I got a postcard from Karen at Oxford!
As a side note, it’s kind of funny to hear Ryan kicking himself for buying a Sony laptop. In his defence, eight months ago we all would have laughed at the idea of iBooks running Intel dual core processors and running Windows XP. Who knew?

Honestly, I’ve got nothing to say. I played more Max Payne 2 today and here’s a picture:
And now I’m done.

I started into a new game of Max Payne 2 tonight. Hadn’t played it in a while and it’s such a great game. Since it’s like two years old (guessing), I can max out all the graphic settings (4xFSAA, anisotropic filtering, the works) and it’s quite beautiful. Runs smooth as hell… but still isn’t Half-Life [...]

I was back helping out in school instead of patio today. They seemed really appreciative. It was a good day, I like working with Marvin. Lots of talking in the morning, the weather was beautiful and I wasted most of my afternoon doing WHMIS training online, which was easy. I was kind of upset that [...]

It’s Easter! And I have lots of candy. Lots. My mom sent me a package of candy and Laura’s parents gave me a basket of candy, too. Oh, and Laura’s grandmother gave me a solid chocolate bunny.
Laura surprised me by making a breakfast of fruit smoothies, berries and Eggos. It was scrumptious. All breakfasts should [...]

Went out shopping for clothes with Laura and ended up grabbing a bunch of previously viewed movies: ‘Ham & Cheese,’ ‘Dark Water,’ ‘The Exorcism of Emily Rose’ and ‘War of the Worlds.’ The first three are movies I haven’t seen but was planning on renting. However, for $1-$3 more, I could buy them so… why [...]

Stephen was in town tonight so we went out and saw ‘Thank You for Smoking’ Laura, Ryan, Shawn and Melissa.
I had expected it to be funny and it really didn’t disappoint. I don’t want to blow up anyone’s expectations, but it’s a damn good comedy, worthy of your money. I’ll definitely be buying it when [...]

Ryan and I bought hard drives today. My original plan was to buy a lesser drive so I could afford an external enclosure for my old drive but even though I ordered the drive a week ago, they still hadn’t gotten it in from their warehouse in Mississauga (where they’ve had it all along). So [...]

Short work week this week. I’m taking Thursday off as a holiday and Friday is Good Friday, so today was my Friday. I spent most of the earlier part of this week getting my computer ready for my upcoming format, which mostly meant rearranging of data and merging partitions. Seems everything’s pretty much all set [...]

A few weeks back, Laura and I went to a dollar store. We bought a number of fun things, including laser pointers and a pack of Nintendo-themed candy: “Nintendo Surprise.”
I finally got around to opening the package and, not surprisingly, it’s all kind of trashy. Looks like it was manufactured in 2002 so the fact [...]
