Being sick! Blahhh...

Nothing sucks more that being sick. I had a cold for the last couple of days, so I haven't been very productive and I missed a day of work. Not cool at all, and now the girls have it.

As for how my week end went, It wasn't too bad. My wife and I had a ruff Sunday morning because of a long evening the night before. It wasn't drinking, it was CANASTA. I love the game, don't get me wrong, but it may not have been a good game to start at 10pm. We played three games, it was fun. Still shorter than domino's.

Outside of the sickness and the night of canasta, we had some good family time. With us and the girls and with the in-laws.

I also finished the second book in the Horus Heresy novels from Black Library. I'm still hooked, I'm going to pick the third book as soon as I can. I'm anxious for the books that cover the Dark Angles and the Fallen Angles.

Hopefully, the girls get over the cold soon.

Later

Jinx this!

Did you ever think that the day is going just a little too good? I go ta admit that I started the day off like this. I woke up this morning, had coffee ready (thank you for the new coffee machine sweet heart), something to eat, a good drive in and I was at work with allot of time to spare.

Now that my work day is winding down and I'm almost done, I guess I really didn't have anything to be to paranoid about. I know that by typing this, I maybe jinxing myself. Hell, I'm the one who always freaks out went someone say "Last run" while snowboarding and your still at the top of the hill.

I'll walk down!

But I do feel comfortable saying that it was a good day today, I'm at peace with saying this. Especially knowing that I'm going home in 5 minutes, and I still have to drive there, lol.

I also hope that this means I'll have a good game curling tonight.

See ya later

Need to learn Wordpress

Ok, I know that these easy to use templates on Blogger are nice for the average Joe, but it's driving me a little nuts. It's not letting me personalise the page like I would like to see it. I've been using computers since I was 12 and I know allot of different computer languages (even thou there all old [Dbase, Turbo Pascal, Basic, etc...ssshish I feel old]).

Html wasn't hard to figure out a few years back when I was playing around with a geocities page, I think I can figure wordpress. Besides, there are a few things I would love to do with this whole blog thing. No flair, but definitely a personal touch.

The curling season is going pretty well, and I'm already starting to feel a little sad that it's two thirds done. I'm very happy that my wife is ok with me still playing 2 night a week, it's really helped with my game, and I've noticed that my skip is making me throw more than just guards and draws. Hopefully I can keep it up.

On another note, my girls have started a new session of swimming and there doing so good. Laura's swimming so well, that Darcy and I are really thinking about having her participate in a competitive team. Provided that "I" don't have to drive her to the pool at 5am for a practice. O is also doing very good, her back and front floats are supper good. I think my wife and I have fish for kids.

I kinda missed not posting for the last few days, so I really want to make an effort to keep this up. So until next time.

Cheers

My first post of 2010

2009 is over and time to go back to work.

So what to make my first post of the year be about!

I got a PS3 for Christmas (Thank you sweet heart), so I'm enjoying the list of new titles that I have to play with, Ratchet and Clank, Uncharted 2 and so much more.

This holiday I did have a chance to play Batman:Arkham Asylum and Border Lands. Holy hell, I loved both very much. I really feel bad about having a wii for so long, because I feel like I've been deprived.

Speaking about the wii, I did play BoomBlox with my oldest and that was very cool. Now that she old enough to play video games, the wii just maybe getting more play outside of Rock Band.

So now that I've finally got the first post of the year up, I should be able to keep it up.

Talk to you soon
