I’m Hearing: Dj Xaero - Pleasure 10.22.01

Was a pretty fun weekend. I got my new DDR pad on Friday so we played for several hours. I couldn’t believe it when I opened up the package and looked at the instructions. Total Engrish. :-) We played even more on Saturday night despite how tired our legs were.

I spent most of Saturday on my couch either sleeping or crocheting. I made good use of my dual display capabilities from my video card and pumped out the Winamp visualization to my TV without disturbing what was happening on my monitor. :-D Dual displays rock, especially when they’re independent like that.

Sunday I went to my parents’ house for a bit before the guys and I went shopping in Appleton. Mom had torn a page out of the newspaper that had an article about the upcoming art show, and lo and behold, my painting was in the background. :-D :D A very pleasant surprise indeed.

All in all it was a fantastic weekend. Wish it was longer though, of course. Thinking about taking a full week off sometime before school starts up again just so I can have some rest. I know, I know…it’s summer and all, and I haven’t had classes for a couple months now, but I’ve also been working the whole time. It would be splendid to have a whole week where I could just be a bum. Awhile back I was talking to someone on IRC who didn’t have a summer job so he had been extremely lazy and had just slept all day and messed around on his computer all night…and hadn’t showered for three days! I can’t really conceive of not showering for that long but it would be so nice to do whatever I wanted and not worry about having to be anywhere at any particular time. I remember during spring break I took the week off from work, but it wasn’t like it was a “vacation” or anything because I was working on my school projects the whole time. The unfortunate thing is that I can’t afford to take time off right now because I’m still in the hole from buying that computer. >_<
