Sick Update

by @ Friday, August 29th, 2003. Filed under Personal

Manged to get some napping in this afternoon. Still feel pretty rotten. Off Advil my temp was up to 99.6. It’s back down to 99.1 at the moment now that the Advil is back in my system. I fear it will be a long weekend. I did pick up Tron 2.0 while we were out [...]

Sick

by @ Friday, August 29th, 2003. Filed under Family, Personal

So I’m sick today. I’d swear I had the flu if I had more that 1/2 a degree to a degree of fever. I’m taking the day off from work to try and get well. I did manage the energy for a quick trip to Xander’s school to meet his teacher and find out which [...]

More Tron 2.0

by @ Thursday, August 28th, 2003. Filed under Games, PC

Tycho seems to think highly of Tron 2.0 as well. I really need to get this game.

Tron 2.0 Review

by @ Wednesday, August 27th, 2003. Filed under Games, PC, Sci-Fi/Fantasy

GameSpy has a review up for Tron 2.0. I was very worried about this game when the first demo game out. It, in a word, sucked. The second demo (the single player one), made me feel much better though. The review has mostly good things to say about it. I’ll be picking this one up.

Matrix Pong

by @ Tuesday, August 26th, 2003. Filed under Funny

Matrix Pong is what I’ve called this. I don’t know what the official title is, but it’s one of the neatest things I’ve seen in a while.

Press Release

I offer the following without comment.

Home at Last

by @ Monday, August 25th, 2003. Filed under Family, Vacation

Well, we finally made it back home. It was a long trip, but it was worth it. Everything is in from the car, it’ll take a bit to actually unpack though. Xander and Mira were both wonderful for the drive. I don’t know how we lucked into such wonderful children. Anyway, we’re home again. Now [...]

Another Exciting Day

by @ Sunday, August 24th, 2003. Filed under Family, Vacation

Another big day for us today. Xander was feeling much better today (though his face is still a little puffy). We went to go see Nanaw and Pa this afternoon, which went very well. Nanaw was in pretty good shape today and even called Xander by name a few times. Then it was off to [...]

Xander’s Alergies

by @ Saturday, August 23rd, 2003. Filed under Family

Xander had a serious allergic reaction to something tonight. We don’t know what it was, but it was pretty major. His face swelled up pretty badly. His left eye looked like he’d been punched. We gave him some benedryl and it seemed to help some. He feel asleep on me watching the race. Hopefully he’ll [...]

Back in Clinton

by @ Saturday, August 23rd, 2003. Filed under Family, Vacation

We’re back in Clinton again today. We had a wonderful time at the beach. Joey, Cheryl and their kids made it out to the beach on Thursday night to visit with us. Cheryl and most of the kids made it back out again Friday. Xander had a great time playing with them. Xander also had [...]

A Night for Ourselves

by @ Thursday, August 21st, 2003. Filed under Food, Personal, Vacation

Kate and I got to go out for dinner by ourselves tonight. We went to a nice little place in Topsail Beach called Lattitude 34. It was a very yummy meal. For appetizers we had some seared rare tuna and some calamari. For our entrees we both had their Atlantic Salmon. It was cooked in [...]

On the Road Again

by @ Wednesday, August 20th, 2003. Filed under Family, Vacation

Well, we made it to Clinton today. We decided all of a sudden (i.e. Sunday) to go on vacation. We decided to go next week. Then we found out my dad was going to be out of town all next week, so worked things out at work so that we could leave this week. Kate [...]

Yummy Lunch

by @ Tuesday, August 19th, 2003. Filed under Food, Personal

Kate and I had lunch today at The Buffalo Wing Factory. It was a near religious experience. It just so happens that the Tuesday special is a 25 wing sampler, 5 of 5 different styles. We had Spicy Crab Hot (that’s a 2 on their 6 point scale) Caribbean New Orleans Teriyaki That’s in the [...]

Blackouts All Around

by @ Saturday, August 16th, 2003. Filed under News

NOAA has some pictures up of the Northeast US before and after the blackout that occured on Thursday. In other blackout news, we had ourselves a minor one today. The lights were out from aroud 2:30pm to around 4:00pm. Dominion Power has a cool system though. You call them and give the computer your phone [...]

Underworld

by @ Friday, August 15th, 2003. Filed under Movies, Sci-Fi/Fantasy

I’m pretty excited about Underworld. It’s based on the White Wolf World of Darkness. It’s about the war between the vampires and the werewolves, and it looks great.
