• Odds and Ends…

  A mixed week…

  Alone again on Valentines Day… Grrr. That and Sweetest Day is not a day I like when I’m not at least seeing someone. To make matters worse  I dropped my PSP into a puddle of water that was five inches deep. PSPs have this tendency to open up, where you put in the UMD module, when you drop them. Sis tried to tell me it could be saved but it was not to be. Frack me. Out another $130.00. I did get a chance to play with the new PlayStation Vita and I sooooooo want one. Not the 3G version because it needs a data plan and if I want that I may as well get a Android phone. But when I played the demo for Hot Shots Golf I was hooked and was seriously thinking of buying it but I can wait until the price comes down a bit or treat myself on my birthday next month.

  I recovered from my cold. But for right now, I’m still taking Vitamin C just to keep it away with this “Winter” thing going on. Where’s the snow? Knowing my luck the month of March is the month when Old Man Winter decides to get caught up and dump snow on us. I’m hoping that the Summer Months ain’t going to be a scorcher because the warehouse where I work at has no air circulation what so ever. I can’t tell you the time I’ve had a summer cold due to walking in and out of a walk in cooler.

  I missed out on scoring any candy from Valentines Day. I remember when I went into a Walmart Halloween night at 1 am and I kid you not one lady had three carts filled up when the candy was marked down 50%.

  I’m hoping that the rain holds off this weekend so I can get two days of hour long walks in or I may start hitting the eliptical machine at some point. I’m not getting huge but the winter months in Ohio are hard to get outside and at least walk.

  I found out that Matt Bomer from White Collar was gay. Not that I care because I still like the show. And will still watch it.

  I guess my favortie show from the 1970′s Space: 1999 is in the stages for a remake. I’m not sure how I feel about it because there’s another attempt it and I think it looks better. And the guy who is charge of it gave us the V series remake and we know how that ended. There’s a fan site on Facebook that really good called Space: 2099. With all the remakes, this show, Space: 1999,should have had one mad sooner.

  Logged off my computer and found out that I have Windows 9/Explorer 9 and now have to go through finding all my favorites and re-saving them. I hated Firefox and now I have this as I am computer unsavy. Grrrr…

  Speaking of TV Shows: I read some where NBC is ordering a show that has Hannibal Lector in the show. A pretty good guess that Anthony Hopkins ain’t going to be in it. No offense this ain’t going to work. And I think that Manhunter, the movie they based on Red Dragon that Michael Mann directed and a young William Peterson as the lead. I loved the books Robin Harris wrote and the last third of Hannibal was just wrong with what he did to Ms. Starling. Not the movie version but the story was good but the author made sure you know that Mr. Lector is a major league bad guy and not someone you can sympathize with.

  Well just finished doing the laundry and it’s time to decide on something to read before calling it a night.

  Hope everyone is well and happy. Anything more is extra. But hitting the Power Ball would make things nicer…
