That could have been me

Posted by: orboy on: November 8, 2007

Sometimes you read a story and think about how you would have been able to do the same in that situation. This is one of those stories.
Then reality kicks in and you wonder, “Who are you kidding?” If I was in that situation I would have either died or been expecting a little deer-boy [...]

Oh DVD/VHS combo, how I loved you so!

Posted by: orboy on: November 7, 2007

But alas, you are dying. Last night as Girl and I were watching Season 2 of How I met your mother on you, you started to skip. At first I was a little peeved because I thought it was the disk. But then you started to skip on our fall-back show, Alias. [...]

Feels like Friday

Posted by: orboy on: November 7, 2007

I hate to say it, but I’m getting ready to go home from work for the evening and I’m totally feeling the Friday vibe.  While that’s a good vibe, the sad part is, it’s not Friday.  And that means tomorrow, and the next day… and every day up until Friday is gonna kind of suck [...]

Where did THAT pain come from?

Posted by: orboy on: November 7, 2007

Yesterday and today I’ve been suffering from a sore shoulder.  For the life of me I can’t remember what I did to have it be so sore.  I can only assume it was something I did Sunday, but what?  Lets backtrack.
Sunday morning I got up and took a shower.  Then, I played some Guitar Hero [...]

Fast week

Posted by: orboy on: November 3, 2007

Wow!  It feels like just yesterday I was whining about having to go back to work after the weekend.  And now look!  The weekend came back.  It DOES love me! (You know that when they come back.)

When Alligators Attack

Posted by: icagirl on: November 2, 2007

There I am, sitting on the floor, playing with our pet alligator (the docile one, as the one known to eat living beings has his own aquarium but he’s watching me playing with his brother). I’m just chilling out, having a good time. Boy and his mother come in and sit on our really ugly [...]

[Internet] Victory is mine!

Posted by: orboy on: November 2, 2007

I’m typing this from my laptop at home. That’s right! The internet is working! I have NO idea what was wrong, but it’s working now. Somehow a successful phone call (finally) to India made it happen. It’s like that thing where if you find something that you want to show someone but when [...]

Who can you believe anymore?

Posted by: orboy on: November 2, 2007

When I was younger, the family dog died.  I didn’t know she (Sheba) died, at least not until after not finding her in the back yard and asking my mother about her whereabouts.  She had told me that sometimes, when dogs get old, they jump the fence and run off.  I believed her.  Later, she [...]

Little lights everywhere

Posted by: orboy on: November 2, 2007

At night when I go to sleep, like any normal human being, I turn off the lights.  Well, I should say I turn of “the” light, or the “main” light. This involves flipping a switch that cuts the power feeding into the lamp which is the primary source for light in the bedroom.
However, once the [...]

Too much means too little

Posted by: orboy on: November 1, 2007

I’m at that point where I have so much to do that I don’t want to do anything (mostly at work). Not only that, things like the internet being down at home just makes it hard – yes, that still hasn’t been resolved yet. I don’t know. I mean I guess I could [...]
