Update

So, of course, my life cannot go without something going wrong. I got a call from Brittany's dad yesterday. He went to check out the house and found out that our wind storm, screwed up a lot of the roof and someone had also broke in by knocking the glass out of the door in the back. Two things that happened after I put my offer in. So, they can either pay for those repairs, or I'm pulling out.

Secondly, I watched Freedom Writers with Brittany last night. I was really impressed. I bought it because I wanted it and because of Sixty's review. It's a very, very touching movie and I really enjoyed it. I recommend it to anyone.

Gotta run.

High Winds!

So, yesterday..I think I came the closest I ever will in Ohio to dealing with winds similar to a hurricane. Hurricane Ike's remnants, bashed against Ohio yesterday causing 1.5 million people to be without power and doing a lot of damage. It was rough.

Luckily, I have power and so does my work(DAMNIT!), haha.

Saturday: My Buckeyes got embarrised by USC. Kinda knew it was going to happen though, but it sucks badly. Got hammered after the game and played Rock Band with my wife/uncle and his girlfriend.

Sunday: Made an offer on a house. Hopefully, we get it. It's perfect for both of our wants. It does need 15k-20k worth of work, but it will be extremely beautiful if we can get it and once work is all done.

Today I ordered Heroes: Season 1 because Brittany needed to finish it and Heroes: Season 2 arrived today. I'll wait for her to catch up, but I'm anxious to watch it.

Anyways, I'm going to go eat lunch. Take care everyone!

Bored

Here I sit at work, bored. We are slow right now and I'm stuck sitting on my ass, you can only do so much on the internet before your bored to death. Anyways...

Yesterday: Worked, stopped into Best Buy to say hey to all my friends and got Baby Mama for the wifey. After that I went home, showered and watched Heroes all night. I only have 3 episodes left of season 1!

I bought Heroes: Season 2 off Amazon yesterday for $27-28 shipped, it was on sale(37% off). So excited!

That's about all the news I have! Take care!

Short Blog

Doing these blogs are fun, even if they are short. Quick update of what happened since last blog:

-I watched 6 more episodes of Heroes. Holy shit, I love this series!

-The total estimate of my car in damage is: $2,504.75, ought to give you a rough idea of how much damage was done to the passenger front corner of my car.

-Going to get Brittany one more gift for her b-day on the 20th, "Baby Mama" on DVD today. She loved this movie and even though I got her a dog that cost a shit load, what's $16? I spoil her, but she deserves it, she has always been there for me and I love her with all my heart.

-Going to watch more Heroes tonight after work!

That's about it.

P.S. Has anyone talked to Fran lately? I messaged her and haven't heard back, I hope all is well with her.

Good News

Thank God, shortly after posting my blog yesterday I received a call from her(the lady who backed into me) insurance agent. They are accepting full liability, so I drove my car to my repair shop this morning and dropped it off.

I also have a rental car paid for since I have nothing to drive, they gave me a PT Cruiser. Surprisingly, it's a pretty nice car. It's not as fast at my Grand AM GT, but it's a very nice and smooth car.

One last thing, I've been watching Heroes(watched 6 or 7 episodes last night of the first season) and WOW, I'm obcessed with watching this show. I don't see how people could wait for the next episode. It's such a good show, I can't wait to watch more after work.

Other than that, I've been offered to do videos on a game reviewing website. It's to get your name out their, so I think I may take up that offer. The cool thing is I can continue to upload to youtube, so that website will be solely for exposure. It's currently open to invitation only, but should be available to the public in the future.

Anyways, I'm off to do some work(just got here).

Shitty Weekend

Friday: Worked and then got some mexican food from one of my favorite places to eat, Fiesta Mariachi. After that, we were watching Fool's Gold, but Brittany fell asleep, so I told her to go ahead and get in bed and we can finish it later. After she went to sleep, I watched School for Scoundrels. I found it to be very funny. I enjoyed it.

Saturday: Horrible day. My realtor asked us to pick up some papers from his office(WHICH WE DIDN'T EVEN NEED) and on my way out of the apartment, some dumbass backs into my car as I'm driving. She has the audacity(SP?) to say, "You didn't see me?". Obviously not, you dumbshit, or I would have stopped, besides I'm in the right of way and I shouldn't be looking for idiots backing out, that's your job. GAH! So, due to the fact that it was in a apartment complex, the police wouldn't come out, because it was, "on private property", so I have a feeling no one will get faulted and I'll be fucked over. It's over $2000 of damage, I'd say.

*Sports alert* To top that off, the Buckeyes looked like the biggest piece of shit against a very shitty team and barely came out with a victory. We only play the #1 ranked team next Saturday. GREAT. Oh well, I support my team.

After that, my buddy came over and watched the ECU vs. West Virginia upset. Then we went to pick up pizza and went to my other bud's house to watch the Florida vs. Miami(FL) game. I hate Florida, but my friend is a big Flordia fan. After that, we watched the UFC fight. Chuck Liddell got his ass kicked, it sucked.

So, no investigation as I had a investigator cancel at the last moment, leaving me with a brand new investigator, I couldn't train and do everything else by myself, plus my car is fucked.

Sunday: Went to Roosters with my friends to watch the Miami Dolphins game. They played well, but lost. Pretty much lost on a bullshit play by Brett Farve. Farve = douche. Came home and relaxed for a bit. Went to my dads to say hey and borrowed Heroes Season 1, I've always wanted to see this show, so I'm excited to watch it.

That's my weekend in a nutshell. Take care.
