This Week In Chris...

This week I've been keeping pretty busy with work and school as usual. I've been hanging out with some friends and trying to keep things clean at the apartment. My car's been in the shop since last Friday and I've been borrowing a friends car the last few days which has been a life saver (thanks Bryan!!!). I can't wait to get it back soon but the $300.00 price tag hurts my wallet / debt. I just hope that all is well and that it runs alright. I passed my Managment Decision Making class (which I was terrified over) so there is still hope of me graduating in December of this year. I can't wait to be done with this stress from school, etc. Well, I'm off to 'try' to pay attention in class now (which is where I'm at). Wish me luck on my other studies.

Buzz Out Loud Podcast

Today I was featured on the Buzz Out Loud podcast from cnet.com.

Basically it's this:
"Buzz Out Loud is CNET's "podcast of indeterminate length," featuring Tom, Molly, and producer Veronica's entertaining, sometimes caustic, and always skeptical take on technology news. This daily podcast features commentary, guests, and phone calls and e-mail from our listeners."

Notes on the Episode:
10/12/06 - I see brandy
We never said our titles had to make sense. It seems that China is taking steps to open up the Internet to their citizens. It's unblocked most of Wikipedia, with the exception of a few vital bits of information. Also today, Sony is bringing back the MiniDisc. Nah, I'm just foolin' ya! It's the Walkman.

Keeping up with life...

Right now I'm in class typing on my blog instead of paying attention to what's going on. I tend to get lost easily in this class. It's basically a re-hash of a class that I've already had (and didn't understand fully then). Today I had class this morning and right now. This afternoon I spent most of my time cleaning up a little bit as well as relaxing. I love that I have Wed. / Thurs. off of work but school can still take a lot out of you. I have Saturdays off because everyone needs one day a week where there's no work / school / obligations. It was my father's birthday on Oct. 1. I tried calling him with no luck at all. I'll probably try again tomorrow morning. With any luck I can chat with him and catch up. I've also got this package that I've been meaning to ship to him. It's full of lots of goodies. I hope he likes them. I'm at a loss for what to say right now besides rambling on about religious beliefs, etc. but I don't have the resources to pull from that I would need right now. Well, I hope that you all have a great evening. Happy

Later,

Chris
