I am tired of being cold. This Stupid weather is Adams fault. If he had not taken a bite of that stupid apple we would be living in paradise right now. Eve was deceived Adam knew what he was doing and did it anyway. It could have even been fixed if he had accepted the blame when God asked him about it rather them blaming eve.
I can't sleep so I am on my computer. My motorcycle part came. I am going to take my bike over to my in-laws house on saturday. father-in-law will hopefully help me replace the part. It is the front brake master cylinder.
I just got the tracking information for my motorcycle part. It shipped out today. Hopefully it doesn't take long to get here. I will be watching it the whole way. It is comming from delaware by via us mail. I don't know how well they update tracking information. I am really looking forward to it getting here.
I was just thinking about the miniseries. Something has been bothering me about it for quite some time. When I was in highschool I read a book that I am pretty sure the miniseries was based on. It was not the original wizard of oz books. It was a spin off set very much in the future of oz. I wish I could remember what the book was called and who it was by. Usually movies like that spark more then the memory of a books existance. I have had several books recalled to memory and the movie ususally has the same name as the book. I did a search for the book and it doesn't show up.
I am going to get to use a computer again. I am going to start running the projector at church on occasion. I am going to be the relief for the lady who is currently doing that job. The pastor flagged me down as I was entering the church this morning and asked me. I will start training soon.
I am going to call The Olympian on Monday. I need to have some sort of job and nothing is turning up. I know that I can get a paper route easily. It is not forever. School will probably get pushed off for a quarter while I get my finances in order. I can’t find the paperwork that I will need to get financial aid.
I have a brake cylender comming for my motorcycle. I am looking forward to it comming so that hopefully I can fix the brakes. If that happens I probably will take it out in just about any weather. I probably won't ride in snow or extreme wind.
I have been accumulating Christmas gifts. So far I have a coffee mug with a fish on it for my brother, a boxed set with all of the lemmony snickett books for one niece and the book Cloudy with a chance of meatballs for the other. I bought a cast iron Wok for Dale. He collects cast Iron. There are way too many more gifts that we need to get. This is a start though.
I removed my data from the acer laptop which I gave to my Niece. I am going to be using my netbook as my portable computer untill atleast april. I am planning on going back to school in january and trying to finish my degree. Hopefully I do better then I did last time. Of course that is dependent on me qualifying for finacial aid. One thing which will help is technology wise I am much better equiped then I was last time. I have flash drives to carry files and my netbook for doing homework on along with a pretty fast desktop computer.
I will be going to the college here in town rather then the one in olympia. I can walk to it if I have to.
I am tired and my head hurts. My wife is a wonderful cook. She spent the evening making rolls and stuffing for dinner tommorrow. We are having thanksgiving early because my mom is taking my neice to visit her other set of grandparents. They will be gone over thanksgiving.
I stopped in at Olympic College Shelton today. I picked up some information and made an appointment to see an advisor. I had been thinking about going back to school for a while. My mom suggested it this morning and I took it as confirmation that I should. Maybe it will get a little easier to find a job if I have a degree of some sort. Computer Science most likely. I might try to go beyond that a little though.
This is a MP3 tag editor. I transfered the songs that I had ripped on my Ubuntu Linux Box to my MP3 Player and found that most of them were not showing up right. I only had to open them up in the editor and they were fixed. I think that the ripper mangled the tags a little. The data was there but not readable untill I opened the files in the editor.
My computer desk is accessable again. My wonderful wife helped me get to it tuesday night. We took out several bags of garbage and Junked my arm chair. The arm chair was well loved by the cats and had become a clutter catcher.
Yesterday I Nuked the Windows 7 Beta install that I had on my desktop computer and installed OpenSuse. I also replaced the ethernet cable. It had ceased to work due to a combination of being walked on and getting wet when I defrosted the freezer a while back. being walked on had seperated the cover and let water in so the wires coroded.
I also replaced my MP3 player which has gone on holiday. I bought the cheapest one Walmart sells. I think once I get another job I will have to go and get a more expensive one. The one I bought will work for now but I would really like one with more features. Things like video and a rechargable battery. The one I bought is only music and uses a AAA battery. It is branded RCA but probably made by someone else. It shows up on Linux as an audiovox. I am on my third MP3 player and they have all been branded RCA. That is a total accident. I think I will hold out for a sony next time.
I have to leave in a few minutes to go and get my brother and his wife from the airport. They spent ten days in germany. I wish I could go back there. I have not been on a plane in close to eighteen years. That was when we came back to the states in december of 1991. I miss germany it was a great place to live.
I gave my niece my full size laptop. I will be using my acer aspire one exclusively untill april at least. I am planning on purchasing another one when we get our income tax back.
