Thanks for the birthday wishes, everybody! It was uneventful, since my mom & my sister are out of town, and I still don't have any friends. This is how the day went:

I get up in the morning, brush my teeth, and get breakfast at Whataburger. I go to work, and spend 8 hours listening to people yell at me on the phone because their...

Wow, I haven't updated in... *checks watch* forever.

My website is totally awesome now, because I got some forum software running on it. Something's not quite working right with the forums, though, so I'll try to work it out.

Big brother has been in for the weekend. He's staying until Wednesday, when he has a job interview. Hopefully, he'll be moving down here for good...

So my cousin Margaret, her husband, and their baby got here on Thursday. And my brother came down for a visit over the weekend.

Visiting with the family is always nice, but it's starting to bug me that we never *do* anything. I'd like to play Scrabble, or watch a movie, or go to Six Flags or a park or something. But we just go...

Rita's on the rampage. And I have family down in Houston. They will be coming up here pretty soon.
fallfromgrace:
I'm sorry to hear that. here's to hoping and praying it doesn't come to that.
fallfromgrace:
thanks for the heads up. smile

Not much interesting in my life.

I got a subdomain: http://justintnelson.homelinux.com/

I just farted. Really.

Trying to cut back on spending. I haven't bought any new games for the DS, and I'm almost never eating out anymore. I'm trying to pay off the last bit of credit-card debt. If all goes well, my brother will be moving back here this year. If I have my...

I saw The 40-Year-Old Virgin. I was expecting a total dumbshit immature fart-joke movie. It was actually pretty funny.

You know how I know you're gay? 'Cause you have a rainbow-colored bumper sticker that says "I love it when balls are in my face."

w00t! I now have a working Linux box. It's running Slackware 10.1, and I've managed to install and run: Samba (file-sharing with my Windows box), Apache (Web server), Doom Legacy (abeit without sound), and Firefox. I'm trying to get Drupal (a web-journal program) running, but the installation is giving me problems.

Here's my piddling little web site: http://justintnelson.homelinux.com/

Nice. I wish I could get linux to work, but I'm too lazy to try.

ps you have a spelling error on the page.
fallfromgrace:
You tricky devil! I didn't read it!

I'm just saying, having a link to your resume and a typo on the page wasn't something I would think you would want together. wink

My friends list is shorter.... Who deleted me?

Wait, where's Cigarette? He must have gone anon. That sucks; I liked his presence on the site.

Ah-ha! I just remembered he left me a testimonial. *checks* He changed his name to kthxbye and went anonymous. Cute, very cute.

On the plus side, since I have only ten friends now, I can see all their avatars....

Wow, good idea! Once I take a break from Annie Tetris I may just do that...

I just made an update to both the scrambler and the nanoizer by the way. Now they will preserve tabs and carriage returns. I didn't like that the phrase you posted all got squished into one line.

I've been at work an hour, and I just got a call from the ops desk saying I'm not supposed to be here today. It would have been nice to know BEFORE the weekend! grumble grumble....

I guess when you look at it that way, it's not so bad.

My sister has opened up her house in Denton, which she's been trying to sell for a while, to a family of New Orleans refugees evacuees. We spent most of yesterday moving furniture and housewares up there to get it ready. I feel good about that.

Mom has mentioned the idea of letting someone live in our spare bedroom, but being Mom, she hasn't done...

they aren't refugees. they are evacuees. or hurricane victims, if you will. and your sister is awesome for being so generous.

Okay, so I'm not going to find out today what part, if any, I've got. That'll be next week. But I think auditions went well.

Just had to have the car fixed. $320 or so. That, on top of tuition, just emptied my bank account. It's a good thing I live at home, or I'd be starving for a while.

You know what bugs me?...
