Personalized Books

My son received his personalized cd in the mail just a few days ago, and he has been loving it. He got the Elmo one, and throughout the disc they actually say his name as if they are singing to him. They offer a huge selection of personalized CD’s as well as personalized books to choose from. They have everything from Sesame Street to Mickey Mouse. On their DVD’s they even personalize the covers with a photo of your child. The personalized books would make a great gift for a child of any age. They even have products for adults! If you are having trouble finding the right gift for someone, or would like your story time to be more personalized for your child, be sure to check them out.

You Are Not Welcome

Next time I hold a door for someone and they can’t be bothered to say thank you I am going knock them on their ass I swear to god.  You’re buying a Cadillac. Good for you! I hope it fills the emptiness that was once your soul. Bitch.

Battletoads

Through the years I have somehow managed to miss out on the original Battletoads. I remember playing one of them on SENS back in the day, but it wasn’t till today I really gave the original a good run (at work hehe. Blackjack for the win!) I originally had written it off as another Double Dragon, with frogs, but aside from beating things up they couldn’t be more different. Mainly due to Battletoads not sucking. Everything about Battletoads is better than Double Dragon. The animation is better, it controls better, better sound, and most importantly it is more fun. But man is it hard. HARD. Granted I have been playing it on a phone, but that hasn’t been a problem for any of my other games. Its just an all around great game, and its crazy I have gone this long and never really played it. Considering it’s age it also really proves once again that graphics, hype, and some fancy marketing do not make a good game. Now back to figuring out what a Schlage is.

My mouse is the suck

I think its about time to upgrade the ol pc a bit. Nothing over the top. maybe just another gig of ram, and possibly a new video card. No real point in upgrading the sound card as our speakers seem to be shot. Guess new speakers should be top priority, with a new mouse closely behind it. It is so bad. Didn’t pay hardly anything for it, but man it is trash. The wheel is going out and everything. I wouldn’t mind getting one with some extra buttons either. More is better. This is already starting to sound expensive. We don’t have any of those Outer Banks rentals around here. Maybe some cheap speakers and a decent mouse will do it. Its good to be a cheapskate.

*Edit-While writing this my wife was actually buying new speakers…..freaky.

Tool

I have trouble understanding how some people are so into their jobs. And I’m not talking corporate-suit-and-tie type jobs either. I’ve worked a lot of places, and there is always that one person who acts as tho they have become the company robot. They always have their annoying little reminders of the “proper” way it is done. Gotta love the times you’ll be talking smack about something job related and they always have to chime in with how “thats a good way to get fired”. No shit moron. Who really runs their mouth about something and then actually goes and does it. Really what do some people get out of being such a tool? You can kiss all the ass you want, but at the end of the day your job still sucks and your right in the same boat with the rest of us. Get over yourself and get a life insurance quote.

62 woo woo

Managed to hit 62, and am already halfway to 63. After leaving Hellfire the mobs started to spread out more, and pulling adds isn’t as big an issue. Only 8 levels to go. So sick of questing. I just want to pvp and start working on my gear. Shouldn’t be long.

I just set up a usb flash drives for readyboost, and it seems to be helping a bit. Still hard to tell for sure tho. May have to test a few things.

Ya Buddy

Just for fun I searched my site for ” drug rehabilitation ” , and while I was expecting a bit more I did get quite a few for “drug”. I seem to get a lot drug related posts on here.
I’m getting so sick of people and their inability to call people back. My wife is constantly having issues with her doctor never calling her back, which just blows my mind. He’s a frikin doctor. Wtf. I had to call the insurance peeps for our dental insurance being all screwed up, he told me to send a fax and he would call me back. Ya right. Ass. I also called my old Karate instructor today to see when we could get Gavin started and how much it would cost. Of course he didn’t bother to call me back either. I’m pretty sure my phone is working. I get wrong numbers allllll day long. Ah well what can you do. People suck.

The Office Returns

Get out your best wrinkle cream, the new episode of The Office is about to come on. As long as it was away due to the writers strike I decided I didn’t care and wouldn’t bother picking it back up, but I’m full of it. Moved the kids bathtime up an hour to make sure we don’t miss it. I don’t even remember what was going on in it. Hope it doesn’t suck.

Outland Sucks

I think the grind of Outland is starting to get to me. I have been 60 for what feels like forever. I blasted through 47-60 only to come to a screeching halt. I’m using the same quest setup for maximum efficiency, but it really doesnt seem to matter as much as I am dying. The mobs are literally bumping elbows. Its rare to finish a fight without pulling 2-3 more mobs. The rare times your able to get enough downtime between fights to heal up/ drink is usually about the time the Fel Revear comes around to stomp on you, or a group of ?? alli roll by to send me back to the graveyard. Pretty frustrating solo. Starting to think that 58 was a bit soon to hit Outland solo. Gave Moonkin form a shot just to break things up a bit, and it just made things worse. I see why they call them oomkins now. I will stick with CAT6 form. Minus the 6. moonkin.jpg

gasp

After signing to another year long lease here we havent had much use for any mortgage lenders. I think after another year here we will be dead set on getting a house. It wouldnt be so bad if we could get the lesbos downstairs to move out. They are really weird. One is super nice, and the other is mega beeyotch. They must smoke a carton a day. Maybe we will luck up and they will get lung cancer. I kid. Should leave some nicorette on their doorstep with some anti smoking info lol.
