Vacation!

45 more minutes to go....

I'm eagerly awaiting, and trying to find BS to do while counting down the last few minutes.  Hopefully, the requests will stay resolved, and nothing will break.  Then it's off to the Oakley store to see if they have those flops I wanted last year.  By this time tomorrow, I'll be half-way to my weekend destination of Bush Gardens.  Next week, I'll be getting some much needed sun and relaxation on the east coast beaches.  I swear I'm solar powered... and I've been in desperate need of a recharge for quite some time, now.

w00+!

BTW, if you listen to 'net radio, I'm sure you already know this, but visit SaveNetRadio.org.  The RIAA's been at it again.  They're backing this bill that went through Congress a little while back that ridicuously increased the royalty rates that "free" internet radio stations have to pay; most all stations will be put out of business if this bullshit gets finalized.  So there's this "Internet Radio Equality Act" trying to debunk it.  If you ever want to listen to something other than typical "airwaves" sanctioned radio stations on the internet, notify your Senate Representatives.  Even if you don't listen to 'net radio, give your Senators something useful to do.  ;)  Besides, it's already passed in the House.

Ok, I'm outtie.  That killed.... crap... only 14 minutes.  *sigh*.... 31 to go....

BTW, Halo 3 R0X0RZ!!!!11!111!!

Virtual identity crisis.

There are times when I'm note quite sure about continuing my virtual existance on the net. I mean, I can't decide if it's an extension of who I am in reality or if it's an escape from that reality. Other times I wonder if it's become nothing more than just a burden I've brought upon myself to continue to carry. What started almost 15 years ago as random appearances in an IRC chat room on a "Freenet" system has culminated into today's blogging and online commnunity memberships.

Maybe this existance and its transitions are just fads that I've eventually grown out of? Maybe I'm finally growing up into a more physically social person? Who knows?


All I do know is... I'm still here... and posting this.


On the lighter side, I will go ahead and admit, you won't see me again for at least a month. ;D .hack//GU Vol 2 was released today. I'll be picking up my copy tomorrow. Then, the Halo 3 Beta starts next week (May 16). Add that to my social obligations over the next couple of weekends and my vacation at the end of the month, I won't be posting again any time soon. But, hey, the next time you hear from me, I'll have experienced info on Halo 3. :D
