Last weekend I went down to DeForest with Liz for the American Cancer Society Relay for Life. That was fun. We were only there for a few hours though … spent the rest of the weekend visiting with her parents and playing with their new puppy dog. I think I also acquired a nasty cold from Liz’s brother John.
Monday night I went to see Metallica at Xcel Energy Center with my brother. It was apparently his first concert. Amazingly enough, he almost dozed off during it. I have no idea how tho … it was *loud*. Not as loud as the first concert of theirs I went to because I was farther away this time, but it was still loud.
Tuesday night Liz and I and some of Liz’s friends went to see “The Village” in downtown RF. I am not a big fan of suspense films, but this one is a must see. It’s a very well-done film that I recommend to anyone. If you don’t like scary movies, feel free to wait until it comes out on DVD so you can pause the scary parts or hug your teddy bear. I don’t think they should be skipped though… they add something to the movie of course.
Yesterday President Bush came through RF. I was kinda hoping he would go through while I was in the rest room so that if someone asked me what I was doing when he went by, I could say I was taking a sh*t… but alas I was just working on installing a computer. Probably a good thing I wasn’t outside … I may have made an obscene gesture towards him.
On the computer front, I tweaked my MythTV setup again so that the database and webpages are served from the MythTV box again rather than my regular server. I also added a Firewire card to my server tonight so that I can get a portable FW hard drive to back up to.
Well … ttfn … I think I need to crash soon. My head feels icky stuffy.
