who watches the Watchmen? I do, and it was ok. Graphic novel was better, obviously, but not a bad movie just the same.
Pie.
Torrential rain has pummelled my vegetable garden. Hopefully nothing is too smashed.

Tried my homemade pickles tonight after the minimum 3 day uh, pickling. They taste like pickles! More time will make them taste even better!

I’m very frustrated. Why must these simple things be made exceeding complicated. Even worse, why can’t the simple task be completed?
I’m against censorship. I’m glad AT&T unblocked 4chan (I use dif ISP). I dont have to like the place to believe you have the right to visit.
With the recent news of AT&T temp banning 4chan at the ISP level it brings up the topic of censorship. Discuss. Me: against. #tech #geek
Achoo!
Well, the Phillies are losing, but at least I got my name on the scoreboard because its my birthday!
…Did you know that Superman in Spanish is “Superhombre”…?
And yes, I just signed up for Flickr. I know I’m years later than everyone else, but whatever.
I want to write a book.
I have a serious problem. When I planted my peppers I didn’t put the little nametags near each plant, now I’m not sure which one is which.
Bad Verizon, Bad! Srsly.
Wow, my blog actually is getting a bunch of Google hits. Weird. Even weirder, it’s for strange stuff I posted and it’s from Google Images.

Screw you, Red Ring of Death, screw you. Another Xbox down the toilet. Sigh…
McDonald’s hamburger from 1996 (looks pretty much like a new McD hamburger)..yuck. Glad I don’t eat those burgers http://bit.ly/r4CQa
Article: “How much CO2 does this article produce” from CNN. A single Google search releases 0.2g of CO2, good to know. http://bit.ly/RRFYB
Caught lightning bugs with my son tonight.
Saw a t-shirt that says “An apple a day still leaves you 2-4 servings short of your daily fruit recommendations.” haha. http://bit.ly/eU1iv
