Squirrel 0 – Electricity 1

I get home today after doing some errands and I open the fridge to see that the light is out. It also didn’t seem as cold as it usually is. I start thinking the fridge died when I go upstairs and see that everything is off. There’s no power in the house.

I noticed a dead squirrel right in front of our driveway when I got home. It didn’t look run over so I thought that was odd.

A half hour or so later and the power comes back on, I see a PSE & G truck stop by our house, move the squirrel and then continue down the street. Dad gets home and confirms my suspicion, “That squirrel is burnt to a crisp!” Son bitch must have done something stupid to the transformer on the pole right next to the house and payed dearly for it. Dead before he hit the ground.

Thanks Jon

With the assistance of Jon, I got my Windows XP problem fixed and now have Windows Media Player 11 installed. “Do you?” you ask? Yeah, this unlocks the kick ass feature of WMP 11 being able to stream my mp3s to my 360 all the way downstairs. I now have 3000 songs on my 360 now. Sorts everything for easy access, you can make playlists and shit. Freaking sweet. And if I had any wmv files, I could watch those from my 360 too.

I missed meeting Fieldy by 5 minutes

Matt went to Starlight 17 to get a tattoo today, along with the usual suspects. I get a text message that says there is a “surprise” for me when I get there. I was at Best Buy at the time and got some food, so I was in no real rush to get there. So I finally get a call from Bagels at about 3 saying that Fieldy, the bassist for Korn is at Starlight. So I haul ass and got there a few minutes after he left. 17 was a mess with traffic, so it took extra long to get there.

Korn was in town to film an Unplugged for MTV which should be airing next month. He left to catch a plane back West but I got word that JD is going to be there in January. I’m in the loop so I fully expect me meet one of my heros next month. Fieldy signed and tattooed Kyles leg, his first ever tattoo. Came out well and looks pretty good next to kyles’ Korn tattoo. There is pics and video of it too.

I was so close!

It’s the official Lazy Sunday

Last night was more dramatic than I thought it would be, Buffy made her toe bleed again and I had to take her back to the vet to get patched up. She came out with a bandaged foot and one of those cone collars that she definatly did not appreciate. Took that off when we got home and hung out for the rest of the night with Jon, Brian and Kyle. Went to bed late and I just did some things and took care of Buffy so now the rest of the day is devoted to straight up chilling. It was freezing in here so I had to turn on the heat. Should be a nice calm evening tonight, maybe watch a movie or two and see if anything good is on tv tonight.

The Tony Hawk 8 demo went up yesterday for 360 as did Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3! I bought that and now I need a move list since I’ve forgotten how to do anything since the game came out 13 years ago. Can’t believe it’s been that long.
