Leaves are turnin’
So, it’s been a while since I’ve actually blogged, so I figured I’d update y’all as to what I’ve been doing:
- I started playing Star Wars Galaxies again
- I’m taking History at the local community college
- I got an iPhone
- I went to San Diego
- I have a bum hip
- I went to Las Vegas
- I’ve been working on my super-secret web project again
- I’m working on cool Halloween costumes
SWG: So, my friend Chris and I started up playing SWG again — there seems to be a lot of new stuff to do, so been having fun with that.
History: Since I knew I was going to be traveling a lot this quarter, I elected to do a class online this semester. Since there’s not that many classes I can actually do online, I figured I might as well take History. So far so good, although I got a 75% on my first test :( I made it up with the last test — I got a 96%!
iPhone: It took me a while before I pulled this trigger — when I saw my friend Ray’s, I had to have one — they’re just so freakin cool! No buyer’s remorse here — definitely worth the cash
San Diego: In August, my niece Melanie got married in San Diego, and I went there (along with other family) to see her off. It had been a while since I was in SD — was definitely a memorable experience. Other than the wedding itself, the most memorable parts were: Closing down The Beach (a bar at the W, complete with bonfires and sand :), losing my keys at said bar and freaking out about it the following day, and then spending some time in ER a few days later! I’m not sure if the events were related or not… :) After that weekend, I spent the week in San Jose.
My hip: So after my trip to San Diego and San Jose, my left hip started bothering me. My doc put me on 800mg IB, but that didn’t do much besides deadened the pain a little bit. I’m still limping pretty heavily – have an appointment to see an ortho in a week or so — hopefully he’ll fix me up.
Las Vegas: I took Brandy to LV las month (with bad hip and all) — was cool, but not being able to move really sucked the fun out of the trip 
Web Project: I have had an idea for a website for many many many many years now, and with the current economic status, I figured it would probably be a good idea to knock it out. Hopefully I’ll get it to the beta stage and can start getting people in to check it out!
Halloween: So a couple of months ago, I had an idea of going all out this year. We’re not normally the type to do much for Halloween, but since I’ve been so heavily interested in Star Wars lately, I mentioned doing a SW theme for the family. They were totally on board! Daphne is going to be a jawa, Amelia is going to be a jedi padawan, Brandy is going to be Leia (ANH, no golden bikinis ), and I’m going to be… Vader :) Mine is going to be the most work. I’m making mine and Daphne’s costumes — I’ll of course post pics when we’re all done. Will need to find some costume contests to enter
