*yawn* Ive been so bored lately, I cant stand it. I used to be able to amuse myself for hours and hours on end with Neverwinter Nights. Ive played through the official campaign several times now though and its gotten kind of old. Ive tried some of the games regular people make and put out for download and most of them suck. *sigh* The expansion pack doesnt come out until June 17th. They said it was to come out in the Spring, fucking bastards, its coming out 4 days before the first fucking day of summer. Spring my big fat ass.
Were planning to take Sara to the beach this weekend. NONE of the fucking beaches in CT allow dogs. CT is actually one of the most dog unfriendly states. Were taking her to Rhode Island, they allow dogs on all public beaches during off season. Labor Day to Memorial Day, Most of Maines beaches are the same way. Most beaches everywhere used to allow dogs but all the wonderful inconsiderate people in this world ruined it for those of us that will keep our dogs leashed and clean up any messes the dog makes.
Were also hoping to invest in a little pool for Sara to swim in. And for us to cool off in too of course. Its pathetic at like 10′ Dia. x 30″ High, but better than nothing. Itll be fun for her. Once we have some money someday well buy a REAL pool.
So, what else? I just talked to my mom who is job hunting. With our economy the way it is this isnt the time to be job hunting but when you get laid off theres not much else you can do. My mom kind of makes me nuts when shes job hunting. Shes good at depressing everyone around her. Dont dare make the mistake of saying you wish you could find a better job because youll get an ear full about how you should be thankful you even have a job. *sigh*
I got a new mouse at work. Strangely enough my right mouse button quit working on Friday so I had to call for a new one yesterday. I got the new one today and its one of those optical ones. I havent really decided if I like it yet or not. I dont really like the shape of it, but maybe itll grow on me. It works nicely but its really sensitive. Matter of fact as I type the arrow is slowly moving across the screen because the mouse is moving a tiny bit on the keyboard tray.
Not much else going on. Ive been doing a lot of thinking but nothing I want to write about yet. Ive got some ideas on things I could write about but I need time to pull my thoughts together otherwise Ill have random people leaving me rude notes. 🙂 People will probably leave me rude notes anyway though.
I have an optical mouse here at home and I cordless regular mouse at the office. I prefer the optical, and am looking into buying a cordless optical. If dogs were banned from the beaches in Chicago, there would be an uprising such as Mayor Daley has never dealt with in his 347 years in office. There is a HUGE brouhaha now over leash laws in the city parks. Chicago is a VERY doggy city.
