Out and about in NYC again. Lately it seems that I have been out here a lot, for all sorts of random reasons. Right now we are waiting for our food in Hudson Place restaurant on 3rd and 36th St. Nice little place so far but as I said, no food yet so I can’t really give you anymore info on it.

Here is my new list of stuff I would like to get. I do this every year because my family has no idea what I want at all. This should make it simple but as usual its completely over priced. Here is my list:

My Super Expensive List of Stuff

Today me and mom are going on a fun adventure. Lucky for me, I am not the one getting cut. See, here is what is happening. My mom is getting a cyst removed from her hand. Lucky me, I get to drive her home with her all druged up.

So as you can tell, I have been quite the busy bee. I have not had the time to post in quite awhile. Currently, Biggs, Ialacci and I have been trying to get a small bidness running. (Ialacci calls Business Bidness for no real reason. I think it is more that he can not spell it.) Anyway, it’s been that, school, work, and just random other adventures in my life holding me back from posting on this site. So here is my almost month old update post.

Thursday, me and Ialacci went to check out a “Virtual Office” off Motor Pkwy and the east bound service road off the LIE. When we first walked into the building, I swear that we both almost, well, I think you get the idea. The whole place was completely new; it was only built like 4 months ago. If you look on google maps, its still under construction. But hey, most places close by are like that. If you look at Island 16 off Nicoles Rd and exit 62 off the LIE, half of the movie theater is under construction and the other half is done. That place has been there for quite a while now. Like a good 6 years or so. Well anyway, this place we found is completely amazing. It comes with everything we would ever need plus the whole building is completely biometric. I can go on for hours about the features and amazingness of the place but I have much more to talk about.

I am still using Windows 7, build 7057, on my laptop and boy, is it amazing. I have to admit, I hate Windows and this is the first Microsoft product that I actually like, a lot! It has a quality feel to everything it does and it runs much faster than Vista ever will. There are still a bunch of bugs that need to get worked out and driver support is still not up to par but what do you expect to a beta product. I think I will actually buy a license for this when it gets released.

I am again working on a new server. In the past 3 weeks, I actually already have rebuilt my server. Right now it has a E6600 Core 2 Duo with 8GB DDR1066. I thought it was complete overkill and using to much power for what it is doing. So I went Newegging. I bought a Jetway ITX socket AM2 board with a AMD Athlon x2 4050e 2.1GHz and 4GB DDR800 Ram. I figure that I will only be using about 60-70 watts average. I am mostly doing this to save space and make my mom happy with the power bill. I got all the parts except the board so I really can’t do anything about it right this second. The one thing I am doing is changing my Drobo from HFS+ to ext3 so I can use it on my server instead of having it on my iMac. I figure that it would be better since it will always be shared over the network and I don’t need to worry about my iMac having to be running. As an added bonus, I also bought 2 more 1.5TB drives for the Drobo for a total of 4.5TB. I mean I do actually need it. Right now I am currently using over a TB and I still have about 200GB more to move on to it. Ill give you updates on how that is going when I get to it.

My mom is selling the family camper. It is sort of sad to see it go. I did not really spend much time in it since we are always busy doing something. One person is doing that when this person is off and vice versa. My mom needs the money so I do understand it but it is still the point. My mom just a few days before said that she would like to take it to Massachusetts for a weekend or so. I am all up for it since I like driving around with the car and such but hey, its not my disission.

Also, I got my new sneakers for my Bora. I don’t know if I have already posted a picture of it on here yet but I might as well do that now. I have had them on it for a few months already.

Also, I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out why my blog page is unhappy near the bottom of the page. If you look, the background is all not right and the sheets overlap and underlap. If you can, it would be great.

Finally I get to post my my christmas loot. I got quite a few things but not much as I asked.

1. HAVA Platnium HD Box
2. BORA emblem
3. This BlackBerry
4. Some T-Shirts and Clothing
5. Some Gift Cards for random places
6. Hitatchi 500GB drive

That is all I can think of for now. Now I have to wait for my other new emblems for my Jetta/Bora and post pictures of it.

I was talking to Krass yesterday and it seems we have a new project for me involving two 2×26 LCD screens to plug into my router. The point for that is for displaying cpu, memory, in traffic and out traffic. It should be nice. Ill give you updates when I start the project.

For now I am off to my aunts house for a “Brunch”. Since when does that sound interesting? Atleast after I get to hang out with the normal crew. You know, Diana, Krass, and Biggs (call him biggles. It really pisses him off)

Later

It turned out to be quite a nice evening. Well not during the time I was over my aunts house, but more like an half hour before I left there. I drove my grandma home and we had a nice long talk like we usually do. My grandma and I are quite close, plus she knows more about accounting than I do. When I got home my dvd rip was complete. I was ripping the second season of “30 Rock” to .mkv files so I don’t need to use dvd’s or dvd images like I have. My cat was chillin with me all night and is now currently sleeping on my bed. That’s all I can think about for now. Back hurts and very tired.

I hate dogs. I am at my aunts house and she has a dog Max. That is one of the worst, most annoying dogs I have ever met. He is humping everyone here and really bothering me completely.

Now I have plenty of screaming kids that are giving me a huge migraine and still this dog.

What am I going to do. At least the food was amazing and I really really loved the corn muffin, even though Stop and Shop was the one to provide it. That’s all I have for now.

Today I was helping my friend Andrew out with returning his new XBox back to best buy, only because it came with the wrong DVD-ROM drive than can’t be flashed, and to get a new one. I was bored and needed to get out today so I said “Why not? Something to do that I am not choking on dust.” When at Best Buy, he ended up forgetting his receipt in his moms car. She said she is at Pathmark. The only one I knew about was the one on rt 27 (Sunrise Hwy) in Sun Vet Mall. Well here is the fun part. While I was pulling into the main entrance, right when I hit the stop sign, the car stalled for no real reason. I try to start it again and all it does is turn over and over. He gets out and pushes me into a spot. Nothing.

At first I thought it was my fuel pump so his mom drove me to my local Advanced Auto to talk with them to try to figure this all out. The guy said it must be my fuel pump that is doing that. Well after what just happened, it is definitely not the fuel pump. Later tonight, Biggs picked me up to try to figure out the problem. Some how while testing out the fuel pump and fuel check value, he got completely drenched in gas. He pulled the wrong line. In the end, it is still sitting in the parking lot all sad and it makes me sad. I hope tomorrow its all fixed and before 11:40 for school. If not I am forced to drive my grandpas Yankees machine around.

Wish me luck.

Super special. I was brushing my fat cat in the living room of my house while he is trying to attack the brush and my sister shows up looking at me saying,

“Can a disc disappear inside a Playstation 2?”

My replay was “Um… Why?”.

“Because I put my game in it last night and now it’s not there”.

Of course I am now very curious about what she did and I had to check it out. Sure enough there was no game inside the console and made a quick look around where it might have gone to. I take a look down and realize her DVD player was on. I press the eject key and what do you know, it was in the tray.
