Well, i was just informed this evening that my Mother in-law has reached a new low (or high?). Apparently she and her better half had spent the last few days in Laughlin Nevada, Gambling, etc..
I guess she pulled in a pretty good take, something like she went there with $300, and came back with $1300. That's pretty serious when you consider that I NEVER win anything, so walking away with 1k is a pretty nice trip.
She HAD almost 2k i guess, but she was working at a table or machine(i have not had the details), but she made around $600, and went to cash it at the electronic changer, instead of the actual "cage". She proceeded to feed her stuff in, and it stopped working (in her words), so she leaves to get someone to help her. She comes back, demanding that they make it "work". Well i guess she just wasn't patient enough, because the person who was waiting behind her collected the $500 she could not wait for. The machine was re-queing itself i suppose, and she freaked.
What a shitty way to lose $500! I can think of many other ways that are much more physically damaging!
Anyway, it's just a hoot.

New Year.
Well, it's been a while since i've self-posted, it's the NEW YEAR. Alot of things have happend. 1/3 of my unsecured debt is gone, and most likely in the next 1-2 months, the rest will be gone (thanks mom), and i have a feeling it will make a huge difference.
For Christmas, i got a Electric Toothbrush that i really needed, a wikid awesome Garmin GPS that i use way too much, and a bunch of other stuff, ipod accesories, gift cards, and other cool stuff. Per usual, i'm actually happy that the holidays are over, it will be nice to get back to "normal".
This week i "switched" GEN over to a Mac Mini, and it's going pretty well. I think we are both pretty damn tired of dealing with Microsoft, and the garbage of PC's. Unfortunately it's my job, so i still have to deal with them outside of the house. I think i'll be switching also to a Mini, it's just more elegant, and some of the apps (iphoto), make it all worth it.
On Christmas Day we went and saw I Am Legend. I had read the book, and i have to say that i enjoyed the movie more. It was just as good as i thought it would be, very moving, disturbing, makes you think a bit.
BACK TO WORK! ug.
