My car is dying. That noise that I was hearing that I wanted to believe was nothing, actually was the compressor that could die at any time. So I need to figure out how to pay for a car and get to Ohio, and possibly buy a place in Ohio. Oh crap! At least on Tuesday I can divulge myself in a whole day of Halo right?
I don’t use my computer for gaming, I used to for some RTS, but mainly that is what my XBox is for. Because I don’t, I can’t justify building a powerhouse for myself. My computer is fine for now, but one day I will need a new one. When that day comes, I might just buy a prebuilt computer, instead of doing it myself which I did for the one I’m on now. I know that there are some people who might hunt me down for saying that, but the truth is that when I was using it for gaming then I could justify it, but prebuilt ones aren’t that bad, and they are a lot less expensive. I’ve found some cheap computers that aren’t bad, especially with the huge harddrive they give you and the processing power. I don’t know if I will go that route, so unless I do you cannot hunt me down, if I ever do however, then you can do to me what you will.
Halo 3 comes out on Tuesday. I might be obsessed, but I love these epic story lines. Plus Halo 2 has been the majority of my online gaming the last four years and it is getting dull, so now I will be able to play the campaign online as well as all new maps with all new vehicles and weapons. Think about how all you WOW fans would feel if WOW 2 came out.
We may have figured out a way to actually afford to move. It involves getting a cheap mortgage and working our butts off, but I don’t anticipate working any harder than we do now. I mean we already work most days of the week, even though we do it from home, most of the work is done sporadically due to people not able to get back to us, or whatever. I mean if we are pooling our money, instead of having everything separate then we will be able to pay back any loans. I am the only one that drives so I would have to put out the money for car insurance, I wouldn’t ask Krissy to do that. I would have to find the best car insurance out there seeing as how I don’t think what I have now will be in Ohio.
My birthday was all right, didn’t do much due to the fact of the lack of funds. We need to save everything we can for our trip to Ohio (which may be next week). I just sat around playing Halo most of the day. I also had cake and brought my car to get looked at. Hopefully by tomorrow I will know what the noises are and I will be ready to drive to Ohio.
Yes it is my birthday, send me stuff!
Beautiful isn’t it? That’s the Sydney Harbour Bridge in Australia. I would love go visit Australia one day. To see the Sydney Harbour or the Opera House up close and personal would be amazing, definitely worth any amount of money. I will definitely go one day. When I do go I am going to check stay in a couple Sydney Hotels, Melbourne Hotels, and Brisbane Hotels. Yes multiple hotels in the same city, because sometimes one hotel doesn’t give you the full experience of being in a new place, as another would, and another one would offer all new experiences.
At least I know that if I choose CheaperthanHotels to book a room last minute, it would be cheaper than going right through a hotel and they have some of the best free extras like free meals and use of amenities. How convenient is that? I mean if you are spending money on airfare and a hotel, then a free meal is definitely a good thing.
I’ve been addicted to the Office for a few years now, well this is the first time I am watching the season finale, and I have to say that it is actually pretty good. I read spoilers back when it first aired because I didn’t know if I would get to see it before the premiere, so I knew what was going to happen (even though the previews for the premiere say the big surprise). I am dying to see what happens between Jim and Pam and Michael and Jan. Also I want to see BJ in his new position, that would be very interesting to see in the premiere. Office Premiere, in one week,. I can’t wait.
I found AndrewTalk and I think it is pretty interesting. He blogs about everything, kinda like I do. From making money to personal stuff, to how to populate your blog. I mean I don’t really like blogs that focus on one topic, like Harry Potter or video games, and I think he has a wide variety of topics to choose from. Granted on his sidebar there are only three topics, but within those three there’s much variety. Like in his personal category he talked about his birthday on one blog entry and the video game Second Life on another entry. They aren’t the same dribble that is posted on other blog sites either, these are informative and entertaining. If you have a chance check it out.
The one call that was asking about the loan, was actually a credit card company and it was for Krissy. If we can get enough credit cards, then everything would be paid for by them. I really don’t want to do that though considering the amount of time it took me to pay back the one. Did I mention I am going to take my car in and pay it on the credit card? Damn this vicious cycle!
I’ve been interested in investing in the stock market for a while now, I just am afraid I would lose all my money, especially with the way things are right now. There’s a virtual stock market that I found out about and I might be joining to see how I do investing. It is called the rookie challenge. It is free to register and when you register you receive $100,000 virtual money for you to invest. They keep it simple mby only allowing you to buy and sell stocks. What is unique about this game is that it is open the same time the stock market is, Monday through Friday 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. What is also cool about the game is every week you could win $1000 just for playing the game.
I think I am going to sign up a little later today because it sounds like it could be really fun. I mean when you want to do something but you don’t have the money for it, might as well pretend to do it in a game right? Plus the added bonus of possibly winning $1000 doesn’t sound too bad, I could use that for my car, or moving expenses.
I’ve got some phone calls to make, I have to cancel this one thing I ordered for my credit report because I don’t want to get charged for it. I also need to call back my credit card company regarding a loan. I just hope everything goes smoothly because I have some work to do because the Userplane chatroom is finally working how it is supposed to be. I mean their documentation isn’t very clear but their tech support can be useful.
