Uncle Joe!

Hey all..

Well, after Nicole and I got back home last night from a scary trip to Wal-mart, Susan and Eric called to inform us that Susan is going to have a baby! Way Cool! Between that and Carlos Y's #2 baby on the way, it might be that both babies are going to be due around mid-late June 2006... SO - it looks like another CA trip for Nicole and I next year!. Good thing I have some miles on my A-West card still...

Other news - I got killed on my exam#1 for Math. I havent seen the results, but lets just say it was NOT easy.

The scary movie weekend is going to be Saturday night - we have some movies via netflicks to include: Poltergeist, The Faculity, and Silver Bullet. We also have Scream and Sleepy Hollow, so plenty to pick from for Nicoles movie weekend thingy she wants to do. I personnelly dont care for any of those movies and have seen them already except Faculity. Who knows..

Otherwise, the oil companies release thier 3rd quarter profits today so let see how much you can piss off Uncle Joe...

WOW- Took the warrior to Brill and with Nicole's mage and Wayne's priest, we are running Scarelt Monostary quests. We almost got thru the library last night, but someone used Fear (cough cough Wayne..) and agro'd 6 more baddies and wipped us badly. I can handle 2-3 at once, not 6-8 and without heals.

Congrats to Eric and Susan on thier 'scheck-lett' as my Uncle Rich said :D

Mid October Scares :o

Hey all,
Things have been going alot better.. but busy as usual - where to start:

BATMAN BEGINS is out :D :D :D

I loved this movie! Go see it, rent it, buy it..
Forget about the other movies that had the name Batman in it. This one blows em all away.

Eric had a birthday - big 3.0; I got him the Pirates xbox game:
He got me a wireless headset for xbox; so we are itchin for some gametime.

Susan's is around the corner; we have a few ideas, but wanna run em buy Eric 1st.

HOME: We have a condo ass meeting tomorrow, and our windows are in the proposal. They should go thru, as it meets all the requirments. The carpenter is good and will be coming out to re-measure this Saturday so we can go order the windows. From there, its 2-3 weeks and it looks like mid-November when we put them in.

This weekend I also get to clean out the storage unit, wash and wax the truck, clean the house, and try and build a computer for Tony.. on top of studying for school.

Then we are going to have a scarymovie next weekend - :o
Films include:
Scream, Shinning, Saw, and a few others.. Nicole is inviting her cousins over and anyone else that wants to join us. I am not big on the scary movie thing.. but if it makes Nicole happy, then thats all that matters.

WOW: After the latest patch, things are starting to stablize. I will be looking for updated mods (Auctioneer, tracking, etc..) and hopefully there are new ones out too. My main guy is doing the Sithilus quests and the warrior is about to start the SM quests and instances. Nicole hit 36 so she is primed for SM.

SCHOOL: Drexel finally got my financial aid stuff in; I got a letter, did the Master Promise Note, and submitted it to the website. I hope that all goes in and working by the end of the month. I have 2 tests next week - Diff EQ and logic gates. yea :P
I take the Amtrak 2 times a week - and I hate missing the 8:30 train, cause the next one is at 9:50pm. Thats a long wait at 30th st station, with all the lovely peole that live there...

Fantasy Football is going good; im one of 2 teams that is 5-1, alot of the others are 4-2 and the rest are all below that. This week I play Carlos Molina, so that should be fun :D

Anniversary #2

Nicole and I celebrated our 2nd anniversary yesterday! Since both of us had monday off, we went to her favorite place, UNO's, and had pizza and a dessert. She loves the necklace I got her and she baked a nice cake this weekend for my mom's birthday and out anniversary :D

Here is a pic of the necklace :


Thank you everyone for sending us a card - which was our parents and my sister.

Another post shortly :D

Birthday!

Hey gang.. Well its my birthday! Yea for me :D Got several calls from friends and family; too many to call back when I got back from Drexel last night. Thank YOU! for everyone that send me a card and/or an email :D For those that forgot.. Santa remembers... :P

My light saber collection is going well:
masterreplicas

So far, I have 7 total: Darth Sidious, Obi-wan Kenobi (Ep2), Obi wan kenobi (ep4), Yoda, Darth Maul, Anakin Skywalker- "pre evil" (ep3) and now with bday money: Darth Tiranous as seen here



Drexel is going well, except the financial issues - STILL no word from the FASFA people on my status.. and I'm into week 2 now. I have Diff EQ which looks hard and has alot of unique terms, but isnt too bad (yet) and Logic/ intelligent systems, which looks like AND and OR gates - which Ive had in the Navy :D Taking the Amtrak is the way to go - 30 minutes and Im at 30th and Market - no traffic or anything :D The wait isnt bad and I get to read a book, study the material or goof off without driving...

Dad's Visit was good! No problems on the airport and the wheelchair service was the way to go. The trip started off with a trip to the VA Hospital! HE forgot his Diabetes test kit and insuline = BAD. SO, we went on Saturday morning and spent about 4 hours to get the prescriptions to get the shots, the test strips and everything else. After that, it was no problems - WE visited the USS New Jersey and had alot of fun! Also, my friend Wayne and his family took us to Washington DC - we saw the Korean War memorial, the Lincole Mem, The Vietnam mem., and the WW2 memorial. All were very nice and well done - The new ones for me were the Korean and the WW2.. A lot of pictures and some can be seen here:

Thank you Wayne for bringing us down there - We had alot of fun.


WOW - Havent played for weeks now - I got on for an hr here and there, but nothing like an instance in over 2 weeks now; Ihate it. MY warrior is doing good - I need to clean up some quests and I'll be ready for SM quests. Nicole is now lvl 35 so she is ready to go. I need to get her to clean up her quest logbook and clear it out of garbage quests.. so hopefully we can play later tomorrow night and maybe thru the week :D

TIRES: I need new tires - I asked my father-in-law to talk with his connections about 265/70R16 size tires; he gave me a number and told me 3 prices on 3 sets of tires - the only ones that might be good were a set of Goodyear Wranglers - BUT there are many different flavors of them; CE, AT, AT-X, MT... so I called the connection and am waiting for a response - If I get nothing by the end of the week - off to Sams club I go for these babies

I got class tonight and gotta get back into the grind of things.. Hopefully we can get some food shopping done and also clean up the house a bit; My mom aka INSPECTOR comes down this weekend with her bodyguard, George :D
