i want to play half-life 2 and doom3 when they come out. i'd like to play farcry and battlefield 1941 (and rtcw:et at decent settings) but i want to get an xbox. so right now i'm trying to decide between upgrading my computer for $300 (512mb more ram, new cpu, ati radeon 9600xt 128mb) or getting an xbox + a bunch of games ($300). i already have a ps2 and cube with games i ignore, but i use my laptop for nigh everything and pretty much ignore the computer. bleh. it's a decision of which do i want less.

passport came in the mail today, it's all high tech like licenses are. went to a home buying seminar, things arent as bleak as they seem. got some interesting info out of it. things like, stop tryign to save fora down payment, because the amount you need for a downpayment increases quicker than you can realistically save. i have an appt next week to see how much i can borrow for a house and what my credit and fico scores are.

tonight for drawing night, we are going to draw/paint up a wall @ the phoenix theatre. i printed off some stickers, for sticking. i used the folder/binder containing the info about my 401k to keep the stickers safe. in an act of rebellion, though, i will not wear a tie or bring my briefcase tonight. that will show them. ok, well i'll bring my briefcase, not the tie, but i INSIST on keeping hte sock garters. here are the stickers #1 and #2
crit?: 0slept in late. we usually wake up around 7 or 8. stayed in bed till noon. did errands, picked up things for fathers day. made a coke float. got a good window fan for the house, the ventilation isnt always the greatest in the rooms without ceiling fans. dinner @ folks house. we got dad a briefcase/satchel thing for his promotion/fathers day
crit?: 0woke up early for computer fixink @ 10a. went to computer fixink, but the needed work wasnt communicated well, so i left. once they get the hardware tehy thought they had, i go back and actually do something. home. ern's dad went back to oregon. ern and i went to bbq @ landlord's house in forestville. our house is his old house. we have nice landscaping and features and whatnot. our yard is his first attempt, his yard is his second. so freaking neat. it was like being on an island in the tropics somewhere. all kinda of neat things. his atrium is nicer than ours, firepit, nicer. they made us feel real welcome too, they didnt seem to be forcing it at all. landlord's wife went to hug me a couple of times but i'm kinda weird about touching people. after that bbq we went to liz's bday bbq @ derek and liz's house. we only planned to stay for a little tiny bit, but stayed for a lot longer. the plan was to stay for an hour, then go home and take a nap, then go out for drinks with ern's cousins. so we get home and i put in xmen2 as i hadnt seen it. ern goes for her nap, but it turns into just going to bed, so we didnt end up going back out. the movie was good though.

forgot to mention, someone wants to use a drawing for an album cover, but they actually seem serious about it.

I'm trying to work without my flourescent lights on today, just a lamp. someone suggested it after i expressed envy @ a coworkers broken overhead light. i said well i do have a lamp so they said then turn off your overhead. i said "but people will say i'm all goth" and she said "what do you care, what other people think" so i'm trying the darkened office thing now. so far i have fielded questions regarding my sitting in the dark.

after work, went home. ern's dad wanted to go out to a movie, but ern was nigh asleep from work/painting 2 her aunts. we ate a big dinner then watched "raising arizona" which i hadnt seen

crit?: 0today i stared at a wordy box for 8 hrs. i went home and stared at a different wordy box, then i made some mushroom udon with celery. i doodled a bit, but it was crap so i did some math. ern came home and we talked and such till we were wubbing our widdle sweepy fists into ow widdle sweepy eyes. did i mention i wrote some neat procmail code the other day? this code scans incoming mail for attachments, if it is a zip file, and named "foo.zip" it gets delivered. if it is a zip file with any other name than "foo.zip" a message is sent to the sending party informing them of our policy regarding zip files and viruses and such and such. after the message is sent, the message continues on through the bit of code that bins it as a virus (so that i can then scrape it off of the server in an emergency).
Several options. if you remove the "#" the original attachment will be included with the message. i don't recommend this, because it eats your bandwidth and auto-responders are already shitty things to do to people, let alone making the message big with the attachment. the "cat /var/reply.msg" can be any plain text file with the message you want to send back to the sending party. it doesnt have to be in /var/ that's just where i stuck it.
