So I figured I check in. I’m going to Vegas. First time in many many years. I was maybe just 22 when I went with my girl last time. That was so long ago. Now I’m heading out there with a few of my friends. The only plan we have it Sunday, where we plan on spending most of the day betting on football. Other then that I assume a lot of walking, a lot of drinking and a little bit of gambling.
The Holidays are upon us. I did nothing for Thanksgiving. I spent the day home and cooked for myself. Turns out a small turkey is easier to cook then a big one. Everything turned out good, even the stuffing which I just made up as I went. I’ve never made dressing before and I chose not to follow a recipe.
My technical life is falling apart. I have a vary old and out of date desktop that can hardly play streamed movies with out skipping. My PS3 has just lost it’s one and only controller after I tossed it against the wall because it wasn’t working as it should, not because it lost me the game. My laptop is also starting to die. It’s been on it’s way out for a while now. It over heats and shuts down, and the track pad touches things on it’s own. It’s been a good computer, more so since it was free.
So soon I will have to spend money on my tech. The last thing on the list is my desktop, but I miss computer games. I’ve tried to play Portal 2 and Crisis 2 on my desktop and it stutters and crashes. Yet the lappy is the more important thing to replace. I use it daily, but I need to dicide if I want to keep with the 17in screen or go down a size. I love the real estate. I’m afraid I’d miss it, but a smaller screen would make the thing more portable.
