11-0, 11-0

Filed under: Uncategorized — mstjern @ 7:33 am

I so rock at Table Tennis on the 360. :) (was playing against M last night. I rock)

C is in H-town this week, so it’s very quiet here in the house. At least I got out of the house last night helping M&S set up their network at their beatiful, new house, and played some 360. Looks like the 360 wireless connection needs to be wired to work for gaming though, so need to plan an early morning “crawl-in-the-attic”-session with them at some point in the near future. Got home and started the second season of my dynasty in NCAA 2007, didn’t get to sleep until 2am-ish.

Then Gizmo decided that we needed to wake up at 8 this morning by howling like..eh…a dog, so I’m going on 6 hours of sleep.

/yes, after 11-0, 11-0 I happened to lose a Fight Night Round 3 match against M in the 7th round, but it was close.

Obvious Tip of the Day

Filed under: Uncategorized — mstjern @ 11:09 am

When cleaning up the backyard while your wife is out shopping for maternity clothes and you’re running around trying to get as much as possibly into the garage in the shortest amount of time, it is highly recommended *not* to drop an umbrella stand on your toe.

It hurts.

That’s all, folks.

Back from Mexico

Filed under: Uncategorized — mstjern @ 8:08 am

Wow. Crazy week after being gone for 9 days. Monday and Tuesday were pretty much work 24×7. Got a few things done to prepare for the party, but still lots to go this weekend and C is leaving for Houston on Sunday :(

Should have more time for blog posting after the party on the 22nd.

A Relaxing Sunday

Filed under: Uncategorized — mstjern @ 8:15 pm

It's 90-something degrees and sunny. Fixed 2 sprinkler heads, moved a bunch of flowerpots around the backyard. Fixed the watersystem to them. Filled in some holes with dirt and replanted some flowers. Fixed mister system. Cleaned the pool and hot tub. Had an excellent lunch (not made by me. Duh.). Drove to Home Depot and back. Only once though. Drank 4 bottles of Gatorade.

It's 3.15pm. I'm exhausted. Is it bedtime yet?

Saturday T-storm

Filed under: Uncategorized — mstjern @ 3:02 am

Woke up at 3am by the lovely sound of thunder and Texas rain. Always a good way to start the day, eh?
We finally fell back asleep and slept in til around 10am, had some yoghurt for breakfast (I didn't mess *that* up, so there!), I went out and did some errands. Drove and got my jacket and pants for Mexico, drove up to the other house to see if the tenant was there so I could fix the garage door. No such luck. Spent a few minutes at Best Buy dreaming about a new hard drive and a couple of Xbox 360 games, but decided to be a good boy and don't spend any money. Helped our friends, we'll call 'em S&M…(no wait, probably smarter to call 'em M&S instead!)…set up their TV & speakers in their new house.

Got back home, worked for a little, ran out and got Taco Bueno and Chicken & Noodle soup for C, had a conference call, did expense reports, played some 360 G.R.A.W. (almost 4,000 points now, not bad). Had a lovely dinner at Mi Cocina then got back home and I'm about to spend the next few hours doing nothing.
