I <3 Queen. More is coming to Rock Band (source):
Yay! Also, Glee covered Somebody to Love! It’s like they knew it was my birthday month. =)
In other news, it’s good to know Sam is still an attention whore.
At least I have been having fun because of it too…
A bunch of us played some ultimate frisbee on Saturday and I’m a little sore from it, but that’s alrighty. Bummed around mostly the rest of the weekend. I also made my first iPhone MMS text by sending Sam’s nipple to Viraj. I’m sure he enjoyed that one immensely. Why do I have a picture of Sam’s nipple on my iPhone? In the words of Ryan, “Oh… you know…”
This weekend, we moved Ryan into my house in about two hours thanks to Al, Eduardo, Tiff, and Kalyn (in addition to Ryan and myself, of course). It was a pretty quick move and Ryan promptly setup his bed and slept. This weekend also marked the debut of the JRyanFunSponge Twitter account where Al, Eduardo and I will be chronicling the adventures of Ryan at Oliver’s house in first person Ryan perspective.
Also on Saturday (it was a busy day), I watched the UT/Tech game and then headed over to Tiff’s bday/house-warming bash, which I’m sure there will be pictures posted from (I forgot to bring my camera).
Sunday, I got a hair cut (thanks, Mom!), played some frisbee with Andrew, Mark, and OMan, then took humor in watching the Cowboys lose their first game in their brand new stadium. Hah!
Nope, I did not have a hangover, but I went to see Hangover with Al and Ryan. It was pretty entertaining. Beforehand, Al and I were trying to help Ryan find a car. I thought he should get an old VW bus, Delorean, a new Camaro, or a Dodge Viper. ;p Haha…
On Saturday, I switched back to Time Warner from AT&T. It’s pretty much picking the lesser of two evils, but my experience with TW has been a lot better than AT&T (at least for internet performance). Sunday was pretty lazy, but I watched a few episodes of 30 Rock with Chancy.
Yeah… not a very eventful weekend. =)
I forgot to post about this past weekend, so I will do so now, late.
On Saturday, I went up to Round Rock for lunch with the family (Olivia came to drop off the dogs before her trip to Asia). Then, I accompanied Nancy to Houston who picked up Viraj to go to a baby shower. I opted to stay at Viraj’s apartment with the thought of “oh, it’ll only be two or three hours” (said Nancy). They left at about 5something and I was under the impression it started at around 6ish, so come around 9:30ish, Viraj calls and tells me they’re about to cut cake then they’ll leave soon. Okay, I think, I’m hungry, but not too bad, so I can wait a bit longer. At almost 11:30, Viraj calls me again and says they’ll be back in 15 minutes. In like… 45 minutes after that, they rescue me from hunger.
I don’t remember what I did on Sunday… I think I saw Extract which was meh.
On Monday, I went to Salt Lick with Ryan, Al, Eduardo, and Elyse. That’s the first time I actually did their all you can eat thing. It took a long time for us to actually get food (like 1.5-2 hours), so I was hungry again. =( But! It was pretty good food.
SLURM!
This weekend, Blythe and Ryan had their Zelda playing party at my place where they beat the first one. We also watched some Firefly, ate some Indian food, and I watched some 21 (which wasn’t very good, but I watched it anyways). After that, other people showed up at my place and hung out til the wee hours of the night.
Not much else happened other than that… pretty uneventful weekend, I suppose. On to a probably hectic week! Woo!
I don’t really remember what I did this past weekend, so it’s now known as the forgotten one. Here’s what I think happened…
Oh yes, I remember something eventful now… UT apparently had a pretty large mishap with my [email protected] email address. I sent them an email but have yet to receive a reply, so I will likely give them a call tomorrow. If the call goes unsatisfactory, I’m sure I will supply more detail here.
I did a lot of bumming around and playing WoW this weekend. I started leveling up my gnome rogue on Illidan, Powderpuff, again… went from 55 to 57. Then, I did a few other random WoW stuff. On Saturday, met up with some of the BV folk to wish farewell to Rebecca as she heads off to our UK office, then I went to see District 9 at the South Lamar Drafthouse. I found it pretty enjoyable though I wish the climax would have been a bit more exhilarating.
I stayed up pretty late on Saturday starting the migration of Owiber.com from Dreamhost to a slice at Slicehost. If you’re reading this, all went well. =) I’m waiting for the NS changes to propagate still, but alas, 1and1 is terrible and it takes forever, so I’m transferring away from them. In the mean time, I’ve created A records at Dreamhost to point to my slice’s IP. Next up, OliverWEB and a few other misc sites…
Sunday was a good deal of bumming too, but I biked over to Chancy’s place and had dinner with them and Chad’s family. Now, I am going to drink a coke. Tata!
This weekend started early after Bazaarvoice’s traditional All-Hands at the Alamo Drafthouse (we’re currently at the South Lamar location because I think that’s the only one that will fit us at this point). Some of the crew headed over to Matt and Tara’s to chill by/in the pool, then we headed to Trudy’s so Heather could get her complimentary birthday martini.
Speaking of the All-Hands, it was kicked off this quarter by an air band competition:
After that, a few peeps came to chill at my place including Ochs and Weishan, which meant that Sam came along too since he apparently has a thing for Weishan and her “innocent friends.” I don’t know, that’s what I heard, just saying.
On Saturday, I headed to Hula-Hut to chill with some BV folk including Lisias who visits us for the first time from the UK. I got some shrimp tacos which I thought were adequately tasty. =) On the way home, Ryan tried to persuade me to play some Zelda games, but was not successful. =p
The night ended with some WoW and DotA, where Viraj decided to not plug in and use his known flakey wireless network resulting in two incomplete games. At least I got to kill and laugh at him a lot in the last game. Some notable moments in the last game included:
On Sunday, I woke up way later than intended and just bummed around for a while. Started going through the Django tutorial again, then chilled with some of the gang and watched The Fly. Thaaaaat’s all folks.
This weekend started off poorly with my A/C not turning on. It ended up being because the drain pipe was clogged so the system automatically shut off to prevent my house from flooding. At least it was a relatively easy fix. Weekend was rather uneventful other than that… I played around with AppleScript/iTunes/iChat, went to get some dim sum with some of the BV gang, and did some misc errands and cleaned the house a little.
I have a headache right now that I think is due to me needing a new contact prescription (I believe they have gotten worse again - so I am even more blind than before). I’m gonna have to make an appointment tomorrow and take care of that…
