Went out for lunch with the mother today. She misses me and wants to a. see me more often and b. touch base more often to know what I’m up to but I i. can’t motivate myself to drive to Penticton for Sunday dinner and ii. don’t have much of anything positive to report to [...]

Still no job, btw. I’ve been seeding resumes, talking to people etc. but so far, nothing has resulted. It rather much sucks but job hunting is often a waiting game more than anything else.

Spent my Sunday working in the office doing mundane, boring work. On the side, I threw the new hard drive into Laura’s laptop and formatted it to get it all up and running. Formatting, installing the OS, running a million XP updates and installing everything is mostly just a lot of waiting around anyway, so [...]

I picked up Super Mario Galaxy this afternoon and after having sit down with it for a few hours, I can say it is most excellent. Very pretty and all kinds of fun. Now, I never played Super Mario 64, well, not all the way through. I did a bit of it on a friend’s [...]

The replacement hard drive I bought for Laura’s laptop finally arrived today, nearly two weeks after I bought it. Anyway, Laura has today and tomorrow off work so I can’t secretly do anything with it until Sunday.

I finally finished BioShock tonight. As much as I was looking forward to the game coming out, moving across the country and having a pretty terrible PC setup once I arrived really made it difficult to sit down and play very often. I was apparently right near the end of the game for the past [...]

I think I’m finally on the mend. It started out with two days of fever and chills, then one day where it looked like it was turning into a simple cold. The next day, I lost my voice and immediately regretted my prior optimism. A day later I could speak but sounded like a drag [...]

I’ve been playing Hotel Dusk: Room 215 over the past week or so and finally finished it tonight.

It’s definitely a pretty cool game. The graphics are different but I liked ‘em. I was really just playing through it to find out what happens in the story. I’m not especially good at knowing what to do [...]

Kris, Matt Rigby and I caught Matthew Good in concert tonight.
Natasha Alexandra was the opening act and she was pretty good. She seemed to interact with the crowd pretty well and the three of us liked her sound.
I wasn’t sure what to expect from the M. Good portion of the concert because it was just [...]

T’was Geoff’s birthday today and Louise made an excellent 4-layer cake:

Chocolate with chocolate chips throughout and chocolate icing. It’s quite possibly the most chocolatey thing I’ve ever eaten. It’s so sugary, you can only have a tiny slice at a time but it’s delicious!
