Congrats on the PowerBook! I recently just picked up a G4 1.33ghz PowerBook as well. What are the specs of yours? Mine doesn't have the backlit :(

Mines a 1.5 GHz. Gig of RAM, 80GB HDD, good stuff.

However, It's time and a half, so all is good.

Oh and on an unrelated note, GO LAKERS!

Ehh.. Okay I guess.. Bored, procrastinating on doing laundry. I just picked up Alien Syndrome for the PSP (Was a huge fan of this game on the Sega Master System when I was about 5 years old)

It's a lot of fun, killingh ords of aliens, in an arcade-style shooter :)

How's everybody's Memorial Day weekend going so far?

Right now, I'm sitting here listening to the sounds of my deck being rebuilt by a bunch of contractors. When they finish, it will be 10x20 instead of 10x10 - I can't wait to get out there and barbecue (too bad it won't be finished this weekend).

I'm trying to beat Medal of Honor: vanguard on my Wii. The last level is hard because usually if you die, you restart at the last checkpoint. Most level's have at least 5. This one is very long, and has two. I was frustrated because I kept getting slaughtered by about 10 guys who run through a door and fire at the same time, and because it took a very long time to get to that point, so yeah, here I am. :p

It's been a really rough week at work. Good thing is, I got another raise. Think I'm just going to chill at home and geek out and be lazy for the memorial weekend.
How's everyone else doing?

I'm bored now.
I was outside like all day today.
Kinda burnt, but it was SO nice out.
Okay, my mom refused to drive me to the music store. I needed one of those things, which for some reason the name escapes me. It holds the music on my Trumpet while I play in the parade.
Well, she was somehow convinced that I must have had one of those before and I lost it, even though I didn't. So she refused to take me because of gas, and she thinks my band teacher should have one, even though he has no reason to have one, and he doesn't.
I can't memorize both those pieces in one day. So i'll just be guessing the notes during the parade, great.
And i'm at the end.
Real nice.
How annoying.

Nice Derek!
I don't know what's different about it, but nice!

iRye-You should sell your iMac to someone on the forums, just so you can see if it just hates you or if it's a bad Apple. ;)
It would make me laugh if whoever buys it has no problems.

Anyway, I LOVE the name Sergei. It's so unique. It can be a part of my mental list of baby names.
Sergei and his sister Aurora. lol.
I'd have to think of a lot more names, since I want a big family. Well, 2 boys 2 girls. Maybe more.

I don't know why i'm thinking about kids, I still am one!

I must say though, I think weird people (me) make the BEST PARENTS!

I look forward to making my kids weird.

Okay, try to wait until someone else has posted to say something, but it's an abnormal hour (at leat on my time zone) on a busy weekend.


I've been having breathing problems.
It's
SO
FREAKIN'
ANNOYING!
It's so hard to explain!
Like, in my throat. WHen I inhale, I feel like there's something blocking the air in my throat. I can breathe, but it feels sort of like i'm snoring or something. Then if I keep inhaling for a second or two, it...changes.

I'm not even going to try to describe it. I don't think about it when i'm busy, but when i'm just sitting here I can't stop doing it. I'm constantly doing it.

After a while it REALLY hurts my chest when I inhale deeply. I like have to breathe really shallow.

It's SO ANNOYING, it's just as annoying that I can't explain it.
I just wish it would stop!

:(

I sprayed it dayglo orange and then proceeded to wear parts of the finish down.

A "relic" style paint job.
