Life-long movie lover and LaserDisc collector, computer user since age ten, espresso snob and hobbyist barista, learning to cook, seasoned fledgling magician, wannabe photographer, reformed drug addict, disc golfer, Psion 5mx user, PS3/PSP enthusiast (but only a casual gamer), amateur nurse, city guy temporarily stuck in a very small town and rarely stops complaining about it…
ya’ know… the usual stuff...
trace my online steps
(
)
reading my Twitter timeline will keep you updated on my day-to-day life and i have recently begun posting pics and videos from my phone to my flickr photostream and my YouTube channel, respectively...
i have reluctantly given up on Zannel for fear of them folding like so many other social media services recently, but i still have countless pics and vids there... and i think my Dashwire and TwitPic days are over...
i love photography and i also use flickr to show off my photographs and snapshots, though i don't update it often enough, but here's my personal faves i've taken and here's my faves i WISH i took...
Wakoopa knows all about what desktop software i use...
Del.icio.us is where i keep all my favorite bookmarks...
and i am always adding interesting news/blog items i've read to my Google Reader shared items...
you can learn a lot about my taste in movies at my Netflix profile and yes, i own about 350 LaserDiscs and they are all listed on my LDDb collection page...
i don't listen to much music but i go through phases when i look to Last.fm and/or Pandora to try to satisfy my needs...
btw, people complain because i never use my MySpace and Facebook and i usually don't even remember i have an account on StumbleUpon and i haven't gone to my LiveJournal in years...
i also own insidiousplots.com, jesusfreakgeek.com, abqdiscgolf.com, nmdiscgolf.com, and baristopher.com...
and, for years, everything else kind of ends up in the old stuff directory...

Wesley can’t wait until Christmas http://flic.kr/p/7jvG19

Considering a Gaggia Pure or Evolution. Seems to be below my experience level but the features are better than my bleeping (broken) Bodum.
|
|
|
Not that I can afford either Gaggia ($250ish) but can’t find cheaper in that class and it looks to be a decent next works-for-now machine.
|
|
|
I can’t begin to guess how many times i’ve been tempted to buy a machine on credit – $500+ range, last me for years – no more entry level.
|
|
|
Hey, i’ve made the best of my sub-standard espresso machines! Modding, pushing to (past?) their limits for what? Five years?(!)
|

"Bloom where you’ve been planted." saw that yesterday – hadn’t heard it in a long time. gotta’ try to live it.

Blech, what an ugly day outside. And I see Cloudcroft is getting snow. ( http://cloudcroftwebcam.com & http://cloudcroftweather.com )

|
|
Just got a tip to take my broken PS3 to Tech Solutions here in Alamo – says he does consoles – have any of you had any dealings with them?

Uh oh. Awake at 4am, @nurseterra pretty sick. No gall bladder, fatty holiday foods? Stomach flu? (Better to get sick on the weekend?)
|
|
|
|
|
|
.@nurseterra is feeling a little better this morning. Good thing, too – she’s getting calls and has three visits already today.
|
|
|
Power just went out.
|
|
|
|
|
Waiting to see if @PNMTalk has something useful to say. First time power out since I started following them.
|
|
|
@don_rivers so far, we aren’t so lucky.
|
|
|
Grrr, promised @nurseterra kitchen would be clean when she got home, ready for slumber party. Windowless, powerless kitchen = a dark cave.
|
|
|
Power back on. For now.
|
|
|
Ran to kmart for spn munchies, ended up getting lots of stocking stuffers and now it’s 9 ‘clock!!! Laaaate slumber party, prob fall asleep.
|
|
|
White chocolate covered pretzel rods and Christmas Vacation. Two great slumber party night choices :)

|
Man, how many cupcakes did I eat last night? Still feeling a bit ill.
|
|
|
@BoseService ok, it’s a 5 cd changer sitting beneath what i believe is called an acoustic wave machine – cd won’t play, won’t eject.

I uploaded a YouTube video — Thanksgiving Eve – making desserts for tomorrow http://bit.ly/5AVELc
|
|
|
NOOOO!!!! The pudding fridged for 12 hours and it’s TOO THIN!! Any suggestions for a fix?
|
|
|
And my mom’s stooopid Bose just ate my holiday mix CD I’d been saving for today! Won’t play, won’t spit it out. Where’s my Ativan??!! o.O
|
|
|
Ok, pudding saved. Added white choc instant pudding mix sparinbngly until it thickened enough. Sigh. It will have to do.
|

|
Thanksgiving dinner and Pieces of April with the fam – mom, wesley, me, and @nurseterra.
|
|
|
Could we maybe just burn the kitchen down instead of having to clean it?

|
|
|
We certainly aren’t home and dry yet – lost a lot of income – but we are definitely home and vigorously toweling ourselves off :)
|
|
|
Wesley can’t figure out what we’re jumping up and down and tangoing around the living room about :D
