I was in the middle of setting up my desk and chair that I got from Ikea (it's a name of a person [its founder] and prounounced "ick-yeeaah" not "eye-kee-aah") when Mark decided to call me back. They were at East Side Marios!

*zoom zoom*

Had tasty Lasagna with Bryna, Gord, and Mark then headed over to Gords house where I watched "Meet The Parents" (last time I saw that, was in Perth with Chrissy).

Came back home and finished up with the assembly of Ikea goods. Looks pretty snappy. It would look even more snappier in my brothers old room (right now the stuff is in the other guestroom). I totally want to redo that room, there are so many things I saw last week at Ikea that would suit it well. I will have to convince my mom to let me use that room instead (since it already has ethernet too).

I had originally thought that I was heading over to my counsins place tomorrow, alas my mom meant today. That's fine, I didn't have any plans anyways. Will be nice to see how much the kids have grown! Not to mention the new house they bought.

Speaking of housing... I had gotten a lead for a place on King street last week. She was supposed to get back to me with her details, but never did. Ahh well.

Travel website coming along slowly but surely. Since its so "dynamic", I have to do 3 or 4 times the work. For example, I have a few different headers that appear when you load the page, so I have to treat each image, slice it, save it, etc.. Adobe ImageReady is good!

I think I am going to have to install windows for my mp3 player. I should be getting the LCD back from James Tuesday or Wednesday. I have been playing with the winamp plugin on my laptop (it comes with an emulator). It's super powerful and James says it works with the LCD. Once its in place, the box will pretty much be finished.

The people I bought my latest 1U case from decided to ship a cdrom and floppy to me, since it didn't come with the case as advertised - yay! Also CBC sent me an invoice for the duty charges, not a biggie, and I was expecting it.

I subscribed to yet another mailing list. "Macweenies" this time. It's a list about Mac hardware and such. You can find the archives here. For those if you in the know, I hope "Marklar" really is true :D

Already in the mid way point for October! 1 month left for me to park on the street. Come November 15th, I am going to have to start parking in the garage or risk a fine.

And last but not least, plans for going to the Ski and Snowboard show this Saturday are still a go. Not sure how we are going to arrange car/travel, especially since I am already in the city. I'm sure things will go smoothly.
