Well, I dunno that I can say I had a good weekend. I did manage to hurt the hell outta my ankle, my knee, and various lifting muscles that I don’t normally believe in using. Yeah, helped my brother move to his first house. And a nice house it is, very nice indeed.

Of course, it’s no 50 year old mouse infested house with a leaky roof and peeling paint outside, but it’ll do.

But I wrenched the heck out of my ankle. Dunno what I did to the knee. So I’m kinda slow and hoppy today. I should have blown the leaves around my yard a bit, but just wasn’t up to it.

Anyway, Halloween this week, so here is one of the single most annoying songs ever made.

I hate the monster mash.

You know, my new power supply was making some godawful noise. It was a 'namebrand' generic, because I don't care all that much. Power supplies die, I don't care who makes the damn things. Anyway, I thought, did my practice of going cheap on power supplies finally catch up to me? It was sounding like the fan was throwing off its bearings. Turns out, it was a little tiny piece of transparent plastic film that came off of....I dunno what, but I know it is somehow kid related.
