We had a good xmas here. Got some good stuff, had a nice lazy day at home... Then we went to the in=laws in MD for the weekend to do the xmas thing there. Overall it was a good weekend. I got an ecosphere - pretty cool. its a totally self-contained ecosystem, all it needs is some indirect sunlight and that's it. It contains everything needed to sustain life in one sealed glass sphere.

Went to see Lord of the rings today.... good movie. I definitely recommend it to anyone. They did an excellent job on this one.

Yahoo! News - Team to Try and Re-Enact First Flight

Today being the 100th anniversary of the wright brothers first flight, they are trying to reproduce it... i hope its successful!

Nothing special going on the last few days.... Finished the kitchen floor, now the kitchen looks much better. I spent some time yesterday re-designing KaosKidd's train layout to be a little more practical. I think I came up with a pretty good solution. I'm hoping to get back to mine soon, maybe I'll start working on it in the evening after work. Who knows... We'll just have to wait and see. It's raining here today, snowing in northern parts, but rain here. Go figure. We spent most of the day just being lazy.. You need to have a lazy day once in a while. I'm waiting till 7 when the battlestar galactica mini series is being re-shown on sci-fi. I'm gonna tape it. I can't wait to see what they do with the new series. I heard a rumor that the scifi channel is gonna remake the battelstar galactica series. I sure hope it's true. I loved that show.

Looks like Saddam is in custody as of yesterday. It's about time they tracked him down. I was beginning to think he might actually be dead (not necessarily a bad thing).

What a week.. put in nearly 30 hours by tuesday night. I'm worn out already and just want to sleep.. ugh, at least i can take tomorrow off and sleep late. Hopefully I should have the kitchen floor done satirday so I can scratch that project off my to do list. Still have more home improvement projects on my list but i am getting there slowly but surely.

We decided to join the online music revolution. No more buyng CDs for just one song. we're now buying them one song at a time as we want them. Makes more sense really. Why spend $16 for a CD when we can spend .99 a track for the 2 we actually want to hear. SHould prove interesting to see how well it works out.

We're getting closer to getting our little girl. We're waiting for our invitation from Russia then we make the first trip. Should be some time in Jan. I think.......

I'm an UNCLE!!!!

Yup, you read that right.. My sister gave birth yesterday to a 7lb 10oz baby girl!


On another note, spent the weeked re-doing my kitchen floor, looks much better than that tired out linoleum.
