2:32 pm	Florida, here I come So my vacation starts Friday May 28th at 5pm. Saturday I go to Whidbey Island with my wife and parents to see some old family friends. We come back Monday and then take off Tuesday afternoon to Florida to find a home. That's right.. a HOME! I'm moving to Florida! I will be attending Full Sail, school for the recording arts, for 21 months and come out with a degree in Entertainment Business (and Associates in recording arts). I can't wait! We move July 6th (or so) and will do the whole cross country drive thing, stopping in Denver to spend time with Kristin and in Dallas with Reid. It should be fun! We'll be back from vacation on June 8th. It's gonna be a good time. (4 Comments |Comment on this)

3:22 pm	Night of the Dawn of the Dead I saw Dawn of the Dead last night... it was awesome! You can't compare it to the original cause they are totally different. I went with Baker but he had to leave due to an outage. :( He came back to get me and we went to BK and yacked it up for a bit. I had a good time :) (1 Comment |Comment on this)

11:33 am	I Love Jak! I spent about 4 hours playing Jak and Daxter last night... that game is so awesome! It's difficult, but fun. To me, it's very creative. (Comment on this)

8:46 am	The Morning After... The gig went really well last night, thanks for asking. :) I ripped it up on Me And Bobby McGee. :) I had a couple of blunders where the piano stopped working and then came back really really loud. I think the people enjoyed it but there weren't dancing and we cleared the room by 10:30. We were supposed to play til 11pm. Oh well. (Comment on this)

2:44 pm	Gig I have a gig tonight. First time with this particular band. They don't really have a name they use all the time but thanks to a random generator, we might be called "Divided Panic and the Flashy Wig" LOL (Comment on this)

9:24 am	Might As Well Face Your Addicted To [insert here] So my wife asked me last night if I was addicted to Playstation yet after playing another 3.5 hours of Jak and Daxter. Yet?! I was the moment it came into my posession. :) (Comment on this)

1:47 pm	It's A Monday How was everyone's weekend? Mine was fairly busy. I did wind up getting a used copy of Two Towers for PS2... made me happy. :) Yesterday, Emily and I moved the living room furniture around. It sure makes the room different! I'm not quite used to it however, my surround sound speakers are not in optimal position anymore. We moved things around so our heating vents would work more efficiently. However... we need heat!

8:29 am	Finally! Last night at exactly 11pm, I finished "Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb" for PC. I had been waiting to open and use my new PS2 until I finished that game. So now I can crack it open at lunch! Yay! (Comment on this)

4:10 pm	I Hate When My Wife Kicks Me In The Balls So I was playing around with Em yesterday and we were in our bedroom. And I grabbed her as if we were dancing.... and we danced over to our bed where I pushed her down on it. However, both of her legs were between mine and when she hit the bed her legs went up, connecting with my nads, dropping me to my knees. So much for being playful! (1 Comment |Comment on this)
8:03 am	"What Ze Hell?" I saw Matrix: Revolutions last night. I just don't even know what to say... I'm so confused now. I think they took a good franchise and killed it with the direction they took in Reloaded and Revolutions. Of course you can't kill the Matrix... you need something to base videogames, cartoons, and books and comics on. BTW, I think I liked Reloaded better... much more action and "holy shit!" moments. I guess this one evoked the same response but not in a good way. (1 Comment |Comment on this)
