I got my garden in the ground finally......my poor orange pepper plant isnt doing too well....i think it got over watered....it seems to have shriveled up a bit....so hopefully laying off the water for awhile will make it bounce back...the corn is doing great, as is everything else i put in......I bought a new preamp for my turntable..haven't hooked it up yet..but will soon...i also bought, or i should say finally found, Sinatra at the sands on vinyl...affordable copy finally...amazing the price of vinyl nowadays..i also bought Ronny James Dio's first album, from 1984..on vinyl...still waiting for that to arrive.....a lot of big news coming out of the E# show last week....specifically the new ps4 design was finally revealed, and specs on the new Xbox 0ne.....i would never buy a Microsoft product, and i will definitely NOT be buying one of those...the ps4 however..looks pretty intriguing......Nintendo announced a bunch of new games..but didn't debut the new Zelda U......which is a little disappointing..they did however mention a new Mario, so not a total loss......i finally decided to get new super Mario bros Wii, which I am awaiting the arrival of...i want to start playing, again, xenoblade chronicles on my Wii.. i started when i first got it, but haven't really had time, but i am going to make time now if it kills me....I'm almost done with the wheel of time series of books..I'm about 90% done with towers of midnight, second to last book....i read pretty much every night..but when I'm done with this series, I'm going to take a break from reading and play some mindless video games.....and speaking of..again...I am hoping the ps3 and wii-u will both come down in price this holiday season, then maybe i can get one or the other...maybe.....depends what games are out for the wii-u of course......and maybe the debut of the ps4 will make sony lower the price of the ps3.....its around 250.00 right now....i think 199.99 would make me get one....we'll see......I got a new desk....well, a new, used desk...its bigger than the one i had before..i cant open the filing cabinet now..but oh well.....such is life...so be it......i needed a bigger desk for my Amiga 1200.....you should have seen it....i had to bring it in through the window..lol!!!! I had to wedge it in just right so it wouldn't slide back out, then run into the house and grab it and pull it in..not easy..but got it done! it was only 20 bucks at work! good deal fro such a solid desk..and it has hole sin top that are made for a hutch! maybe someday!!! we had a customer who needed a small computer desk, when that one came in i bought it and ran it home then unloaded and brought my smaller desk in, and thankfully the guy bought my desk! I paid 12.00 bucks for it about 3 years ago..and sold it for 20!!! what a deal!!! so everyone was happy! all i need now is some new ram for my a1200 and it'll be good to go...then i can bring it out of the closet and get er set up!!! cant wait....theres a place on ebay that still makes 72 pin simms, at a good price..so i'll be ordering soon......as you may have noticed by the titel of this post, its fathers day......glasd my folks are still around.....although, their health isnt too good so who knows how long theyll be around....gotta make the best of it while they an i still can.....i just made potato salad and mom made a cheesecake, and I am going to grill some nice steaks tonight.....fun day will be had by all.....and as soon as i'm done with laundry, I'll have fun!
