Mute Math

I'm heading to Chicago to see Mute Math today with a guy from work and a group of his friends.

I've been listening to Mute Math since they were "Earthsuit" about 10 years ago...can't wait!

twitter > blogging

Looking at my blog, I'm realizing that since I do very regular status updates on twitter/facebook that I don't blog very often.

I should probably come here when I have more to say than one sentence...but I'm just not interesting enough to do that often :)

Unbelieveable

It's becoming more difficult to say that I've seen something for the first time...but it happened today. I had parked at work and was walking one block to the building, when I came up on two boys that could have been no more than 13. They were smoking and I caught myself thinking about how young they were to be doing that. As I got closer, I smelled and saw that they were actually passing a joint back and forth as they were walking to school. Broad daylight, young teenagers, city street on their way to school. Amazing.

Kindergarten Tomorrow

I'm really excited for Kian to start Kindergarten tomorrow...but also really nervous. His peanut allergy is so severe that if not careful, things could go south quickly. I'm hoping that they will keep his Epipen in the classroom with him and that teachers will be mindful so that other kids don't eat it and then come into contact with him before washing hands, etc.

Quinn or Anderson

I never would have believed that a QB race between these two guys would still be going at this point. I get that Anderson was a Pro Bowl QB two years ago, but I have no doubt in my mind that Quinn is a vastly superior QB.

The question for me becomes, what if Anderson wins or Quinn isn't as good as I think he can be? What I want most as a Browns fan is to finally win...and I truly believe that Quinn is the guy that will help us most. I guess I just have to hope I'm right.

Hmm...

I'm debating getting LOTRO set up on my son's computer and letting him give it a whirl. He can't read yet, but I'm pretty sure if I set him up as a tank class of some kind and just teach him the basic controls that he'll do pretty well. Guess there's only one way to find out.

Kidney Stones

Well, I'm battling Kidney Stone #4 currently...which started 48 hours ago. I'm on pain meds that are taking care of the pain almost entirely, but I normally would have gotten rid of this thing by now. Here's hoping it's not too big or there's not some kind of blockage stopping it :(

First Browns Game!

I just grabbed two tickets to the Bears/Browns game on 11/1. My buddy Drew(Bears Fan) from work is going up with me. The tickets went on sale today at noon and it took me 3 hours of trying and nearly giving up before I got something decent in our price range.

We'll be sitting in section 231, row 10, seats 9-10. The seats aren't the greatest in the world but for about $115 a piece I think we did pretty well. Here's the view we'll have:

Goal Line Blitz!

I've recently come across an American Football MMO...that's so far really cool.

I'm considering starting a new team for the upcoming season and want to gauge interest. If you wanna try it...use the link below and then post your character name in response here.

Up

Kian and I finished Up today on the 360. We had a lot of fun with it...it was a good co-op adventure that was very similar to the Lego games that we enjoyed a lot. Kian continues to amaze me at how well he's learning new game mechanics. Now that we're getting low on truly co-op games to play, I think we're going to start down the list of games we have that are ok for him(Banjo Kazooie, etc) and just pass the controller back and forth as we play through the campaign.
