Working hard to get my fill, everybody wants a thrill [Friday November 13th, 2009 at 1:03am] [ mood | productive ] Weight: 173.0 lbs Activity: Nothing today Kcals burned: 1770 Kcals consumed: 1550 Kcal deficit: 220 I have enough motivation to work out and eat right, but very little motivation to keep up with this blog! :P This week has been really bad for work and homework. I worked an extra shift this week so that I could get a day off next week for a Dr's appointment that I forgot to request off for. I've got two assignments due this weekend but I'm going up to Flagstaff with my family to take Roger on the Polar Express train ride. He thinks we're actually going to the North Pole. He's very excited. I am going to be stressing over homework the entire time. :/ On the plus side, today I wrote 13 pages of script without even blinking. I keep worrying that my script won't be long enough and then I actually sit down and write and it just pours out of me. The bad news is that I need to have 30 pages by tomorrow night. Hopefully the 5 hour car ride will be inspiring enough to write 15 more pages instead of playing Mario Kart DS or staring out the window listening to music. :P 40% chance of snow on Saturday. *fingers crossed* Things are going really good with Kenny. There are still some sort of shy/awkward moments here and there but it's mostly a "being seen in public holding hands" kind of shy. When it's just the two of us, I'm completely comfortable with him. He makes me happy. :) I haven't seen him much lately, though, with work. And now I'm not going to see him again till I get back from Flagstaff on Sunday. :( Woe. God, I am being such a GIRL. join?

Free to face the life that's ahead of me [Friday November 6th, 2009 at 1:06am] [ mood | good ] Weight: 174.2 lbs... didn't weigh this morning Activity: 7 hours at work Kcals burned: 2490 Kcals consumed: 1787 Kcal deficit: 703 Feeling good today. Work was blah but karmically, I'm fine with that. I found out our Comcast rep, Jeanette, is really into X-Files AND Supernatural! We need to be friends. Her and her hubby dressed up as Mulder and Scully for Halloween and their little baby? A green alien. A-FREAKING-DORABLE. I have a lot to do over the next few days. I haven't worked on my screenplay at all for the past two weeks. In one week's time I have to have the first draft of Act 1 and I should really get more of my filmmaker's journal finished. Tomorrow is date night. Sushi and The Fourth Kind. Very excited. Wait... UM WHAT SHOULD I WEAR!? O_O Aaaaand my computer just crashed again. Fucker. 5 rebels join?

I used to think maybe you loved me now baby I'm sure [Thursday November 5th, 2009 at 12:36am] [ mood | tired ] Weight: 174.2 lbs... No change Activity: Did about 10 mins worth of walking throughout the day Kcals burned: 1790 Kcals consumed: 1335 Kcal deficit: 455 I know, I'm back to my infrequent posting. Sorry! But I'm being good... mostly. I haven't had a maintenance day except Halloween (actually not 100% sure since I have no way of knowing how many kcals I drank that night...) and the following day, when I was nursing my hangover but I DID NOT overeat!!! An amazing feat, IMO. I've only worked out once, though. :/ I found that the Glee soundtrack is a perfect workout mix! More importantly, (yes, more important than my calories) I met someone! Well, I didn't meet him cos I already met him a few times at Chuck and Mary's. But we kissed at the Halloween party. Today was his birthday. I really really like him. GIGGITY. Speaking of Halloween, here are some pictures! :D ( Click. ) Now I'd better go to bed cos I have work in the morning. Boo. Speaking of work, holiday hours have begun which means Best Buy is now open an hour later. Bah humbug. :( 1 rebel join?

It's like a whirlwind inside of my head [Friday October 30th, 2009 at 2:45am] [ mood | why is 'cold' a sadface!? ] Weight: 174.2 lbs... YAYAYAY! Activity: worked 5.5 hours Kcals burned: 2280 Kcals consumed: 1675 Kcal deficit: 605 Finally dropped below 175! What a relief. I thought there was something wrong with me. Nothing new to report from yesterday. It is getting so cold!!! I'm so happy! I wore a long sleeve shirt today! :D Yesterday I watched the episodes of Smallville where ( spoilers... ) I still really want Lex to be a good guy, though. Michael Rosenbaum is a freaking badass in that role. P.S. NEW DOCTOR WHO ON NOVERMBER 15TH!!!!!!!!! YAAAAAAAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!! 2 rebels join?

It's the life I love but it's you I can't live without [Thursday October 29th, 2009 at 3:06am] [ mood | tired ] Weight: 175.6 lbs... If I'm not down to 174 very soon, I feel like I'm gonna lose it. Activity: If being lazy counts as an activity, I nailed it today! Kcals burned: 1770 Kcals consumed: 1918 Kcal deficit: +148 Had a maintenance day today. I probably should have worked out but I only got four hours of sleep last night so I really really wasn't feeling it. Had to read through everyone's screenplay stuff before class and I worked an extra day so I didn't have time until last night. I also had to burn a DVD for this guy who wants me to do some editing stuff for his 9/11 memorial thing, and my computer kept crashing in the middle of rendering so I had to start over from scratch three times. On the bright side (except not) I figured out what's been making my computer crash. It was the 6GB of Crucial memory I added in. I chatted with Dell customer service and they suggested I remove all the components I've added to the computer one by one to see which one might be causing the conflict. They said I should start with the memory cos it was the most likely culprit. I guess I'm glad it was the first thing I tested cos it would've taken forever to go through all the other stuff. Unfortunately the memory's already gone beyond the 30 day return policy, but there is a limited lifetime warranty so hopefully that'll cover me! I FINALLY watched the Richard Donner Cut of Superman 2. WOW. Totally different movie! Still not as good as part 1, but much much much infinitely better than the Lester cut, IMO. :) Now on to Superman 3......... :P Oh! So Best Buy started carrying fitness equipment/accessories and the isle where they're set up is right next to the computer department so I've browsed through some of the stuff there. It's all really really cool. I could spend a lot of money in that department if I wanted to. I'm thinking about getting a calorie meter or something like it. They're all pretty fancy/expensive though. There's one called a Fitbit that looks promising. It's a fancy pedometer. The price isn't bad after my discount and it comes with a free membership to their website to track distance, steps taken, calories burned (I guess based on age/weight?), and even sleep patterns. I'll be sure to update if/when I decide to make a purchase! P.S. Looking forward to Halloween!!! :D!!!! 4 rebels join?

It's all for the best [Sunday October 25th, 2009 at 2:56am] [ mood | bored ] Weight: 175.8 lbs (AAARGH!) Activity: 40 mins on the elliptical Kcals burned: 2210 Kcals consumed: 1886 Kcal deficit: 324 It's been hard to get a good deficit lately. Am I stress eating? I don't know, but whatever's going on, it sucks. It seems like I haven't lost any weight at all since I started! :( I'm determined not to give up though. That is just not an option. Carved pumpkins at Mary's house today. It was really fun! :D Here's a picture of the results: ( You know the drill... ) Workout went really well today. I found a good method: watch an hour long TV show without commercials. It comes out to just over 40 minutes so I spend the first 30 mins going at a steady pace and then I slow down to a walk for the last 10 mins. It's not much more effort that a normal 30 minute workout but it feels like a bigger accomplishment. On the downside, the footpads on the elliptical machine are sliding off and whatever cheap-ass glue they used to attach them keeps sticking on my socks. It's the worst. I have to stop every 5 minutes or so to put everything back to rights. It's really annoying and makes the workout a lot less satisfying. Going to have to get that fixed. I'm sure it's still under warranty. I have to wake up in about 5 hours but I cannot go to sleep right now. I didn't end up going to bed until 5am and I didn't wake up until 3pm. I was awake for 21 hours straight yesterday. I'm such a wuss for not being able to sleep after seeing a scary movie. :( But I don't work until 3pm on Monday so I'll be able to catch up on sleep then. Tomorrow is gonna suck though. :/ 1 rebel join?

Hands touching hands, reaching out, touching me touching you [Saturday October 24th, 2009 at 3:47am] [ mood | nervous ] Weight: 175.2 lbs (didn't weigh this morning) Activity: 7 hours at work Kcals burned: 2490 Kcals consumed: 2125 Kcal deficit: 365 Saw Paranormal Activity with Amy and Brian. It wasn't as scary as I thought it'd be but I still don't really wanna talk about it. Covered my face for the last two minutes. Fuck that noise. Won't be easy falling asleep. Going to listen to more Neil Diamond and hope that helps. Also locking the bedroom door. I think I've decided to stick with the red hair. And I think I'm gonna make a Batman pumpkin tomorrow. Ate delicious bbq pulled pork sandwich at Brushfire today. Soooo yummy. Not very low in kcals though. I guess I should get ready for bed but I really really don't wanna open my door and go brush my teeth. I might just sleep with the light on. I suck. :/ 2 rebels join?

I can tell the difference between margarine and butter [Friday October 23rd, 2009 at 12:54am] [ mood | sore ] Weight: 175.2 lbs (as of 10/20... booo) Activity: 7 hours at work Kcals burned: 2490 Kcals consumed: 1876 Kcal deficit: 614 Sorry I haven't updated in a while. I've been pretty good about counting kcals and I've worked out 4 of the past 7 days! So I'm doing pretty good. I think that's not showing in my weight cos I haven't been drinking enough water, it was that time of the month again, and I've had two maintenance days this week. :/ What kept me from updating was work and a SHIT TON of homework. But now I have no homework for 3 weeks! The first class with my new screenplay went really well, I think. The consensus was that I need to bring in more pages next time, but everyone was jazzed about my outline. 9 effing pages. Never been so proud of my work. I'm really psyched about this! :D Also psyched about Halloween!!!! I made something really cool to go with my costume. It's a working bluetooth headset a la Uhura's crazy retro silver beast from the original series. I'll post pictures when it's done. I need to add a behind-the-ear piece cos it's too heavy without it. On the downside of life, my brand new computer keeps crashing. I spent the last two hours running pre-boot diagnostics on it and everything came back roses so I have no idea what's going on. I'll have to call Dell. :( Roger turns FOUR YEARS OLD today (Friday)!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe it! There is no way it's been 4 years since he was born!!!?!?!?!? I bought him a digital camera. Surprisingly, he actually liked it! It was really cheap, so I'm not worried about him breaking it or anything. Eric is taking him to Disneyland for the weekend so I told him I expect to see pictures of Mickey and Minnie in their Halloween costumes! My dad convinced him that Donald Duck was going to dress up as a chicken so I'm sure I'll get a picture of Donald Duck just so Roger can prove him wrong. :P Pumpkin carving party at Mary's on Saturday. Thinking about getting my hair cut and dyed before then. Definitely need the haircut but can't decide about the dye. Stay the same color? Go black? Do something crazy like purple highlights? AND, do I get it done professionally or just do it at home? THE OPTIONS ARE ENDLESS. Video-ed a wedding last weekend. Blegch. Bride was nuts. No idea what she expects from the final product but I guarantee she has no idea what makes a good video so she probably thinks it should turn out like the Grey's Anatomy wedding and she will blame ME when it doesn't. Speaking of which, crazy customer at work wants me to edit his crazy 9/11 tribute car documentary. Don't even ask. He comes to me at work to talk about it! I AM WORKING. GET A FREAKING EMAIL ADDRESS. I started watching Smallville and last night I saw the episode guest starring Christopher Reeve and I definitely did one of these when I saw his picture show up --> :D I really like the show. I want soooooo bad for Lex Luthor to turn out to be a good guy. It makes me so sad to think of his inevitable turn to the dark side! Okay. I think I've sufficiently made up for my week-long absence from the blogsphere. Good to be back. :) 7 rebels join?

Somebody save me [Tuesday October 13th, 2009 at 3:50am] [ mood | sleepy ] Weight: 175.2 lbs Activity: 6 hours at work Kcals burned: 2440 Kcals consumed: 2436 Kcal deficit: 4 Not much to report lately. Work has been boring boring boring. Screenplay is going well so far. *knock on wood* I still haven't heard back from my instructor, though. Starting to get really really nervous. I don't know whether to take his silence as a good sign or if he hasn't got my emails and he's going to humiliate me in front of the whole class next week or he has got my emails and he thinks it's a ridiculous idea and he's just saving this revelation so he can humiliate me in front of the whole class next week. Either way, that's a 2/3rds chance I'm gonna be humiliated next week. :/ My brand new computer keeps crashing. It's happened twice just today. >:( Going to work out tomorrow and then hang out with Mary and Amy and ARIA!!! Can't wait to see her, it's been waaaay too long! :D 5 rebels join?

If you held yourself up to the light [Saturday October 10th, 2009 at 2:55am] [ mood | good ] Weight: 175.4 lbs (one pound? I guess that's something) Activity: 5 hours at work Kcals burned: 2330 Kcals consumed: 1840 Kcal deficit: 490 I've been really bad about updating. I think it's cos I've been staying up really late so the clock on Calorie Count resets before I'm done eating for the day. Also I'm lazy. :P Speaking of staying up late, I have to be back at work at 8am for yet ANOTHER Apple training session. It wouldn't be such a big deal if there was something new to learn but this will be the third time I've been through the EXACT SAME training session. And the Apple Guy is really really OCD about it. If you don't repeat the demo exactly as he does it, he'll stop you and correct you. It's scripted and he wants it word perfect. Also I know all the demos by heart now but if you asked me about the hardware specs of the Apple computers, I'd have to look at the spec sheet. I feel like selling a Mac to a customer is sort of like lying to their face and pretending it's ok cos they don't know any better. :/ I emailed my instructor about switching my Capstone project to a screenplay he hasn't replied back yet. I'm starting to get nervous. I worked out Thursday AND Friday! Two days in a row! It was awesome! Watching the musical segments of Glee is a really good work-out activity. :P I also saw Zombieland on Friday. It was really good! I highly recommend it. BILL FUCKING MURRAY! Good night folks. :) 7 rebels join?

Ever since I woke up, I felt the net [Tuesday October 6th, 2009 at 2:53am] [ mood | anxious ] Weight: 176.4 lbs (didn't weigh today) Activity: 7 hours at work Kcals burned: 2440 Kcals consumed: 2000 Kcal deficit: 440 When was I supposed to be at work this morning? 10am. What time did I wake up? 11am. :| Not cool. My manager called and woke me up. I guess I turned off my alarm in my sleep. It's funny cos I immediately knew when I heard the phone ring that I had slept too late. I was one and a half hour late but my bosses were surprisingly cool about it. I apologized profusely, did some extra projects around the department, stayed an hour late, AND did pretty good with sales considering that we are literally out of stock on all but two computers and the netbooks... so I'm sure that helped. I'm thinking about switching my Capstone project to a screenplay. I mentioned this on Facebook, so you might've seen it if you've friended me there. Basically I just realized that every project I've worked on at ASU has been great in concept but then a failure in execution. And I think this is because I'm not good and leading people, nor am I good at taking on all the responsibilities of writer/producer/director/cinematographer/editor all by myself... and I also suck at asking for help. So a screenplay would be good cos I don't have to rely on anyone but myself. I just hope my instructor doesn't tell me it's too late to switch. And I need to come up with a good story. I have some good ideas for characters and an interesting situation to put them in, but no plot to move the story forward. If I can think of something by Wednesday, I'll roll with it. Wednesday will be good cos I will actually finally have time to work out, and I can get a lot of thinking done in that half hour on the elliptical. Well, better get to bed. Don't want a repeat of this morning's fiasco. :/ join?

Some sunny day [Friday October 2nd, 2009 at 2:24am] [ mood | tired ] Weight: 176.4 lbs (didn't weigh today) Activity: 30 mins on the elliptical Kcals burned: 2140 Kcals consumed: 1554 Kcal deficit: 586 I worked out today! And it felt really good. I think that's what my problem has been lately. I can't lose weight if I don't work out. So I am going to make sure I do that from now on. UGH but I have to work the next five days in a row. :( I'll have to find time/energy between shifts. My new computer is here!!! It has consumed my life the past two days. Today I installed the Bluray drive. Still trying to get it to work. And since I have to be at work at 9am tomorrow, even if I do get it working, I don't have time to watch a bluray on it cos I have to go to bed ASAP. :/ I tried to download the last episode of Supernatural cos my Tivo was a bitch and didn't record it, but the file I got has audio all out of sync so that was an epic disappointment. :( I will post pics of the new desktop tomorrow (I named it Spider) and a few details on my school project. Right now I just want to get this damn drive working so I can go to bed! 2 rebels join?

Drag me anywhere [Wednesday September 30th, 2009 at 2:49am] [ mood | annoyed ] Weight: 176.4 lbs (WHAT THE FUCK!?) Activity: nothing Kcals burned: 1770 Kcals consumed: 1895 Kcal deficit: +125 This is really starting to piss me off. I had planned on working out today but I started using my new NPH insulin and my blood sugar got so low, I didn't feel safe exerting myself in any way. My blood sugar was 22. I have never been that low without passing out. Miraculously, I got some orange juice and started to raise my blood sugar without getting weak or dizzy. But I ate a particularly high calorie breakfast before this happened with the assumption that I was going to have a nice work out to counteract it. And then I weigh myself and find that I've somehow GAINED weight!? I am just angry. I'm livid. I don't know what's going on and this just isn't fair. Under normal circumstances I wouldn't be worried about going over my calories today, but since having a daily ~500 calorie deficit isn't enough to get me to lose weight, I don't know what to think. All I can do is focus on controlling my blood sugar and trying to figure out if this new insulin is actually going to help me. 1 rebel join?

Waiting for the hint of a spark [Monday September 28th, 2009 at 9:21pm] [ mood | tired ] Weight: 175.2 lbs (haven't weighed myself since this) Activity: worked 7.5 hours Kcals burned: 2540 Kcals consumed: 1574 Kcal deficit: 966 I know. Two days in a row is pretty bad. But I have good excuses. Saturday night I didn't update because that was Supernatural Drinking Game Night and I was just too tired. I hadn't weighed myself that morning and my deficit was probably 0 so there wasn't much to report anyway. Except that fun times were had by all. :) Sunday I had a better excuse. My uncle Rodney passed away. I wasn't all that close to him but he was just a really really good man and he was way too young to die. He had a huge family who are all going to miss him terribly and thinking of their sadness just depressed the hell out of me. Especially my poor aunt. They were together most of their lives, and now he is gone. I don't even want to think about how sad that is. Today I just tried not to think about it full stop. Then I remembered that I was supposed to comment on my fellow classmates' scripts on Sunday. So I'm going to do that now and hopefully my grade isn't affected. I just want to curl up in a ball and go to sleep. I'm still debating whether or not to go to Tempe on Tuesday night and spend the night at Pam's house in Phoenix. The idea of watching True Blood on a big screen and chatting with the cinematographer is tempting, but the driving to Tempe, trying to find parking near the lecture hall, spending the night in a strange bed... not so keen. Buuuut I wouldn't have to wake up as early on Wednesday since my drive will be considerably shorter. *sigh* I can't decide. :/ Newest episode of Dollhouse was good. How I Met Your Mother, doubly so. Still haven't seen the newest Supernatural cos the Tivo didn't record it. Turns out it's on at the same time as The Office AND Grey's Anatomy so I'll just have to download it weekly. Sucks. join?

I'm so tired of learning to talk building fences on the wall [Friday September 25th, 2009 at 2:49am] [ mood | sleepy ] Weight: 175.2 lbs (sonofabitch!) Activity: No activity Kcals burned: 1770 Kcals consumed: 1639 Kcal deficit: 131 Well, I wanted to work out today. As it is, I did spend most of the day doing homework, so I wasn't my usual lazy self. I just need to make sure I finish that homework before midnight tomorrow night. It's taking me a lot longer than I expected. Good thing we got two extra days. :/ I also had an appointment with my Diabetes doctor today. He's putting me on a new insulin. Or an old insulin, depending on how you look at it. It's called NPH and I used to take it years and years and years ago. I'm talking 10+ years. We'll see how that goes. I've got to work the next four days in a row. Blegh. :( But, there will be a 24 hour break between two of the shifts so that's almost like having a day off. It will be filled with Supernatural drinking festivities. I'm looking forward to it. :) P.S. I have a hankering to go see the Christmas decorations at Disneyland this year. Amy, Mary, Meghan, Megan, anyone else in Arizona or California who might be reading this... you in? 2 rebels join?

You're dressed in white, my face is white [Thursday September 24th, 2009 at 2:04am] [ mood | sleepy ] Weight: 174.8 lbs (didn't weigh today) Activity: Very little if no activity Kcals burned: 1770 Kcals consumed: 1545 Kcal deficit: 225 Very very lazy day today. School went well. The new system appears to be working. Our teacher decided to give us an extra two days every week to upload our assignments. I had planned on coming home and doing all of that tonight but now that I've got the extra time... I did nothing. Ha I suck. But I've got all day off tomorrow except for a Doctor's appointment so I will not only do my homework, but I will also work out. Oh yes. I will make it happen! I decided on my Halloween costume. I'm going to stick with my original Star Trek uniform. I had considered a second idea that occurred to me on the way home from school today, but then I tried the Star Trek uniform on again when I got home and it's actually grown on me. I guess I have lost some weight since I bought it? The new idea will have to wait till next year... :P I was also surprised by a box from Dell when I got home today! It was just the wireless keyboard and mouse, but still! Now that they're here, I get a chance to get used to 'em before my new computer arrives. I'm still adjusting to the full-sized keyboard. I keep using the numbers on the top row instead of on the numeric pad! :P Also got my Educational Copy of Adobe CS4 Production Premium. It's an awfully simple box for such an expensive advanced software suite. I feel like it should burst open in a cascade of magic and rainbows and candy and unicorns for what I paid for it. I guess we'll see if it was worth it once it's installed. I can't wait!!! 4 rebels join?

I'm in love for the first time, and I know it's gonna last [Wednesday September 23rd, 2009 at 1:06am] [ mood | indescribable ] Weight: 174.8 lbs (+0.2 lbs? BOOO!!!) Activity: 5 hours at work Kcals burned: 2280 Kcals consumed: 1259 Kcal deficit: 1021 (I know, I know) I felt really really good on my way home from work today. I was listening to the Beatles' "Don't Let Me Down" and it just put me in a good mood. The weather was nice enough that my parents had the doors and windows open in the house when I got home. It smelled really good. :) My deficit is ridiculous today. I didn't wake up till 1pm though, so I probably didn't burn as many calories as my estimator says. The new system for my Capstone class is really adding on a lot more work for me. :( Every week I have to set aside extra time to read all my fellow students' scripts and film maker journals and then comment about them on this blog thing. And since I've been working more hours than usual this week, I just don't have enough time. I read two sets and skimmed over the last four. I feel bad about it, but I'm not going to limit myself to four hours of sleep over it. Next time I'll just have to be sure to set aside enough time to actually read all this ish before class and not be a lazy bitch. When I thought back to how I managed my time this past week instead of doing this homework, it totally killed the good mood I was in. I feel like I waste a lot of time in my life. I honestly spend a majority of my time watching tv. And it's usually TV shows or movies I've already seen. It's pathetic. I don't spend nearly enough time with my friends! It feels like I have NO SOCIAL LIFE WHATSOEVER. And my career goals are just... non-existent. I used to want to be a writer/director winning Academy Awards and shit. Now I'd be content editing segments for a local news affiliate. And I'm not even motivated enough to contact the local stations and ask them about internships/entry-level work. I'm not sure if I just have a problem with ambition/motivation or if there was some specific moment when my confidence decided to take a long walk off a short pier. I probably need to seek therapy for this. :/ 4 rebels join?

Of course, that measurement was from Sunday morning, so it might've gone up since then and I wouldn't know it. :/ But I will remain optimistic!!! Sorry I didn't post yesterday. There wasn't really much to report except the weight thing. I had a good deficit and a boring/long work day. Haven't had enough time to start on my Capstone homework. Need a first draft script by Wednesday night at midnight. I will do it! (If I sound convincing, maybe that'll make it true?) No, I must do it, therefore it shall be done!

"We are the ones who bump back."

Well, I got the "take it easy" part right. :P I figured I deserve a maintenance day. This week and next week are gonna be pretty non-stop as far as activity goes. I won't get another day off for a week. I did pretty much nothing today. Sat on the couch, watched the new Office, played Scribble Nauts, made waffles. Work tomorrow so I'd better start winding down and get ready for bed. Till next time! join?

It was never my intention to brag [Saturday September 19th, 2009 at 1:01am] [ mood | excited ] Weight: 176.4 lbs Activity: worked 6 hours Kcals burned: 2390 Kcals consumed: 1834 Kcal deficit: 556 I know I didn't post yesterday. There wasn't much to report really. My weight hadn't changed, my deficit was just over 500 kcals, and I woke up feeling really really crappy and thought maybe I was coming down with something. But I'm feeling much better today. My suspicions about the weight gain were correct. So hopefully I'll even out again in a few days. I have the day off tomorrow so I plan on working out and otherwise taking it easy. I ordered my new computer last night!! It won't get here till October 2nd but I was so psyched that I bought the monitor and a new printer at work today. Spent the evening after work setting them up. Printed some new pictures to replace some of Roger's baby pictures I had in frames around my room. They were starting to fade, and it was time to get some more recent pics up. Looking at the photos around my room, you'd think Roger was still a year old. :P The new monitor is quite simply, KICK. ASS. 23 inches of pure shiny. I'm completely in love with it. I tried to set up the external TV tuner with my laptop but it got dangerously close to overheating so I'm not gonna try it again for a while. It came with a nifty adapter so that I can plug in composite video/audio cables which means I could plug my PS2 into my computer and view it through the monitor. Or even RECORD my game play. Not that I'd ever have any reason to do that, but it's cool to have the ability. :P Anyway. Gonna watch a movie on the Awesomonitor before bed. :) join?
