I guess the holidays have officially arrived, and with it my annual bout of foul temperament.\u00a0 Blech.<\/p>\n
Let’s see now;\u00a0 I guess I spent a rather unusual amount of time at the Brooksider this weekend.\u00a0 Mostly out of sheer boredom I think.\u00a0 I headed there Friday after work for a little happy hour, just to get the weekend started.\u00a0 Donette, meanwhile, was up in the northlands visiting her Dad, who unfortunately is stuck in the hospital to start the holidays.\u00a0 He had an unplanned surgery last Wednesday\u00a0 (as a follow-up to semi-planned surgery a week ago.)\u00a0 He’s recovering well, but it doesn’t look like he will be home in time for turkey-day at this point.\u00a0 Anyway, she spent the night up there so I stayed home and played Wii games with Gabe.\u00a0 I like playing him best because I can absolutely thrash him on almost every game.\u00a0 (Poor lil’ guy can’t work the controller very well without thumbs.)<\/p>\n
Saturday I spent the greater part of the day on the couch.\u00a0 I finished tweaking my super-duper Windows 7 install;\u00a0 I think I’m finally ready to call it “done.”\u00a0 My backups aren’t running correctly, but I’ll just kick them off manually for the time being.\u00a0 After that, I took Gabe for a nice long walk and then went down to the Brooksider to watch the MU game.\u00a0 Alas, it was not to be found on any of their 5 bajillion channels!\u00a0 Geez, what a drag.\u00a0 They had it on the radio though, for what that was worth.\u00a0 I killed a few hours down there and then called it a day;\u00a0 Headed back home to the couch and reveled in the KU thrashing.<\/p>\n
