Month: October 2002

First I should start with what I’m grateful for – I am glad that it is cooler outside now here in Houston. Our high today should be 78, with a low of 66. However, I am tired of the rain. It’s rained almost non-stop since Sunday. Gray and overcast. We did see a hint of sunshine yesterday, and I could see the moon when I was out last night, but this morning it was nothing but gray again. The allergies are starting to kick in to high gear now too, thanks to the rain.

Of course the gray weather just makes you want to curl up and sleep in late, and that’s exactly what I did this morning. Not intentionally though – and that’s when it sucks. Sure the extra sleep feels good, but the jolt you get when you wake up and realize you’ve overslept … blech. I hate that feeling. I set my alarm last night before I went to bed – but didn’t turn it on. Fortunately I woke up on my own, only about 15 minutes late – so it all turned out ok in the end.

So while I’m having a great week, and life is generally fantastic – I’m so tired of the rain. I need my sunshine! Anyone know an anti-rain dance I can try?

With the holidays just around the corner, I have to remember these tips – from Jake at 8Bit Joystick: How to Get Your Video Gaming Money’s Worth. Jason has a PS1 at our house, and a PS2 at my parent’s house – so we already knew a lot of the tips about using the PS1 games on the PS2. Now the plans are under way to have a PS2 at my house too – so I’m sure there are new games in our future! It may be possible that we can also play the games on the computer, so If you’re playing this title, you should look into getting the best gaming mouse you can afford. Another link that Jake recommended over in Kristine’s is GameFAQs, which I am sure will come in handy. Anyone else have some good game related links to share?
