Last friday, a show at the annex….
Soil, My Ruin and The Blank Theory. Soil and blank theory were okay, but My Ruin really stole the show. 3 females and a dude in the band, and that’s not why they were cool. They just had a great energy, and plain out rocked and won a bunch of new fans over.
My digital camera broke a week or so ago. After searching on the internet about it, I found that it’s a pretty common problem. The lens would not go back into the camera and then it would stop with an error of “E18″ It’s still under warrany and I Airborned it to their repair center near Chicago. I shipped it 2 day air last tuesday. I received a letter yesterday stating that it was received and it’d be about 10 days for it to get repaired. Today, I got home, and it was here. All done! They put in a new lens and it works fine! The best part though, was the fedex label had something written from the driver. “Cool cat in the window” Torrie likes to sit there.
So, at work we got a new computer that can actually, like digityze video. So we can like, um, bring video clips on laptop to clients, burn them to DVD, etc. We’re in the 90’s now! But it’s cool to have some new stuff to learn and “play” with. The next issue is to let people that would actually bring it out on the road to know what we can and can’t do. So I’m working on a PowerPoint presentation to show what’s up. I just started today, and while i’m the computer guy at work and fix problems here and there in PowerPoint, i’ve never started my own presentation and figured out how to do everything. So it’s a neat, fun thing from both sides, I can actually use the software, and show off a little bit.
NHL Hockey season is almost done. I’m still in 2nd place in my fantasy hockey league on sportingnews.com, but on yahoo, 2nd from last! It’s still kind of fun, but I’ve never really been able to grasp the draft based (yahoo) fantasy hockey game. Oh well!
I have Tim this weekend. Not sure what’s going on, but I think we might re-arrange the living room here to make room for the piano that my mom doesn’t want anymore! I think I’ll learn the real chopsticks song. I knew it once, but I should try again? sure, why not? hah
