Another year gone

Yesterday I turned 25, it was a pretty anticlimactic day overall, I got to sleep in and had a nice dinner with my family. I finally upgraded my old 13in. TV to a nice 20in. RCA TrueFlat TV so I can actually read word on screen and enjoy movies in stereo sound. I don’t feel any older I guess but I feel the approach of 30 a little stronger maybe. I hope everyone is well, I’m going to try and get some sleep and update the site some more. :)

Happy Thanksgiving

I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving if you celebrate this particular holiday and to wish you a good day if you do not. I’ll be spending today with my family and just generally relaxing while plotting my moves for my “Black Friday” sales purchases. Will anyone else be joining me? :)

Chocolate ‘cuts blood clot risk’

A small amount of dark chocolate a day can thin the blood and cut the risk of clots in much the same way as taking aspirin, US researchers have said.

Hey, does this mean that its ok for me to indulge me chocolate addiction? ;) Seriously, I bet in a few months we will have a study that says the exact opposite but hey it is an interesting idea none the lass. What do you think about these types of medical surveys?

Server move complete! Did you notice?

It looks like I won’t be able to afford this dedicated server we are paying for, luckily my friend Andy is letting me host for awhile on his box over at Through some DNS fiddling and the use of rsync everything went off extremely well. :) Please let me know if there are any hiccups.!
