Gone Again

Well, this weekend was slightly different from the rest. We didn't really do much of anything on Friday night, and then we spent about 6 or so odd hours at Mel and Doug's place saturday night. The girls scrapbooked and I played some Ninja Gaiden for the XBox. It was a good game, though its only on XBox, so I don't know if I will ever be able to really play it again.

Sunday we did laundry, ran some errands, resigned our lease, etc. Nothing really special happened. I started playing FF5 because Amanda is going to be gone all week. This is a final fantasy game I have had for awhile, but never really started. Now, since I am going to have this whole week, and maybe the next one to my self (not the weekends though), I wanted to get into a time consuming game to help pass the time.

Oh well. Its nice to have time to yourself every once and a while, but I do wish she wasn't gone so long.

Star Date... September 22nd... point 2

Yesterday was a pretty good day. I finished up some cards for work that were going out for Halloween. It took awhile but we were able to get it done.

I took care of Leslies cats since she is out of town and did some laundry. Then I went home and just relaxed since Amanda is still in Shanoot (spell?). She gets back on friday. So I vacuumed, did the dishes, folded laundry, then made dinner. After which I did no real work. It was nice, all I did was just lay around and occasionally play with the dog since he was a little attention starved. Though, he always seems to be when you look at him.

I watched a lot of Mythbusters, which if you haven't seen, you should. Its a very entertaining show about urban myths. Something usually blows up or at least catches on fire.

The Big C

Leslie (Amanda's mom) noticed a weird growth on Amanda's grandmother's (Nana) arm. She got a biopsy, and yesterday she got a letter from the doctor saying they wanted to see her to talk about it. Amanda told me that she (Nana) had cancer. I was able to cheer her up and make her forget about it for the most part, however, before I wrote this blog she called me and told me that it isn't cancer. So that is very good news.

As much as I love her, Amanda (who reads this) has a tendancy to see only things in a negative way and jump to conclusions, thus depressing herself.

all in all

Well, its been a good weekend. Amanda and I didn't do much, but we did go to the Renassance Festival which was nice. We Say Bob the Incredible Juggler who is always good. Most of the weekend we just sat around and took it easy.

WE did do a LOT of cleaning and purging this sunday. We gave more clothes and shoes to the hurricane clothing drives, which will work out good for all of us. Not a whole lot new with me. I photoshopped a ex family member of the Fisch family out of an old family photo. It turned out very well. Everyone was surprized; which surprized me, ironically...

I beat Super Metroid with a finish time of 3:02... which is 3 minutes too long to see the "best ending," so I am playing it again to get it. As if you care...

F YEAH!

Well, after a couple more rough patches with my new computer, I finally got everything back to the way it used to be (for the most part). Though, the "F YEAH" is not for the computer. This past tuesday was my 1 year anniversary at work. I had a good yearly review; apparently they really like me, and I got a 9% raise. So I am very happy about that.

I went out and bought Super Metroid as a reward/present for myself. Been playing that a bit, and I remember just how much I love it.

The classics ROCK!
