hello! yoshi > Cybr

No I promise you that the title of this post has nothing to do with anything political or this post whatsoever. It just happens to be a quote I like from one of my favourite movies. See if you can guess who said and what movie it’s from. If you get it right you’ll get my eternal respect. Don’t cheat now.

So, while surfing the net, I came across this interesting thing, 18 shirts you should NOT wear to meet your girlfriends parents. I’ve got some good t-shirts, but these are definitely not the type to wear to meet the parents. I don’t think even I would wear those to Meesh’s parents house now. LOL There are a few t-shirts I’d like to have for myself, however: warcraft t-shirts (thanks cybr) and this one (thanks Jules).

I think I’ve managed to link pimp quite enough of people today.

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!

Unfortunately this weeks TGIF post had to be pre-written because I’m in the hospital and should be getting discharged today. I had to stay overnight because I have sleep apnea and they just wanted to be sure I was ok, presumably because I just had anesthesia and I guess I might have some issues with anesthesia and sleep apnea. Who knows. All I know is I don’t have to pay for it thank goodness.

Breigh and Xander just got back from an awesome vacation, and they just celebrated their 8th anniversary! You should probably go wish some congratulations and just say hello. You really need to check out the pictures she took too because they’re OMG so beautiful! (Xander if you have a blog, I didn’t know! If you do, comment and leave me the address!)

I know I just talked about Katie last week, but she just got her hair dyed. You should check it out, it looks so awesome! I wanna dye my hair too. But not pink like hers. LOL I’m thinking more like auburn or light brown. I’ve had black hair for almost 40 years now. I could use the change.

Lisa is back from disney and sounds like she had a great time. I’m just so glad that we as a community could help her out and give her a great time with her family. Now of course, she comes back and she’s laid off from her job. Please head on over there and give her some love. I’m sure she could use some right now!

Melanie mentioned that she might like to try out a Blogger reality show, where her webcam is on 24/7 and never turned off. Kinda like a Big Brother for bloggers. I think it might be a great idea, but I might have to agree with her dad that it might be a bad idea because someone could easily take any scene they say and warp it. But honestly, I think it’s kinda cool. I mean they have justin.tv and all, why not plaidtoaster tv?

cybr and Muse made the big announcement. You should probably head on over there and see what the fuss is about. It’s so happy it’s crazy! (Shameless advert: Don’t forget to check out A Little Scary, it’s a great web comic with new content every Monday and Thursday!)

Pandora finally made a post recently. I am waiting to hear about her Germany vacation and about her laptop drowning. Should be interesting to hear!

Meesh just bought a new digital camera! I bet you’ll be seeing goofy ass shots of me on the net now. Not like I’ve done that enough on my own right? It should be here on Monday. Fun fun!

Thanks for checking out my TGIF post, please come next week, when you might show up! Suggestions for the TGIF posts are always welcome!

Because I was too busy becoming an American, and running around Seattle the past couple days, I totally missed Jenn’s Birthday! Her birthday was on 4/29. So please go on over there and give her some birthday wishes!

I also wanted to say that A Little Scary has been doing pretty good. I’m not sure if cybr ever thought it would be so good. But I’m loving it. You should probably visit the site, a new comic is out today. A new comic comes out every Monday and Thursday.

Oh, and I did want to address some things in prior posts:

We didn’t have apple pie for dessert for my all american dinner, instead we had root beer floats. That’s pretty american isn’t it? We were thinking about apple pie, but decided on root beer floats instead. I just forgot that part.

Melanie was wondering what “dorama” was. Basically it’s a Japanese TV show that is considered “drama”. Because in Japanese, you pronounce the word drama as “do-ra-ma”, that’s how it became to be known on the net. dorama = Japanese tv drama show. There are other words that go along with it, but just remember when I say “dorama” I’m talking about a tv show in Japan.

Ok, once again, I’m lazy, so a bulleted entry™ it is.

1. Free for all Friday is this Friday folks! The last Friday of the month is FFAF! What does that mean? That means YOU get to post on THIS site! That’s right, I’ll open up posting so you can make a guest post about anything really. I’ll throw some suggestions for you, but ultimately, it’s up to you. This is a good way to promote your latest news to catch a different audience.
2. I’m still giving the CPAP machine a chance. I’ll have pictures up for you soon, once I get around to putting it on and having Meesh take my picture. It’s really sexy! NOT. cybr totally wanted to know more about it. He’s apparently doing some research into it.
3. What’s up with people lately? I swear everyone is in a hurry to get somewhere. Everywhere I turn, there’s someone always in a hurry. I swear driving around yesterday, I was almost hit by so many people. They totally need to get over it and just relax already. seriously!
4. I had more ideas for posts, but honestly, I think of them when I’m in the shower, and I always forget by the time I’ve dried off. Most of my thinking and idea making comes to me while I’m in the bathroom. Is that so wrong? I just wish I could remember half of it. I’ve probably thought of the cure for the common cold already.
5. The Sims 2. Such an evil evil game. And now they’re working on Sims 3? Holy crap. The Sims 3 is due to come out in 2009. We’ll see.

That’s about it for now. How’s your Tuesday going so far? I want to win the lottery and never work again.
