Published by October 28th, 2008 in music musings, music suggestion and shiny stuff. 8 CommentsToday is a pretty decent day for music releases, as there are four CDs that hit shelves today that I had to pick up:
I will confidently say that no less than one of these albums will make my year end list; you can count on it. I can’t remember a Tuesday where four CDs came [...]
music releases and a nice surprise (or two)
Published by October 7th, 2008 in all about me, music musings, music suggestion and shiny stuff. 4 CommentsFirst, I will bring out the surprise: remember how I was complaining about my Microbiology test, because it was so hard? Well, I must be a good guesser, because I got the highest grade in the class… a 97. Um, wow?!! I am happy about that, to say the least. Also, the professor sent out [...]
viva pinata: pocket paradise… first thoughts
Published by September 17th, 2008 in hotness, mixed media, shiny stuff and show the love. 5 CommentsAs a MAJOR fan of the Viva Pinata game for XBOX 360 (in fact, it is the reason I got an XBOX instead of a PS3), I was super excited when I heard earlier this year, that they were making a similar version of Viva Pinata for DS. Well, the game is out, and I [...]

However, is it just me, or was it kind of a HUGE blah moment after they announced that not much was changing with the ipod Touch? I mean, I waited for [...]

update, I guess?
Published by August 5th, 2008 in "pointless", all about me, friends, happenings, mixed media, shiny stuff and the catch-all-egory. 6 CommentsIt seems like I don’t have much to post about these days… or perhaps it is that I only have mundane things to post about? Either way, I feel like I could at least do a bulleted update list or something, to give y’all the 411 on what’s going on in the wonderful world of [...]
the reveal
Published by July 30th, 2008 in happenings, home improvement and shiny stuff. 10 CommentsWell, the new counter tops are in, and they look AMAZING. It is incredible how much of an improvement they make on our kitchen. First of all, the original counters were not only a cheap imitation granite, but they were installed improperly; meaning the dishwasher couldn’t be shut properly without LIFTING UP ON THE COUNTER!!!

The counter tops have been installed.
