I think my computer has lost a bet with God... Whenever a problem arises, the only operable resolution seems to be reformatting and reinstallation of Win XP. 
For the past day and change, I've been assessing damage in what has evaporated into the digital ether. All of my Wednesday Night SGCT pics are one casuality.

Very brief update... Our DSL and phoneline are out. It looks as if it won't be attended until Monday so sadly, no real interaction here. Depending on how bored I get later, I may take AlienPrincess' iBook for a leisurely stroll to Koffee and make use of their free wi-fi. Perhaps I may have more exciting randomness for you, my four fan club members...

All of downtown Middletown is setup with free wireless internet so you can use a laptop in any restuarant or store or park etc.....

I love free wi-fi
Or you could do what I do, drive my car down the streets in residential neighborhoods and look for unsecured netoworks and borrow some bandwidth.

Hello true believers... I'm getting my drunken PC repair tech on for the second night in a row. With permission, I've stole my desktop PC from work in order to solve a number of problems... There's been bizarre error messages, the odd viral infection, no reliable way to backup data and slow performance. So, I've installed my old CD-RW drive that's homeless after my DVD-RW...

you are the cutest boy in the world and there's nothing you can say to argue since you have already gone to sleep and are making tiny little snores. sooooooo cuuuuuuuuuute!!!!!
Overtime achieved without too much incident... I even made it to work on time! Classy. ElmCityDrunk, GrumpyBear and myself went to visit Allied at his new job last night. People watched, threw out requests to the night's DJ and actually heard them!

Got back into the swing of things at work... Thursday's are spent assisting the resident of my house who works for the Parks & Rec Dept. We raked a bunch of local small parks and helped plant tulip bulbs.
I received the word that the problem techer at work has officially left the building! His 90-day review came up while I was out in Iowa....

Well kids, I'm back safely in CT... Granted, circumstances could be better but, I'm home and that's what counts! It seems that my good air travel karma ran out at once. Missing luggage, very late departures & arrivals, horribly turbulent flights, etc. Again, happy to be home...finally.
I schedule myself to report to work tomorrow for a short 3-4 hour day. Not quite sure how...

Back at mon Pere's home base in Madison County... Headed out of Omaha at an hour much later than what I'd originally hoped for, especially since I was the git driving. Maybe I should, time and parental absence allowing, catch everyone up on the trip so far...
I arrived in town on Monday at 4pm, by Tuesday at 4pm I was in the Des Moines...

It's the day after SG Cabaret and I think it can be commonly agreed that everyone had an awesome time! I was proud to see nearly every familiar SGCT face out getting lit and drunkenly grinning at nekkid chicks. 
The ride up to the venue was fun. SmokingBuddha and I caught up on randomness and his newly-hatched plan on purchasing an iPod. The ride back...

dude- i underestimated your girl's penchant for quervo. my bad. hope the trip is fun.
Similar to my last update, it seems like forever since my last having something to say...perhaps I should pop my head in here a few times before next week. Next week, you ask? Yep, I'm flying out to Iowa to visit my father and his family for Turkey Day. It's been about two years since I've seen him and four or so since I've stayed...

Well, it feels like ages since I'd updated last... Since most of the comments I'd been left pertained to how busy I am, I guess it's true - I am pretty fucking busy. 
And for the evidences of such...
