Pegs
Thursday. 12.28.06 4:09 am
On my google homepage, there is a game called pegs. You remove one peg, then spend time jumping other pegs to get all but one remaining. I've been doing that game at Cracker Barrel for some time now, but only getting down to 2. I played tonight, and on my first try, I got it! I was stupid enough not to take a picture, so I spent the next 1/2 hour trying to do it again.

Edit: I got bored and tried it again right after I published this entry. I got it immediately without having to go back. I think the secret is to try to get rid of the outer layer of pegs, then work inwards. That isn't the strategy I used the first time, but I can't remember what I did then :(

X-mas
Tuesday. 12.26.06 7:56 pm
X-mas is over, seeing my family was interesting. My sister kinda blurted out that my girlfriend is black. There was kinda an awkward silence, then some mublings, nothing major. Later on I told my family that I converted to Episcopalian instead of Roman Catholic. My grandmother started screaming "OMG?! Why are you doing that, what is wrong with RC, etc blah blah blah". That was fun. That was xmas eve, xmas I realized how much of a biggot my grandmom really is. Some of the family were watching the football game, and a female reporter started talking. My GM started saying that a women doesn't know anything about football and has no right talking about it. I couldn't think of anything good to say, so I kinda just nodded and ignored her.

Whenever I'm away, something breaks in the house. The TV in the family room was having problems tuning, but instead of checking the cable line, my dad would just hit the TV. It has been taking him more and more hitting to get the TV working. This morning, after hitting it for about 20 minutes, he declared the TV dead. We went to The Great Evil to get a new one, found one we liked and had the clerk get one from the back. We went to the check out, and the TV came up as $350 instead of the $280 it should have been. I run to get the price tag and the cashier adjusted the price. After we come home to set up the TV, I realize that this wasn't the TV we picked out. Instead of getting a normal 4:3 TV, we get a widescreen flat tube TV. Not too shabby.

Back home.
Thursday. 12.21.06 2:19 am
I'm back home. The drive was ok, nothing major. I'm glad I got to spend a few exta days with Jess, but I do miss her already.

My sleep pattern is still messed up, but I'll get used to it. Today I went to the diner with Eric and Tom, and then went to Eric's house. Cool thing is Tom has a WRX, and he let me drive. I ended up stalling it at a stop sign, but no one expected me to get it moving at all. Even funnier thing was Eric used to talk about how he used to drive his cousin's car all the time and how good he was an manuals. Apparently he stalled Tom's car 5 times in one night. Now I want an evo....

I like leaving things untitled.

Finals are over, w00t.

So, in celebration of the end of the semester, Jess and I decided to go to Danny's Pawn shop. I haven't been to a pawn shop in a while, and thought it would be entertaining. We got there, and everything was uber expensive. $80 for a used gamecube, $800 for a pentium 3 system, $120 for a cheap-o keyboard. We were very disapointed.

Everybody's Free
Tuesday. 12.12.06 5:57 pm
I just came back from my signals and systems final. My butt is now bleeding. It was from a combination of seeing something I've never seen before (equation for measuring the sharpness of a curve?) and some of my own dumb ass mistakes (there is still a T in there after intergration, why?!?!?!?! oh wait, i forgot to evaluate at the limits....). All I want in that class is a damn C-.

I've been looking for the video clip from the beginning of Venture Brothers, season 2, and found this video. I don't know what half of that stuff was from, but I saw some resident evil and evangelion.

Found the video I was looking for.

Stories, or lack there of
Sunday. 12.10.06 3:56 pm
I have realized that I really don't have many stories to tell. When I was little, I never kept a diary, the only things I wrote down were "I hate this" or "blah sucks". That has pretty much continued with my blogs. I pretty much just write down what I am feeling and why, what I have been up to, or just random thoughts.

What I have been up to:
My sleeping patterns have been set off balance as of late, due mostly to trying to get projects finished before deadlines. Because of this, I have been waking up at odd hours. A few days ago, I woke up at 9am on my own volition, and became incredibly bored. The previous day, I purchased new windshield wipers and finally had the time to put them on. After they were installed, I got the urge to clean all of my car windows.

I haven't given my car a thorough cleaning in well over a year, so the windows were quite dirty, inside and out. After about 30 minutes with Windex and paper towels they were all squeaky clean. Unfortunately I didn't get to drive the car anywhere for a while. When I finally did, I was in awe at how well I could see out of them. I finally realized what HD TV would look like.

In typing this entry, I realize how sad it is that I get excited over being able to see though windows.
