Vintage
Good Monday all...
This weekend was generally pretty relaxing. Jannelle and I were going to go to the Blue Nile in Ann Arbor on friday night, but plans sorta fell through. Instead we just relaxed and went to Easy Street for a few drinks. On Lukas' suggestion, we both had a Hazed and Infused. Yummies!
Saturday was fun.. I did laundry and played some counter strike after Jannelle and I returned from Breakfast. Later that evening Saranga and Colin came over. We played some DDR, had some horrible taco bell, and then played some X-Men Inleashed on the XBoX.
Sunday was my lazy day. I did nothing... Well I guess I did something, but not much. I went and got coffee and a bagel for Jannelle in the morning. She went to Campus for some studying. She has 2 exams today.... Then I came home and did nothing....
I found this while surfing today. In the theme of the 80s, I though this would be appropriate.

WHA WHA WHAAAT? yes, an update...
Life has been extraodinarily busy for the last month. Let me highlight a few things...
- Got to race the Honda, after a busy Saturday makeover.
- Voted for Kerry, and was very disappointed in the nation's choices.
- Went out for Sushi with Lukas and Amber, Then came home for some (mostly) good beer.
- Traveled to Canton, Oh to help Daryl move.
- Worked approx 55 hours in the last 5 work days since we swapped out the router and firewall.
- Got off work early last night, bought half-life2 and played it for 3 hours straight. I haven't played a video game that could hold my attention for so long since the first half life. It beautifully rendered, shading, lighted and textures are amazing, and the game play is fantastic.
I found this today while I was browsing. It reminds me a lot of Jannelle and all of the good natured ribbings she takes from me. She was young enough not to remember a lot of the 80's that I do. Some of this list may be a bit off, and catered towards girls, but you get the point.
