🖥️ Building a system for a friend.

A friend of mine is looking to get a new machine. He was going to get an all-in-one Sony Vaio, but for $1600, I could build him a way better machine… Here is what I came up with so far, none of which I have checked for the best prices online yet. ATI All-In-Wonder® 9800 Pro 128MB AGP Video Card (link) - $250-400 Not sure of which case I like the Antec, he likes the Lanboy. Antec PlusView 1080AMG PC Tower Case (link) - $159 Super Lanboy Aluminum Super Mini Tower Case ( link) - $89 Athlon XP 3200 (400mhz FSB) - $111 Asus A7V600 Motherboard ( link) - $55 1GB PC3200 DDR - ( link) - $113 or maybe 2 gig for about $348 Western Digital 160GB Caviar® 7200 Hard Drive - (link) - $99

I spend way too much time f*ckin around on the computer.

Today I applied for a loan with my bank so that I might be able to get an Apple Powerbook G4. I should know by morning if I can get it or not. If so, then it’s about a week’s wait or so to get the damn thing. Also, the internet is scheduled to be hooked up on Dec 8th.. but who knows SBC is kind of slow and will prob fuck up the line install that will make so that ACD.net can’t get the DSL installed = shitty.. well check back in the afternoon to know if I spend the money on this new toy. ...

I like to burn things

Well, the new, slightly better site design is up… at least on the main page; I’m working on the gallery and then the how-to section. I will leave an update as soon as that’s complete… Also, work sucks, just like it always does. Also, if you are using Netscape or Mozilla, then you might notice that the weblog doesn’t display quite right.

I am always drunk at work so much so that when I show up sober people ask me if I'm o-kay.

This weekend… wow words cant explain. My days bled together like no other, here is a little recap. Friday I woke up @ 10am to get ready to be at work by 1pm… worked until 9pm then drove home got my costume and a change of clothes for sat. Went over to Ryan’s house for a predrinking party. Drank a beer then walked with everyone to another house party… I only stayed there for a few mins then drove to The Temple to watch Adrenachrome play, stayed there until like 1:30am then drove to get some more drinkage… Ended up back at Ryan’s house and continued to drink. It was now like 3am or so, so we decided to head to Denny’s and there was hella people there, so we drove to the gas station that my sister works at and got some bagels. We then trucked back to Ryans and then Sean came over and Amanda, Nicole, Sean, and I headed to the courts to Tail gate… Fast forward a few hours and we were really wasted and hanging out @ Ryan’s then we went to eat, yadda yadda… Sat night still hadn’t slep maybe only for like 20mins. We then ended up at Gunson drinking till I think around 4am… Sleep was good. All in all though I was up for around 42hrs and out of those 42hrs I was drinking about 31hrs… christ I will never do that again. Also the pictures can be viewed here and here. ...
