My sister’s flight left yesterday morning, luckily no delays this time! The night before we were at the North Coventry mall when Nita gave us a call to see if we wanted to hang out with her and her sister. Yes! So they came over and we all went out to dinner, where this photo […]

Half-fixed Blinker
I took Blinker over to my mechanic this morning (Scott Smith over at Smith Automotive). It was awesome that he was able to squeeze the repair in this morning and it didn’t cost me a fortune ($35 in labor, $30 for the part, yay I can pay my rent! …I’m only mostly joking). The window? […]
South Street and broken Blinker
Sad that I just posted about my fixed car and now I’m talking about it being broken! Yesterday I decided to take my little sister down to Philadelphia for the day and to meet some of my friends. Another friend of mine is in town visiting, so the plan was to swing by and pick […]
Malls
My sister’s flight finally came into PHL Friday night around 11:30, so by midnight we were taking 76 through the city to head back to my apartment. I had planned on pizza that evening, but arriving back around 1AM left us with the options of a local diner or Wawa. Wanting her to have the […]

It was on time when she arrived at […]
Wii, TV, Blinker and Smartphone
I bought a Wii this weekend. It’s been on my “want” list for quite some time now but I kept putting it off due to financial considerations. I still had those considerations on my mind, but I needed some retail therapy. Nudge me via email to swap Wii and MarioKart codes :) I ended up […]
Git, Star Trek, firewall fail and sister
Wednesday night I skipped down to Philly for an amazing pollo y papas burrito at MexiCali Cafe and then over to PLUG for Kyle Burton‘s Intro to Git talk (slides are on his talks page). Great presentation, and in an interesting twist of fate, while sitting at the meeting I received an email from my […]
Misc life thingys
I slept in this morning. Sleeping in is somewhat unusual for me, but for some reason I’ve had a very difficult time sleeping lately, I’ll take what I can get! Once I got up I decided to take the plunge and upgrade my desktop from 8.10 (Intrepid) to 9.04 (Jaunty). It went well aside from […]
