I just hate parking in general. My dad had this bright idea of making me park on like my third time driving ever. [img]tongue.gif[/img] Yeah.. right. There was this nice wide stall(2 in a row empty, in fact), so my dad was like 'whip in here'. Simple enough. [img]tongue.gif[/img] 5 minutes later, I'm still trying to get straight, since I was halfway into the other stall and cars were busy honking at me since I was taking up road space too. Eventually my dad just kicked me out of the drivers seat and got us parked. I've hated parking since. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Whew I'm exhausted LOL. 11 hours of Christmas, finally everyone's gone... Was pretty a pretty fun Christmas mostly, we ate, we played all kinds of different Christmas music, exchanged gifts, then had a few beers and gabbed, watched a few strange shows on TV and all laughed about it. Again was a pretty good Christmas [img]smile.gif[/img] But even as fun as it is, after 11 hours man, you are just mentally worn out from all the talking at the least LOL.

Hope everyone's holiday was a nice one as well! [img]smile.gif[/img] |

So...Christmas from Lyle's perspective:
Last Year: Ate waaaay too much at my aunt's, then at my grandmother's. This Year: Ate waaaaay too much at my aunt's, then my grandmother's, but was relieved from the nuisance of digesting by a nasty bug. Last Year: Got lots of presents. This Year: Got lots of presents, including some spiffy pants. Last Year: Stayed at grandparent's until midnight. This Year: Stayed at grandparent's until midnight, then was at my uncle's til two. Last Year: There was a snowstorm, and our car got two flats on the drive home at 1 o'clock in the morning. This Year: It was rainy and nasty, but my car had already broken down the day before Christmas Eve, so I thought I was in the clear...til the alternator belt broke on my sister's car... Yep...Christmas as always!

Hee, joined the boxing day madness and got myself a TV, from Best Buy
A pretty good deal I thought, $500 off and they gave me 20% off the wall mount as well. I would have gotten another $100 off the TV if I purchased an extended warranty, but I wanted to have some money left over in the piggy bank. Sheesh, now I have to wait until thursday to get it... dunno if I can wait that long. |

Am I the only person who's starved for a new PC game? I know my tastes are specific. Usually I play RPG's and Strategy games and I like 'em turn based. I havn't bought anything new in some time.
I'm really looking forward to Heroes 5 and Dark Messiah. What is everyone playing right now?
