Rediscovering love for RPGs via Kingdom Hearts

I started playing Kingdom Hearts last night ( let me borrow it last weekend). And I must say, wow! Before Kingdom Hearts was released, a close friend of mine was always sending me screenshots and I got pretty excited about it. Then I picked up Final Fantasy X, because I loved Final Fantasy games, they […]

nes emus, messy ~, fishes

I started playing around with NES emulators again the other day. The last time I did it was probably over a year ago, and I was using debian stable versions so I never found one that was good AND had sound. I was looking through portage though, and discovered TusNES which has been working pretty […]

getting digital camera working in linux, caligula’s bath and rss feed.

Well I’d say that today was one of my most productive computer days in a while. I’ve been so caught up on spring cleaning and other projects lately. It feels really good. Michael left me an email this morning telling me that he got the camera working in linux. Well damn, I really had meant […]

Room painted, potato salad made… other things.

On Memorial day we finally got that bedroom painted. Yay! There are still some touchups that need to be done, but I’m already amazed at how great it looks. We’re not entirely sure whether we’ll make that into our bedroom again, and now that I know how great a room can look after being painted […]

Long sunday.

I woke up yesterday morning after less than 6 hours of sleep. That’s when I wrote that last journal entry and got the pictures off the camera. I’m quite sure I still had a bit of alcohol in me as well because I wasn’t thinking so fast, and I know that wasn’t simply because of […]

The party.

Yesterday began pretty slow, I read for a while and I’m very close to being finished with Ender’s Shadow, which is turning out to be really great. It takes place parallel to Ender’s Game from the point of view of another character. I was worried they’re be a lot of annoying overlap of the story […]

antihistamines

I have some seasonal allergies. I never had them while living in Maine, but when I moved away I started getting them. It’s not any fun, but since they aren’t particularly disabling I haven’t gone to the doctor for any sort of treatment. On days I feel all bogged down with congestion I take a […]

Playing with new software, remembering old friend, banning leeches.

Yesterday I spent a bit of time cleaning the screens in about half the windows. Last night Michael helped me figure out how to remove the rest of the screens. It’s pretty annoying that the old windows in the house are much nicer and easier to maintain than the newer ones. The newer ones have […]

Fat full food

I was in the grocery store on Sunday night to pick up a few things. One of the things I wanted was some yummie ice cream snacks, ice cream sandwiches maybe? I approached the freezer section and to my dismay saw a plethora of labels announcing: FAT FREE! LOW CARB! LOW CALORIES! DIET! WEIGHT WATCHERS! […]

Caligula eats books and things grow in my garden!

Caligula hates books. I read quite a bit, and when I’m reading I’m not paying attention to him. A couple weeks ago he started attacking the corners of my books with his teeth while I was reading them, I had no trouble shooing him away. Last week I saw him jump in my bookcase and […]
