Good Times

This weekend was a blast. Dustin and Hunter visited and Alexis had a birthday. Friday night Alexis and I went over to my Mom’s place and had dinner, tried to watch Galaxy Quest, and talked all night. We took some pictures of Hunter that I may post sometime this week. Sunday, Alexis and I went out to eat at Genghis Grill and went shopping. Alexis bought some boxes to put her colored pencils in and a cordless mini-mouse for her netbook. On a side note, I keep forgetting to tell my Dad that if he doesn’t mind a tiny 10″ screen, that a netbook is very affordable and probably all he needs.

I ended up buying EA NHL’09, which I had downloaded as a demo on the 360. I still need to keep playing the games in my back log, but couldn’t resist picking it up. It’s just too much fun. Maybe I can guide the Dallas Stars to victory in the game, because their season looks like it will end soon. I’m not confident that they can make it to the playoffs. In fact odds are they won’t make it, if I understand this website correctly. Richards broke his left hand in the last game just as he was returning from a right wrist injury. So the Stars can’t seem to find any luck, much less the back of the net.

Times, they are a changing.

Here’s another picture from outside my window at work.




They are certainly making progress on the apartments across the street. I’m hazarding a guess that in a year or so the building I’m working in is going to be bought out. In its place will probably be more apartments.

Below is a view down the street. The street and sidewalks have been torn up.
