I Love Snow

This is how my car looked on Sunday before I cleaned off all the snow that had fallen that weekend.

Happy Hump Day

Today went by pretty fast at work, I stayed busy working on a few things and had a quote come in right before I left. I cranked it out and sent up the stuff I had to before I left so I should be able to finish it up in the morning when I get to work.

I'm pretty suprised that while its been really slow all week I have not yet gone home early. I'm thinking/hoping that Saturday I'll be able to get out early. It will be my Birthday and I do need to celebrate it.

I packed up my spacebags tonight and sucked the air out of them and they worked pretty well. With getting rid of a lot of stuff and using the space bags I was able to free up some room. Pretty much everything I had in the closet and under my bed now all fits under my bed.

Before I packed up the spacebags I watched a couple episodes of "One Tree Hill." I'm going through my OTH collection and started fresh with season 1 and tonight I finished up disc 4 and have 2 left to watch. Then I'll move onto season 2.

I've also been keeping up to date with the video game podcasts. My new favorite podcast is the Rebel FM podcast that is former EGM/1up people. It sucks what happened to them all but its a great listen to check out.

Well I'm about to go play some video games. I'm either gonna play some GTAIV on the PS3 or Sally's Salon on the DS. Sally has been getting all my attention lately. Its a cheesy time management diner dash type game but i'm really addicted to it. Right now I'm trying my hardest to get 15 people through my shop and all my chairs upgraded.

Will the Space Bags Work?

I picked up a couple sets of Space Bags yesterday at work. I have a bunch of shirts I want to pack up and figured the bags would be the best way to store them without taking up all the space. I had planned on folding all the clothes and then pack them up in the bags but I didn't get that far. I have everything folded but then it got to be 10pm and I wanted to catch "The Real Housewives of Orange County." Tomorrow night I'm gonna suck the air out of the bags and see how well they work.

We got a few more inches of snow today so tonight when I got home from work I shoveled the driveway. It wore me out. The worst part of the driveway was the end where all the snow from the road is thrown into the driveway by the snowplow. That snow was heavy and a pain. It took mu just under an hour to shovel it all.

Tomorrow I have to go into work an hour early for our department meeting and then tomorrow night I have to do more cleaning at home.

Sweet Deal at Target

I had to run to Wal-Mart and Target today after work to pick up a few things. At Wal-Mart I snagged my free Monday rental from redbox. When I get finished up writing this I'm gonna watch "Pineapple Express" and work on the blog. I also had to pick up a couple 100 calorie oreo snacks for a friend. I was hoping that Wal-Mart would have Target price matched on Mtn Dew this week but they didn't so I had to stop by Target. The last few weeks Targets had the collector's edition of GTAIV on clearance for $60 and then $40. The price was too high for me to pick it up then. When I got to Target I decided to make the usual loop and checked out the clearance rack in clothing and nothing then I swung through electronics and they still had the CE GTAIV's but this time the were marked down to $22 so I picked up a copy. $20 for a $90 game is a pretty good deal. The edition is packaged in a black metal lock box and inside is the game, a soundtrack, art book, duffel bag and keychain. I then made my way to the food section and picked up $3 24oz six packs. At the check out I realized I had the stereo-typical gamer haul of dew and a game. All I needed to round out the picture were some Dorito's and Pizza Rolls or Hot Pockets.

Sounds like we have a nice winter storm heading towards us. They say on TV were going to get 4-6" dumped on us in the next 24 hours and the winds are going to blow and temps are going to drop. Joy....I'm so sick of winter weather. I know I'll be shoveling the driveway when I get home from work tomorrow.

Time to watch my free rental of "Pineapple Express."

A Quick Post

This weekend went by really fast as usual. We got dumped on with snow. I think my car had a good 10" on it today when I cleaned it off. I figured I would brush all the snow off today so I wouldn't have to do it tomorrow morning before work.

I'm gonna stay up a little bit tonight and watch "Jesus Camp" on Netflix on XBox360 and do some work here on the blog. I'm gonna try to figure out all the workings so I can get this customized to how I want it.

Yay for new Disney Blu-Ray in 2009

Disney has announced some releases for 2009 on Blu-Ray and its pretty sweet. TVshowsonDVD.com has the whole press release. I would say the best parts are Disney is going to be releasing some of the DVD's in a combo package like they did with "Sleeping Beauty" with a standard DVD and Blu-Ray in one box. The movies I'll be picking up on Blu are High School Musical and HSM:3(Feb 17), and "A Bug's Life" and "Monster's Inc." and "Pinocchio" and "Snow White."

The snow has made its ugly return to the area. It started last night when I went to bed I noticed a light layer of snow outside then this morning when I went to work I had a couple of inches on my car to clean off. It snowed off and on all day but nothing too bad but were supposed to get more snow over night and tomorrow. I think somewhere in the range of 3-6 inches. I hope its not too bad because nasty winter weather leads to very slow days at work. Luckily it was kinda nice today and I was able to get some really nice sales. Its been a while since I had days like today.

I think tomorrow night I'm gonna take down my Christmas tree. I've been needing to take it down but just haven't been able to get in the mood. Hopefully tomorrow night will get me in the mood.

The other night I decided to forward my old domain to the blog. Rossatron.com now links to here. Its been so long since I've used the name but I kept it registered to me for future use and I guess now is the time to get it back in use. I now need to get back into html coding so I can really get this place looking like me.

I Finally Cashed in my Tickets

I've gathered a small collection of scratch off lotto tickets in my room and finally today got around to cashing them in. Most of them were only worth a couple of dollars but I had one worth $10. I stopped by Meijer after work to return my redbox movie and then cashed in the tickets for $23.

Work started out busy this morning for me but then I finished up all the work I had to do so then I spent the rest of the day trying to keep busy. I hope I get something to do tomorrow or its going to be a long day. I have to be in an hour early for a department meeting.

Last night I rented "The Happening" from redbox and I have to say I was pretty dissapointed with the movie. I was hoping it was going to be a lot better but I thought it was pretty stupid. Luckily for me it was my free monday rental from redbox.

I have to get to bed early tonight. The last couple of nights I've gone to bed and then laid in bed and played "Build a Lot" on my DS until 1ish. Tonight I'll have to go to bed and get sleep.
