My Blog is a Sad, Lonely Darth Vader...



So, I was just looking at Patty's blog and saw her post about having people from all over the world come visit her site! I was pretty intrigued by all of the random searches that led people to her page, so I thought I would ck my own analytics page to see what sort of fun stuff led people to my life! The results were less than exciting. Now, I realize that I haven't really had much to say at times, but I thought random hits would have happened. Yeah...not so much. Patty has people from like 47 countries visiting her website. She is just more exciting than me!
Maybe if I just mention Patty's website enough time in my blog, with hyperlinks to her page, people will hit on my page by accident! I doubt it, but here's to hoping! I find my own lack of faith disturbing...

Fun on the Couch



Often later in the evening, I find myself sitting on the couch watching a little tv, looking at the internet a bit, and constantly looking at the clock to decide what is a good time for me to go to sleep. Patty is usually on her laptop looking at her boards, so this is some nice quiet time we have. It's kind of funny when we are both just sitting here next to each other, each using a computer! A bit wierd, yes...but it works for us!

Back to Blogging


Well, I actually wrote up a whole new big blog, but Safari crashed and now I'm left to start over again. Sad. This will be much shorter than my original post. Basically though, I realized from my hiatus of blogging that I actually really liked it and missed doing it. I therefore decided that I would make an effort to do this more often!
So, even though I didn't take these photo's (obviously) I wanted to put up a couple of pics of things I've been doing lately! The first is my new MacBook Pro! I love it. It is great. We decided to get it since our other laptop is broken and since I am going TDY so much that I needed something to do my homework on, and so that we can skype together! The other picture is of a game I've been playing! It's actually been out since like 2003, and I've always wanted to try it. I'm happy to say that it hasn't disappointed! If you want to find out more about it, you can ck it out here.
Anyways, that is about it. I'll post some nice pics tomorrow!

It's all fun and games some nights!



Patty and I played a new game with our friends last night, it was called Dominion. It ended up being a card game, which I thought Patty would hate, but it was really fun and we both had a great time! It always helped that I won! :)
Tomorrow we are going snowboarding at Appi. I'm really excited to try out my new board, and to go out again and hit the slopes! I'm really excited for Patty aswell. I know she is going to feel way more incontrol this time and hopefully I'll get to take her down some of the bigger runs!

Happy Snowboard Day!


Well, my snowboard, boots, and bindings all came in the mail today! Needless to say I'm pretty excited! My apologies for not posting anything for the past few days, but I didn't realize how late school would really go to, and how tired I would be. I'll be sure to post earlier though to make sure I get a pic in every day! Anyways, either this weekend or next week, I can't wait to shred the mountain up with my cool board! They also included a nice winter hat, a baseball cap, and a pair of headphones for free in with the package! I highly recommend the place I got the board from (The House), which you can find here. They had wicked fast shipping and great service!

That's alot of Warhammer!

I traded some stuff for this sizable Warhammer army awhile ago, only to come to the conclusion that I don't really have the time (or the desire really) to play alot or get these guys up to a table top standard (ie painting and whatnot). So, I spent awhile today trying to sell them off. I think I might have some buyers too, which is very nice. These guys are always in demand so I hope I can move them. In another note, my side still hurts from my massive fall on Friday. Yesterday I was in all sorts of pain, and not just my side. I had this killer headache all day, and I didn't get around to posting a blog. Anyways, I felt guilty and the need to explain so, there you go. Anyways, good times, noodle salad.

Snowboarding at Mikado

My friend Ed and I took leave from work yesterday to go snowboarding. We were hoping ofcourse that there wouldn't be anyone else there really except for us, and boy were we right! After a little adventure getting there, we finally arrived to find that it was pretty much us and 4 other people on the slopes. The Japanese Army was also doing some training for a little while, but only on one run of the mountain. It was a really great day, filled with amazing views and awesome powder. I really only fell once (I'm getting much better now!) but that one fall made me think that I punctured my kidney. I fell so hard that somehow I elbowed myself in my right side, and bruised my insides pretty bad...needless to say it took the wind out of me. Luckily though I was able to shake it off and keep going! It was a great day and I'm looking forward to going again Monday!
