Wandering: One Geek's Odyssey











{October 30, 2009}   I’m Back Bitches

I has access to the webzes!!! Admittedly, it is at a friend’s house, but you know what… I feel the happy glow of technology once again! ZOMG! I have missed this!

<sniffles of joy>

Eeeppp! I just had a thought. What if I’m too rusty to continue? What if the creative juices have dried up? What if I am just a husk of my former self and have nothing even remotely amusing to share with the uncaring masses of pixels on this screen? Fear has paramalyzed me…

Wait. Courage just kicked in. Booyah!

It is almost the greatest day of the whole wide year, so I really hope that everyone is pimpin’ out. I have seen some stellar outdoor decorations and killer pumpkins. No. Seriously. The pumpkins tried to kill me. I have the wounds to prove it. Why do the gourds want to destroy me? I mean, just because I carve their flesh with impish glee and roast their innards before their newly made eyes doesn’t really equate to a good reason to fight back. Little upstarts.

Anyway, it’s time to prepare for an awesome evening. Bring on the knives, candles, and gut scrapers! Here’s a goody-goody gumdrop for the tricker-treaters in the audience.



{July 7, 2009}   Intarwebz

Still no internet at home and the free laptop has been reclaimed by the family unit. Which leaves me with a desktop I cannot plug in.

<sigh>

Needless to say, the blog won’t be getting updated for a long, long while.

At least not until someone helps pitch in for me a new laptop. : )



{June 28, 2009}   New Toys!

And no, they are not of the X rated variety.

As I am certain some of you know, I have an amazing hatred of alarm clocks. I broke mine yesterday. The pimp hand came up and there is only one way the pimp hand can come down. KABOOM! The alarm clock is no more. So off to Target I went. It also happened to give me a great excuse to get out of mowing the lawn in the middle of the day.

Now, I could have gotten something normal. But that just would not have been me. The toy section always holds more appeal than housewares. These are the newest additions to my bedroom!

Lamp And Clock By Tiger Toys

Aren’t they cute!? They interact with each other. Because they are bestest friends. When the batteries get low, their eyes glow red. Very evil of them. The ones I own are actually spring/granny smith apple green. I actually went in for just the clock, but I had to have the lamp so they wouldn’t get lonely.

The alarm functions are pretty neat. Just before the clock goes off, it lights up in a gentle glow to ease you out of sleep. When you don’t wake up and it’s time for the alarm to go off, the mouth springs open, the music starts (radio or your mp3 player), and his arms start beating up and down. Hopefully, I will have mercy on this cute thing. They smile and make little noises when you pet them. They also light up to the beat of whatever tunes you have them hooked into. 

I have no clue what all the lamp does yet. Details will follow when possible.

The best part of all, Target has them on clearance! I always did like Tiger Toys. Now I can express my undying affection in a way that will make my proper mother mad for weeks. I bet she’ll really love that I’m going to have them next to my robot flower pot. ^_^
