young america rebate scam
I’m really fed up with the Canon rebate thing. After waiting a month, there was still no update on my rebate status. I called them again and this time they tried to tell me that the UPC code was invalid which is totally untrue. I know for a fact that I mailed in the correct [...]
hanging curtains
It was a lazy day today and I didn’t wake up until very late into the morning. Jen made a wonderful breakfast consisting of french toast, bacon, and orange juice. It was great. After we finished up breakfast we hung up the curtain rod things from Ikea for the windows in the bay-window hanging off [...]
gym, shopping, and friends
Jen and I went to the group class at the gym this morning. Katie met us there. Afterwards we had lunch with Katie at Jason’s Deli at Cumberland Mall. Afterwards we parted ways with Katie and Jen wanted to do some shopping. I was low on gas so filled up at Costco while Jen went [...]
weekly game night
Today was another game night. I wrote an entry about it here.

Today Jen left early without me. She headed up to the Woodstock area to meet with Katie so they could go to the gym together. She was also going to take a few things to her house because the real estate agent is having an open house. She’s going to be up in that part [...]

I finalized the release 4.1 implementation plan with James E. and we got the RFC approved, so hopefully everything will go smoothly on Monday. I also crafted a unit-test strategy for [...]
photographing jens house
Jen and I loaded up my car and took some things over to her house this morning. We stopped at goodwill to look at inexpensive sofas to use as staged furniture in her empty house. Nothing was terribly cheap so we passed on that idea. We also went to Jen’s parents house to pick up [...]
dns troubles
After waking up semi-early we loaded the old Christmas tree into the car and dropped it off at the recycling place at Home Depot. Next we went running on the Silver Comet trail. It was a beautiful day – sunny and warm. Once we finished we went back home to shower and change. Later we [...]
pandora
Carole gave me the green light to work from home the rest of the week so I worked from home again today. While I worked, I listened to pandora.com – I love the idea of the service. You tell it what artists you like, and it will automatically play for you other artists with a [...]
