Jenova's Witness

*falls out of the chair laughing*

Update: Martin's on his way home with Mom. They're not 100% sure if it was a mini-stroke or just a massive migraine, but the numbness in his face is receding. Mom will be with him until he can see the doctor, so she can make sure they know the family history.

I may not be around much for the next little while. My older half-brother Martin, who's 41, had a mini-stroke overnight and is in the hospital. My mom is on the way up there, but if it turns into a long-term hospital stay, I'll need to go up there and help with Josh and Caleb (5 and 4). I'll keep everyone informed.

Friday morning I went into the attic to open the vents, and grabbed a box that hadn't been claimed in 5 years. Finding nothing in there I wanted, I threw the box and everything in it into the trash.

Two days later, there's been no incriminations, no sudden calls and "Hey, I want to come by and get X". I think I'll press my luck with another box. :-p

Well, my cell phone battery won't hold a charge longer than 6 or so hours, so I guess I'm heading to the Verizon store after work to see what (if anything) they can (or will) do for me...

Or I'll just buy a new one. I'd like one that has the capability of using MP3s as ring tones, so I can make my own. But those tend to be $300, which I sure don't have.

Tim Hildebrandt has died.

You do know him. He's one half of the Brothers Hildebrandt. They're famous for the original Star Wars poster, most of the way we see the Lord of the Rings characters, and some of the most incredible bits of comic book card art in the 90's. The art world will never be the same.

Guess what? Alberto will be in my neighborhood in a few days.

I've been having a rather shitty week, but getting this has made my day. I won a contest sponsored by a Cindy Ngan (check her resume!), so I sent her a pic of me and a pic of Sephiroth, and told her to work her magic on it. I love the results. ;-)

ARG!

Interesting story or not, Chrono Cross is about to get sold back to the store. My reward for trying to save Kid when she's poisoned it getting my ass kicked 7 ways to Sunday in one battle after the other. The leveling system, or lack thereof, sucks and the magic system is a pain in the ass.

Bleh!

You scored as Jean Grey. Jean Grey is likely the most powerful X-Man. She loves Cyclops very much but she has a soft spot for Wolverine. She's psychic so she can sense how others are feeling and tries to help them. She also has to control her amazing powers or the malevolent Phoenix entity could take control of her and wreak havok.

Dear Hotmail,

Your Windows Live Mail sucks like a really sucky thing.

I think I'll configure Thunderbird to make it better.

Love,
