So we got cable modem here, (yes cable modem no cable tv as it was much more expensive than satelite for the same things) and anyway after a bunch of finagaling (sp?) with our wiring we got it connected and running. Unfortunately it doens't appear that my connection is very good because web ages take a literal ten minutes to load and sometimes just crap out. So, there's something wrong. Steve's sister has a friend that is a computer guy and he's going to take a look. One of the other computers is having a similar problem. Poo! we'll see. It was alot of work to run all our wiring so this better work out. Actually though i had fun the days that we were setting up stuff because everyone was around and i was around watching and something was going on, and it's probably one of the days of the most social contact i had in a long while.
Some people here are going on a trip to New Orleans at the end of April. Steve and I aren't but a whole bunch of steve's family are. Just for fun. Steve has a weeks vacation he's going to take off sometime soon. I can't believe my birthday (also at the end of april) is less than two months away now. Steve and i are talking now instead of flying up there driving up there when steve has two weeks off (maybe late summer) but um, nothing i settled yet. I could get alot of my things if we did, but on the other hand, i don't have a place for most of my things here, and storage is sort of expensive.
Does anyone remember this showthat i used to watch as a kid. It was a kids show, animated and it had characters that were animals, i particularily remember there were koala's a koala boy and his younger sister and he had a best friend that was a rabbit and a friend that was a girl but ambiguosly romantic but i don't remember what animal she was.. and they the koalas ate eucalytis leaves, and one time in the show there were locusts, and in the mountain there was some strange guy who you couldn't see most of him he was all wrapped up and he had a little flying squirrel, and there was always this inane gecko that would run around with it's neck flap up freaking out. does anyone else remember this?
tv quide makes mention of johnny depps upcoming role in charlie and the chocolate factory's remake (he's playing willy wonka) and a movie that i want to see that's called the libertine, which is about a 17th century poet but i want to see it because it has both him and samantha morton in it who i really like. lastly apparently, he's going to play a role in a movie about the author of peter pan, j.m. barrie. which is cool because there's a relaly neat story behind why he wrote peter pan which i can't remember the details of but i read about oncein this book for psychology class and had to dow ith something like his brother who was his mother's favorite died and his mother consoled herself with the fact that he would never get old and "tainted" by things and so he himself never married or anythign in an attempt to stay a child and then he wrote peter pan. Like i said i'm not sure about the details but maybe someone remembers me telling the story before. and i think i still have the book somewhere, if i didn't sell it back. so if they tell that story then that will be very interesting, though it just says here that he plays "a drug adict with pedophilic leanings."
I want to see firestarter again, but i think if i actually did i would be like, this isn't very good. i want to see colonial house, which i guess in may will be it's new fourth season but i've never seen it yet. it's "26 history buffs re-creating life as 17th century pilgrims in maine."
So.. other than that nothing much has been happening. Steve's brother might want me to show his some some things about drawing sometime..
gotta go see ya later.
