Music Freedom

Published by Elemak under Entertainment

Amazon has a digital music store now! Not sure if you all have heard about it or not, knowing my friends I am sure at least half of you have. The reason I am excited about this is because they are selling DRM free MP3s. Up to this point I could buy something from iTunes for use on my Nano, but could not burn that to a MP3 cd to use in the car.

Not only the hight level of portability, yes I know other people has some music that is the same, but it is also cheaper than iTunes. Anyway just wanted to make sure everyone knew about it. Also I know there are other stores other than iTunes, but it is the only one I have experience with so that is the example you get.

Clowns

Published by Elemak under Entertainment, Health, Photo, Random, Weekend, Work

What a weekend. Mostly good, but some not good. I am sure most of the not good is a result of me letting myself get more tired than I have been in a really long time.

Friday hung out with my girls for a couple of hours and then went to a coworker’s place where he was cooking the food for the company get together on Saturday. I stayed way to late, but did get to have some ribs right off the smoker thing that were pretty much the best I have ever had.

Saturday was ok. Lots of work people who I don’t really know. Clowns showed up and I was a little freaked out. By the end of the thing I as hanging around the clowns more than anyone I work with. Funny how that is huh? Guess I just don’t fit it, or the people I fit in with had already left. Saturday night I don’t really remember a whole lot of I was tired and not thinking clearly.

Sunday, which is normally always a good day was not so much. I got made fun of a bunch by the kid. Normally it is no big deal we all just joke around, but this time it got to me, of course I did not let them know that they were just being kids like always. I was just so tired. Then I get to the apartment and every little thing that was out of place was like someone hammering bamboo under my finger nails. I think sleep would be good for me right now.

How far we’ve come

Published by Elemak under Entertainment

Waking up at the start of the end of the world,
but its feeling just like every morning before,
now I wonder what my life is going to mean if its gone,
the cars are moving like a half a mile an hour if that
I started staring at the passengers waving goodbye
can you tell me what was ever really special about me all this time

but I believe the world is burning to the ground
oh well I guess we’re gonna find out
let’s see how far we’ve come
let’s see how far we’ve come

Well I, believe, its all, coming to an end
oh well, I guess, we’re gonna pretend,
let’s see how far we’ve come
let’s see how far we’ve come

I think its turning to a crock but I don’t really know
I can’t remember caring for an hour or so
started crying and I couldn’t stop myself
I started running but there was no where to run to
I sat down on the street and took a look at myself
said where you going you know the world is heading for hell
say your goodbyes if you’ve got someone you can say goodbye to

I believe the world is burning to the ground
oh well I guess we’re gonna find out
let’s see how far we’ve come
let’s see how far we’ve come

Well I, believe, its all, coming to an end
oh well, I guess, we’re gonna pretend,
let’s see how far we’ve come
let’s see how far we’ve come

its gone gone baby its all gone
there is no one on the corner and there’s no one at home
it was cool cool, it was just all cool
now it’s over for me and it’s over for you
well its gone gone baby its all gone
there is no one on the corner and there’s no one at home
well it was cool cool, it was just all cool
now it’s over for me and it’s over for you

but I believe the world is burning to the ground
oh well I guess we’re gonna find out
let’s see how far we’ve come
let’s see how far we’ve come
Well I, believe, its all, coming to an end
oh well, I guess, we’re gonna pretend,
let’s see how far we’ve come
let’s see how far we’ve come
let’s see how far we’ve come
let’s see how far we’ve come
let’s see how far we’ve come
let’s see how far we’ve come
let’s see how far we’ve come
let’s see how far we’ve come
let’s see how far we’ve come

Vista

Published by Elemak under Entertainment, Random

I don’t know if I mentioned it or not but I ordered the stuff for my new computer. The last of it got her Monday. So I am now playing on the new machine which is running Vista. So far I am really liking Vista. It is not perfect, but over all most of my issues have been fixed by updating a driver or two. Oh and my DVD drives disappeared, but Dusty was able to tell me how to fix that.

To try out the new computer I also purchased Bioshock. Good game so far, great graphics and sound. The only thing I don’t like about it is that it creeps me out. I don’t do scary things very well.

Short entry, but just wanted to let everyone one know why I have not been around a whole lot.

Flame Less Auto

Published by Elemak under Entertainment, Photo, Weekend

Got the car all fixed up Saturday just like I had planed. While they were working on it I walked down to river front and took a few pictures. It was a pretty nice and relaxing walk. I was nice and a picture of a couple of older ladies front of a sign. One of them had a kind of creep laugh, but other than that was a good walk.

I had been gone an hour and a half when I made it back to the Nissan place, so I stopped in to see if my car was ready yet before I walked on. Turns out it was ready so I got in and drove off. About 5 minutes after I left I get a call from the Nissan place to let me know my car was ready. I said ok thanks and went on. If I really wanted to I could really messed with that guy.

After downtown I went Murfreesboro to walk the part of the green way that I had not been on yet. It ended up being about 3 or so miles one way. I did not take any pictures on the way in planning on taking them on the way out. By the time I was on the way out I no longer wanted to take pictures I just wanted to get back to the car.

Sunday was church, lunch at Longhorn (great cheese burger by the way), and then helping Kate and Brook move.

Monday I had my first really lazy day I have had in a really long time. Other than going to buy food I did nothing. I watched all of Lord of the Rings. It has been a long time since I had watch them so it was nice to just relax and not have to worry about doing anything.
