Friday!!!

Its finally friday, I never thought this day would evr come..its been a long week for some reason...after my long winded post yesterday I'm not sure I have anything left to say...lets see...I didnt paint yesterday, I decided it was too hot...dad did most of it..I'm going to paint a closet today...my puny contribution...Its very overcast right now which means its a bit cooler for a change...thankfully...After searching ebay for days, Ive decided I'm going to buy a brand new subwoofer, so its goting to take awhile longer to save up for it...Christmas anyone? until next time...

(I'm still accepting donationsd by the way ;) )

This week has flown by....

I apologize for not posting regularly this week, I just realized it was thursday while I was wheeling the trash out to the street at 6 this morning...lets see...right now, Mom and dad are painting and fixing up moms home office, she decided to paintit "sea foam" it looks more like an off mint green to me. I got to dissassemble her computer and everything so they can move the desk today, I'm probably going to be painting the last wall when I get home tonight...oh joy...nah, I enjoy painting when they let me... I decided to take the plunge and I found screaming deals on a center channel speaker and a subwoofer on ebay...I got the center channel speaker ok, its an older kenwood, very heavy and solidly built, I got it for like 30 bucks..great deal, I also got the subwoofer yesterday...of course, only after it shipped did i find out I cant use it...I need a powered subwoofer with rca style connectors, not like I got, with spring loaded wire clamps...I am going to keep it for now cause I may be able to use it on my older receiver if I ever get the chance to need it...also, when I opened the box I found a white subwoofer insteadof a black one as he had listed...I'll look over the listing again, but I'm pretty sure he didnt mention it was actually white...No biggie tho... but I still need a subwoofer, I found one on newegg or a good price, and I found the needed cables on ebay for a good price, so I am goingto save up and get those in the near future, in the meantime, hopefully this weekend I'll at least got the center speaker and bluray player player setup, and I'll ad the subwoofer at a letr date...I also need a new remote for my receiver because the one I have half the buttons suddenly stopped working, I aimed it at my video camera and got no signal from around half of the buttons. In case you all are wondering, if you aim any remote at a video camera, you can see the transmitter in the end o the remote flashing...the naked eye cant see it but a video camera can... If any of you have a video camera and need to check a remote, now you know how...no flashing means dead button...or dead batteries :P I'm itching to play mario galaxy 2 again, I really havent had time... but I'm goign to make time...perhaps test my new center speaker by playing...who knows.... ALSO..speaking of my bluray player, I foud out...too late as always, that my TV cant do HD...I was under the mistaken impression it could do 720p through the component video inputs...only to open the user manual and find out its not true....So now I eed to save up fro a new TV...Ive got my eye on a 37" led lcd vizio that goes for around 600 bucks...by the time I have enough money together It'll no doubt be cheaper...(If anyone of you would like to donate to the "buy Rocky a new big lcd led tv charity fund" email me and i'll give you my email address and paypal account info :P ) Also #2, Larry, my best friend told me about this new universal remote he got from newegg, it goes for around 80 bucks, I think it would be a good investment, seeing as it never gets obsolete, you can hook it to a USB port and upgrade the firmware and download the latest code lists..something else to save up for... the Rocky tv charity fund is also taking donations for the new remote charity fund...;) ALSO #3...I come up for the "new every 2" program through verizon, I'm hoping to get the newest droid at a screaming price...sheesh...Ive got a lot of stuff to save up for...Ah Hell...jus send me all your money and we'll work ou the charuity details later =) until next time...

Happy fathers Day all...

Greetings all, its once again fathers day, and once agian I plan to make it the best day possible for me Dad, seeing as his health is such that he may not be with us much longer, I try to make everyday enjoyable..tho I often fail at it..oh well. We are going to BBQ, and moms going to make his favorite lunch..Chorizo and eggs, we got him some nice gifts he'll enjoy, hopefully, and I'm going to try to finish my chores early so we can have some together time...until next time...

Thursday? whered the week go?

WOW..once again I didnt post daily o this blog, so I'll try to make up for that...I finally got a subwoofer and center channel speaker for my home theatre...they are both on their way as I type, I won them both on ebay...they are older kenwood speakers, but I have an older kenwood receiver so it works out well, the speakers were bundled with my receiver when it was new so I know they will work fine... I went on a cleaning frenzy in my room last night..got a lot cleaned up and dusted etc...in anticipation to my speakers arriving then I can get the blueray hooked up and all the speakers..assuming I can find a place for the subwoofer, Its freakin huge... I sold another jewelry piece yesterday, a turquoise nugget ona chain..I shipped it this morning...woo hoo!! I'm on a roll =) my next project is to finish organizing the closet, It looks like its half empty now seeing as i got rid of so much crap...I'll probably work on that tonight...until next time...

Lovely Sunday

Yes, tis sunday once again...or more accurately...Sunday evening...and I actually got something accomplished today...yay! I got got done with the first stage of closet cleaning today....I got rid of a munc of crap and am ready for stage 2, rearranging and hopefully making alot more room...I rthink I'm finally going to do some serious rennovsating and rearrainging and downsizing...Ive got so much crap its unbelievable...So I think I'mon a roll...also..about my new blueray player...my TV is starting to go out..the component video inputs are no longer working and the screen is generally slightly fuzzy all of a sudden..its barely noticeable, but its slightly fuzzy and seems to be getting fuzzier every time I turn the thing on...sigh...now Ive got to save up for a new TV. I'm going to get an HD LCD of course..Just not sure which brand...whichever one is cheapest ;) My folks have a vizio that I really like...its only 60 htz tho, I think since I'm going to have HD, directv as well as blue ray I should get 120htz at least, they have 240 but those are out of my price range... and if all goes well, I'm goig to upgrade our(my and my folks) directv to HD finally so they can take advantage of their hdtv finally =) I probably wont have a new TV at that time..but it wont be long after...I'm guessing Christmas...It'll bea nice christmas present for myself =) until next time...

oh well...

Here I am again..at work on a Saturday...oh well, so be it...nothing to exciting to report...I actually got up early enough this morning to get a shower and have coffee and english muffins...I rarely get up earlier than I nned to...at least I got to see my elderly Neighbor cleaning the ditch by my rear gate...why he felt he had to do that is beyond me....maybe because his ditch is emmaculate and he didnt like seeing the normal plant growth in my ditch..I dunno.... until next time...

Its friday woo-hoo!!...yeah right...:\

Well well, friday once again, where does the week go....its been an unusually long week for me this week, what with waiting for my new Bluewray player to arrive, which it did yesterday afternoon, I dont have it hooked up yet, maybe this weekend..we'll see. I finally found a center chane; speaker for my system, its an older Kenwood, with 4 inch woofers and a good sized tweeter...good enough for the small room its going to be in, they used to bundle the receiver I have with the speaker I just bought off of ebay so I know itll work well...I'm cureently looking for a subwoofer on ebay...they are not much cheaper than new ones so I may just buy a new one...I dunno yet...I actually got to got for a bike ride last Saturday....It felt really good to be on the open road again, even tho it was in my own neighborhood..I'll go lot farther as the summer progreses...I talked to my buddy Larry yesterday and wished him a happy 46th birthday..he just got a new black lab puppy so he has his hands full now....until next time...

Once again....Monday

Graphics for Monday Comments

Yep, Its once again...MONDAY!! OH JOY.... I managed to wash the dogs this weekend and do laundry..pretty much what I always do on the weekends...as you can tell...I have no life... sigh....I am excited, however, that my new bleray player will be here thursday...my old cheaep-o dvd player finally died so I decided an upgrade was in order....I got a screaming deal on a pioneer blueray, practically half price!! so I cant complain. I have one blueray disc right now....Avatar...and I have decided that from now on, when I buy a movie..it will be a blueray disc instead of a DVD..f course theres some older movies and TV shows not available on blueray yet....but 99 percent of new movies I acquire will be bluerays...other than that... I finally received Maruio Galaxy 2, I've almost completed Mario Galaxy 1, I'm at Bowsers final reactor so I decided to take a break and start Mario Galaxy 2 and then work on beatig mario 1 later....because from what I understand, the game doesnt just end when Bowser is defeated, you can still go back and collect whatever powerstars you missed before..so Its a pretty anticlimactic ending from what I understand...also, I need to get through Zelda: twilight princess on WII before the new Zelda comes out later this year or early next year...I beat Twilight princess on Gamecube, but not WII yet....so I have my work cut out for me.....oh well...until next time...

gees...

wow, I haent posted in 5 days...I'm slipping..oh well, things are getting a bit busier at work...a good thing I guess...Its getting hotter and hotter here..I'm sweating my ass off sitting here typing this...I helped mom plant a tree today, Colorado Blue something...tho it really doesnt look blue...oh well, mom fell getting out of the hole...bu she is ok...I managted to wash both dogs yesterday, and today, i'm trying to finish my laundry...what a life eh?....until next time...

been awhile...sorry..honestly....

Its been awhile since Ive blogged and I apologize...but I had to work the WHOLE memorial day weekend, and it annoyed me to no end...I was in too bad a mood toblog..so there... So I did absolutely nothing exciting...my garden is going well, dog are doing well......getting closer and closer to beating mario galaxy...I'll have mario galaxy 2 by friday, and hopefully I'll be done with part 1 so I can start playing part 2...other than that...I bought some margarita mix and tequila so I can have a margarita when I get home tonight...assuming I'm not going to walmart...which I think I am...oh well..so be it... until next time...
