>Dream Selling Me Quarters

>I fell asleep last night on the couch with the TV on. I had quite an interesting dream too: I have forgotten the details, but throughout the dream this guy kept trying to sell me quarters. I’d be walking around talking to people in an unrelated dream… then this guy would pop in and talk about his quarters… you could buy them, for only 25 cents each! If you got enough of them, you could get a gold one included FREE! “How do we do this??! VOLUME!” I’d say “No — I don’t want to buy any quarters…” move on……

>I had to work on Tuesday, but nothing much after that. I hung around the house and played Need For Speed: Underground incessantly. I unlocked everything up to level 3 — and godDAMN it’s fast. It’s all city courses, traffic, shortcuts… amazing… buy it, buy it! Thanksgiving was nice — headed up to VT early. It took me about 2 hours to do the 3 & 1/2 hour drive. I found my aunt’s house after a bit of driving around, but for the most part without issue. My Mom had come up with her “companion” I think this might have…

>Wow… what an interesting day. I spent all day thinking about what happened yesterday: I hung out all day, was aching for Need For Speed: Underground. I wasn’t about to pay $50 for it, however. I still had a few of my worst (all that was left) XBox games. I decided I’d go to Funco Land. I thought about it for a moment, a tad hesitant because last time I went I saw a past friend: Andy Stevens. I had a falling out with my group of friends in Ware about 2 years ago, shortly after moving out to Springfield.…

>Here’s a fun little iPod parody for your viewing pleasure, and the picture that’s been slowing TheSmokingGun to a crawl. (not really for viewing pleasure, per se)

>Why don’t we have cool games like this? I’ll tell you why… Americans only crave blood, gore, and death! I’m just amazed it got an 8/10 given the quality of the graphics. It’s sheer scale is one thing, but there’s some bad clipping issues, in addition to characters with very limited polygons.

>I’ve just sucked 2 minutes of your life away… I hope to one day go as high as five, but there’s no telling what that might do to you.

>Well — I’ve been a busy little bee this evening. I spent the first half doing work, then figured I’d work on my own site since it was still early. I added new rocks to Katerocks.com, they’ve got detail photos and they’re both shopping cart ready. So adopt a little one, think Xmas! I had to do something about the skewed and skewered bubbles — no filters on this machine, so had to make do with what I’ve got… *cough* need photoshop filters for Mac *cough* please… *cough* but was able to do pretty close to what I had pictured…

>Everything you never thought to ask about something that most never see.* Finally! Here’s an adage for the kiddies — save it when they ask you “why?”.

>I went to court today to fight a speeding ticket. My argument was that I was going 57 in a 55, or what I thought to be a 55mph area due to the lack of signage. He reduced it, but since the officer marked it as a “marked” area on the ticket/report, they weren’t just going to give it to me. I then appealed for a $20 fee, and shall return on the 16th of Dec. Possibly he may not show up, but in case he does I took pictures when I got out and had them developed. I took…

>Tonight was Paul’s party: Computers, projection screen with movies XBoxen, SNES, Sega Genesis on 6 TVs Good pumping industrial, black lights, and glow items of many a kind. It was a very fun time, no drinking — but that didn’t stop everyone from partying down =] I was there right till the end, about 12:30 or so… I called Stefan to see what he was up to — sure enough: party! The usual bunch was there, with a special appearance by a band from WNEC. With sort of a Funky sound, they had 2 guys on keyboards, and their own…

>”I’m a roofer… I roof! Do you see me roofing? I roof! I’m a roofer!” So maybe I’m not, but I did it and I’m glad. I helped my Dad and learned a little. I also got a whole bunch of nostalgic stuff from the basement. A skateboard, banana, 70’s style, blue with rollerskate wheels. My dinosaur, have to give that to my kid someday. A copper turtle covered in coral from my fish tank. My Mustang RC Car. Brio train set, Fisher Price Schoolhouse and Barn (also for the kid). A card from the second time I got out…

>…pictures – check. happy new thing — not quite new section — note quite … new music recommendations – check. Well 50/50 ain’t all that bad. It only took me 4 hours to ingest all the alcohol.

>I’m feeling very pensive this evening, and managed to sit down at my computer. That can only mean one thing — updates, and with any luck… some new content! (pictures) (a new section) (a happy giggly thing) (music recommendations)

>Lessons: Hospital Moving Out Into Bad Areas Caution in the City Accident look for these little tidbits, possibly in their own section in the future
