New Roommate

By NullMind on January 6, 2005

Got a new roommate last Sunday ..

He’s a quiet guy, and very quiet, which is great .. he also is very respectful, when he wants a smoke, he goes outside .. thank god .. I cant stand the smell of smoke, I washed all my clothes, but I can sill smell smoke from the old roommate’s habit of smoking in the house :(

Sum of the XMAS time.

By NullMind on December 27, 2004

This year XMAS was quite sad .. Sally and the Girls are still in FLA, so I had to spent it by myself.

I did the most of it trough .. went downtown on the 24th and bought me some lobsters and a huge crab .. it was seafood pandora all weekend :)
I sent Sally some flowers .. here is a pic of them

I really missed out this year, not being there to see them open the presents, especially when this year Vannah really started to get the meaning of it ..

Look forward to next year guess :/

XIII

By NullMind on December 19, 2004

I Just completed the game XIII .. and what a great game it was.

You play as Jason Fly, who is a military man who lost his memory, he soon realizes there is allot of people trying to kill him, he has also undergone plastic surgery in order to uncover a plot by a group of 20 people who are keen in taking over the USA.

The whole game has a comic book feel to it, especially the cut scenes .. it was quite pleasant to play .. But the last task, which envolves killing an agent called Mongoose was one of the hardest missions ever, I had to replay it close to 20 times in order to be able to kill the bastard before he killed me :)
Highly recommend.

The Nerve

By NullMind on December 15, 2004

Got a IM a couple of days ago, it was the old roommate .. seems he realized he had done a mistaque and is going to return to the UK .. he wanted me to sell his puter back.

Just typical .. the guy drops everything, puts me on the spot with 500� extra in rent to pay, I inherited all the bills,, and I should be understanding about it ?

I said no (need the puter anyway, I sold the laptop) .. and I don’t feel bad .. people need to grow up.

Boring

By NullMind on December 10, 2004

The past few days have been extremely boring, my roommate has left to India, and I am now living alone .. and by god do I hate it.

Now I miss Sally and the kids more than ever, with nobody to talk to their absence is even more evident .. I cant wait till next year when they move over.

Today I just had to get out of the house, so i went downtown .. visited the Spice Shop I had seen on Morgan’s Arcade .. it was nice, it;s more of a organic/health food place, but with some nice spice racks .. I will defenately go back, some of their cheeses and “enchidos” looked superb :)
I now realize that I must get out of the house as often as possible, when I go out for a walk I feel much better, its not good to just sit on the house alone for days on end .. it’s too depressing.

Taxman sent me some forms for the company, they don’t waste time over here (UK) .. guess I will check with an accountant soon, so I can make sure to do everything by the book.

Roommate Baling Out

By NullMind on December 4, 2004

My roommate dropped a bomb on me yesterday, he is in trouble so he is bailing out of the country, I kind of knew something bad was coming, he has been unable to find a job for a while now and his problems just seems to keeping adding up.

I feel sorry for the guy, hope he has better luck in India (where he is heading)

We spoke with the landlord and straiten it up, so I am kind of stuck at paying for the rest of the lease by myself .. :(
On another hand, I bought his PC off him for 100�

Bummer.

New Movies and Book for the week

By NullMind on November 10, 2004

Stepped out this morning, looking for a new book (finished all Dan Brown’s books), at a downtown second hand bookstore I got “Timeline” by Michael Chrichton for 2.50� :)

Having read and enjoyed many of Chrichton’s books, I am sure this one will be good as well.

I also manage to snag 3 DVD’s for 10� (for all 3) .. good deal

it was “Thirteen Days”, “007 - The world is not enough” and “Summer of Sam”

I been wanting to watch “Thirteen Days” for a long time now :)
