Meesh’s Mini Cooper has the shiniest side view mirrors! Definitely nice and shiny after a great wash.

So not much has been really happening in my world just now. Actually, this weekend, my parents are finally moving out here to the west coast, so my hands are a bit full right now. But other than that, I think things have been pretty quiet in these parts, which is good, since that’s what I need right now.
So thanks for stopping by, but take a visit to my other reads right now, like Katie, cybr, Muse, Jules and most of all, Meesh!

I felt the “quickie” or “aside” post I made about Sidney Pollack passing away was perhaps a bit too little. I really loved his stuff. He was also an actor, and did quite a bit of acting. I think that one of the best things I’ve seen him do, however, was the Cingular commercial that you saw while going to the movies, when they tell you “silence your cellphones”. (video after the bump)
Yes, we know he did the movies like “Out of Africa” and “Tootsie” (directed) but he also produced and starred in “Michael Clayton” as well as many other movies and shows you probably didn’t think he was in. Take a look at his IMDB profile and see for yourself. Sidney got around.
It’s just getting sad the people I grew up watching are passing away, like cybr said. It’s just crazy. It’s a great reminder that I’m just getting old. But I’m not even that old! I’ll be turning 40 this year, so this is my “Around 40″ time. Ironically, there’s a Japanese dorama called “Around 40″ but I won’t get into it just yet. Soon.

Director Sydney Pollack dies of cancer @ CNN.com As of this time, no details were laid out. Just cancer. This is a sad day.

It seems awful weird that there is still a whole week left, and yet we’re celebrating Memorial day. It almost seems like it should fall closer to the end of the month, but the “rule” says “the last monday of May” and so here we are, the last Monday of the month.
Please take a moment this day to remember all those who fought for the country, and thank them in your mind if not aloud. There are many veterans who have lost their lives for our country, and deserve a thanks. Actually, all veterans receive thanks, but that’s not what today is for. They already have a veteran’s day in November.
I remember visiting Washington DC one time in the past with a couple friends and we visited the Arlington Cemetary. I tell you, it’s pretty damn creepy and sad. You can see rows and rows of tombstones. I just have to think that all these people are people who fought for this country and perished. It just saddens me. But today is about them, and I won’t dwell on it. Let’s just say thanks for serving our country. Semper Fi!

Well, I thought I’d have a good post today, but it seems like all I’ve been doing is literally sitting around playing World of Warcraft and watching my Japanese dorama. How exciting is this? Of course, I’m feeling a lot better since my surgery, and I’ve finally sort of got my appetite back. So I’ve been eating pretty well. I think the anesthesia effects are gone now, and that’s a good thing, I didn’t like those at all. It’s crazy that it spends so much time in my body even after I’m done with surgery.
I do have to admit though that the doctor knew what he was talking about when he said recovery would be a week. Holy crap, I thought I was stronger than this, but it’s taken this long to recover. I feel so weak.
Haven’t had a chance to check out Age of Conan yet. Probably will wait a bit more until I get better. I bet I’ll have to play it on my normal PC instead of the notebook, since my notebook doesn’t have a decent video card. From what I can tell you need a decent geforce or better card. Hmm I should have gotten the better video when I got this, but this laptop isn’t for gaming.

When I was out looking at houses for my parents to buy, I had to take pictures of them. Oddly enough I needed an organization system because I went to see many houses at a time. So to separate the pictures on my camera I took pictures of my feet. I know, a rather mundane way to keep track, but it worked.

This week has been slow. I’ve been laid up in bed or on the couch resting because I feel sick or nauseous or both. Recovery is crazy from surgery. But I’m still doing a TGIF post today because it’s what I do and that’s how I roll.
I just want to remind everyone that next Friday is Free for all Friday, and if you’re not familiar with FFAF, it’s where you get to guest post on my blog. It’s fun, it’s a way to pimp your site, possibly get a couple new readers (or lose them! LOL). So look for it next Friday.
cybr came to the dark side and re-activated his World of Warcraft account. Leveling is so much faster in that game now, and well, I think he’d love to see Outland. It’s pretty damn cool, and it’s a lot of fun. We’ll see how that goes.
Jen totally made LOL when I read a post about what one of her co-workers did with her telephone. You should read it, totally funny story! She’s too funny! And I’m so glad I know when she updates in my reader now!
It looks like Abraxus picked up Age of Conan recently and wrote a pretty good post about it. We’ve been considering picking it up. I think Meesh was really curious about it, so I think we’re probably going to end up going to Best Buy this weekend and picking it up. Or she will and we’ll try it out. I doubt it will run on our laptops, but you never know! We do all our gaming on the laptops, perhaps it’s time to change?
Finally, girlrobot posted her friday links as usual and posted a picture of the most awesome tattoo I’ve seen in a while! Check it out!
