I could tell it was going to be snowy this morning by the sound of shovels and the way the light was coming in the window.

New Digital Hotness

I got this on Monday night. It is really cool. It is supposed to be more rugged than normal phones, which is good for me. Hopefully, it will be better than my old one, which was a really good phone as well. The only thing that really went wrong with the old one was the finish rubbing off of it. Also, the battery was going out and call quality was not that great anymore.

Start Me Up!

Had to replace my starter last night. Five hundred buck$. Fortunately, it was the first time in over 100,000 miles that I have been left stranded anywhere. It was also good that I was fairly close to home when it happened.

I have started riding my bike to work. Gas is getting to be too expensive. It is also great exercise, but it kind of sucks now that it is getting hotter out.

oh, for fuck's sake!

i paid $3.629 a gallon for gasoline today. i paid over $50 for a tank of gas, and that was with a gas coupon. this sucks.

Idiots Out Walking Around

Had a fun trip to Iowa over the weekend. It sucked. Hard. I don't ever want to go back. We were there for a wedding. It was terrible. Not fun.

Yippie-ki-yay, motherfu....oh right... We dyed easter eggs on Saturday. Mine sucked. It's a good thing this picture is as crappy as it is, because my eggs look even worse in higher resolution.

It is springtime. Oh God do i miss firing up the fucking grill. It has been over a year since my Weber has seen any charcoal action. I really need to change that. Hopefully, the next place I move into has somewhere for the grill.

The Mavericks beat St Cloud this weekend. We were down 3-0 midway through the third period and came back to win friday. I did not get to see Saturday's game though, but we won that one too.

Work still sucks

I don't want to go to work anymore. I want to make money while doing nothing, or at least find something that is fun.

Holy Frickin Cold!

It is really cold this morning. It is so cold that my truck didn't want to start, the transmission was very stiff, hell even the seat foam was so cold it was stiff. It felt like there was no padding. This cold weather is really starting to wear on my truck. It is starting to shake at certain speeds and run louder and rougher. I want it to get warmer out to see if it improves. I would park it in the garage to let it warm up, but the air in there is so bad that it would probably run worse after that.

That is what the guy in the row in front of us said to one of his buddies at the Swarm game tonight. The Swarm won 11-4 over Toronto. It was a fun game, but there were no fights.

We went cross-country skiing yesterday. It was a lot of fun, even if we both fell down a lot. It was a really good workout too, and we are both sore today. We are going to have to try it again for sure.
