I Got Punished for Someone's Joke

Here is a funny story. I was sitting at my G-Maw-in-law's (Babs) house with my G-dad-in-law (J.W.) their neighbor and my wife. Babs was talking about a flounder that she had caught. Babs looked at JW and then at her neighbor and said, "I don't know why we couldn't have kept it." J.W. said it wasnt the legal limit to keep. Babs said it had to be at least 19 inches, which just so happens to be the legal limit. J.W. held his two index fingers five to six inches apart and said "If I have you convinced that this is 19 inches then I've been doing great!" I nearly fell out of my chair laughing. Babs looked at J.W. and then at me and slapped me. What did I do?

Finally Back to Normal

I am finally caught up on sleep and feeling a lot better than I have over the past two days. I may have had a slight cold because I was tired, grumpy and annoyed at EVERYTHING!! And I mean everything. I litterally slammed the ice trays on the sink several times because I was pissed that I couldn't get out a piece of ice. I was upset over freaking ICE TRAYS!!! Anyway.

I am trying to get Trixie on the Podcast, but my chances are probabily as good as having Major Nelson on the podcast...wait...sorry. Bad example.

I will talk to you guys later.

Geezer Radio Explination

I just wanted to give everyone a quick update on the status of Geezer Radio. I have been wanting to get a new eposide done before Memorial Day weekend, but that didn't happen. The main reason for this was that SparkStalker is in the middle of a Sex Re-Assignment Surgery and he...I mean she needs time for things to heal...Just kidding. Spark is sick and has been sick since the Meet and Greet earlier this month. I would like something to get done this weekend, but can't guarantee anything. If nothing is done this weekend, I will move ahead with a guest host so that everyone won't be kept in the dark with what is happening around GeezerGamers.com. I hope to give you an update on this soon.

Highlights from the Weekend

I am way too dazed and confused to in any way shape or form tell you fully about this past weekend, so I'll just give you the highlights.

- Beat GHIII on easy
- Tried GHIII on medium and failed
- Got sunburnt on my needs really bad
- Continue to think that my GrandMother in law doesnt like me (I could say why, but then my wife would say I'm reading too much into the situation)
- Surrounded by women for most of the weekend (2 15-year-olds, 1 53-year-old, 1 24-year-old, 1 72-year-old) and I loved it!
- Bought the wife a new phone a Maroon ENV2 from Verizon
- Watched National Treasure 1 & 2 on Bluray
- Ate Belguim waffles on Saturday morning
- Ate waffles Sunday night at Waffle House
- Slept in Sunday and Monday

Hopefully, I'll have time to get more organized this week. Thanks.

I am a Guitar Hero

I entered into my first game of Online Co-Op for Guitar Hero last night and I think I did a great job. KOKitten, who was the first guest on Geezer Radio was my co-op partner. We did a great job with several songs. We hit 496 consecutive notes on one song and 485 on another. It was awesome. The one thing, though, that I nned to remember, is that I am not actually a guitar hero, I'm just some poor guy who thinks he is.

On another note, no pun intended, the SkypeCast went really well. McJeepers and MrParadox joined me for some light-hearted discussion. I did find out a couple of things about SkypeCasts. 1. They are basically glorified conference calls on Skype. 2. You do need Skype installed on your PC (it's a free download and free call to other Skype users). 3. A conference call method might actually be a better route to take, but SkypeCasts are a little more organized. I look forward to the next one where the discussion will be about 10 features every Xbox game should have. I hope to see you there.

Don't Compliment the Wife!

Okay, I was talking with my wife last night getting ready for bed. I looked at her and asked "Are you loosing weight?" She looked at me and said, "Awh, thanks honey. That's the best compliment that I've heard in a long time." I was brushing my teeth at the time, so I said to her "Saying that your beautiful isn't a compliment?" She said, very casually like, "No, not from you." You should have seen how fast my face turned towards her. I think toothpaste spat out onto the wall when I looked at her and said "What?" She then realized what she said, and then went into panic mode. So, for the next half-hour I stood there with my arms crossed listening to her try to explain what she meant. After that, I casually walked to my bed and got in. She quickly jumped into bed and started pleading with me not to be mad at her and that she was sorry. I simply said, "I'm not mad. I'm just surprised that you said that." She then said, "Well, what I meant was...was...SH*T!!! I f*cked up!" At that, I burst out laughing and couldn't stop for the next twenty minutes. IT WAS AN AWESOME NIGHT!!!!

I love my wife and I think she is the most beautiful creature God has ever made. I am very fortunate to be married to someone so beautiful and funny.

Busy Work or Busy at Work

This job can be a nightmare at sometimes. We just went through a server move and one of our Servers died on us completely. Of course, we don't have a back-up server, and that means trouble with a CAPITAL T. When will we get the back-up in? I don't know. How much damage has this done to us, A LOT! Will they order back-up servers before the original crashes going foward? I doubt it... Finding it hard just to take a lunch break.

Anyway. I continue to fantasize about going home to play GHIII and to a lesser extent GHII. I love the game play. I even got a second guitar and game for the wife so we can play in two seperate rooms at the same time. I wonder if GTA IV or RS:V will get much play in the next couple of weeks?

Co-Oping with the Wife

The wife and I played Guitar Hero III last night and we both LOVED IT. It wasn't even a discussion when she said that she wanted her own guitar and game! She did a good job and so did I, considering that this was only the second time ever that I played the game. I downloaded the No Doubt Tack Pack and played them on Easy and did AWESOME! It was an odd feeling though. The three songs in that pack were Excuse Me Mr., Don't Speak, and Sunday Morning. I have listened to those songs 1 million times each and they are three of my favorite all time songs by No Doubt, so when I was playing them, and I missed a note, it was like slapping my mother. It was so important to hit all the notes, and when I missed a note I really was upset. But I got through them with high a score for each and was proud. I also did some of the campaign on Easy and did well. I managed to get an achievement (100 note hit streak on Alice Cooper's School's Out). My wife unlocked an achievement for getting 97% of the song done before failing (she's a wonderful wife to unlock achievements for me). Anyway, I had a great time, my wife had a great time, and later that night...we both had a great time... :~p

Creativity and System Restores

I have decided to run a SkypeCast for Geezer Radio. I will announce the time and place on GeezerGamers.com/GeezerCasts/SkypeCast thread. Please watch for updates. I would like this to be a success and something that the community would like.

This weekend was dominated by work. I was at work for 5 1/2 half hours on Saturday: 9AM through 2:30PM. And on Sunday, I was at work 10 1/2 hours on Sunday: 1PM through 11:30PM. It was an interesting day/night.

I can't wait to get home tonight and get some sleep and play Guitar Hero for the first time.

Peace-Out!

Quick Things

Just wanted to lay down some quick things.

1. I have moved all of my Boss bashing to a new blog. Will tell you when the time is right.
2. Sorry to all my readers who can't understand my incoherient babbeling(sp?). When I write things sometimes, it doesn't always translate well when I type it all out. For those of you interested in the Large Hadron Collider, here is a link to the Wikipedia article.
3. I am feeling very creative. The last time I have felt this creative, a Podcast called Geezer Radio was made. What I would like to do wiull be announced on GeezerGamers.com under the GeezerCasts forum section. I'll update it here with a link to the Posts when I an ready to announce it.

Have a great weekend. For me, I will be working almost all weekend. See you around.
