First to those that are of the US....enjoy the day. Paid holiday, food, beer, and fireworks....what more can one ask? For those that aren't from the US....well have the food and beer anyway. (Disclaimer...if under the legal drinking age I can only recommend root beer - enjoy it at your own risk.)

Yesterday at 330 PM EDT I started vacation. Yay! I don't have to return until the 13th. I had to shorten my vacation by one day since they are implementing a new system at work. And I totally agree with the sentiment you want something done right....do it yourself. So back I go. Thus far, every new change has been a disaster and step back. This will be no different as we are losing necessary capabilities for upwards of a year. Government.....if it works we'll break it.

Will be celebrating J's birthday at the end of the week so I'm trying to think of interesting activities for the week. Movies on said birthday are a tradition. Transformers 2 seems to be getting bad reviews though J liked the first movie and wants to see the second. Too bad the new Harry Potter movie comes out after since J has taken a likely to those movies.

I have my employees trained well. Now when The Cure comes on the radio my assistant goes back to turn it up. Saves me a few steps. Most of them recognize the band as well. I get told when they are played and I'm not at work. Now if only I could get them to do their job as diligently. Oh well....at least the important things are done.

Anyway, just stopped in to blog because it's a holiday and seems to give me a subject at least. Level 59 lasted only 5 days so I've been Level 60 for a bit. Not as fast. But Master Chief am I.

Again....have a good day whether American or not. It IS Saturday after all. Peace out and thanks for reading....

And finally bought a PS3. Happened to be at a Toy R Us and they didn't have a very good selection for games, plus J was with me so I picked up a game that he could play as well. So Little Big Planet it is. Currently in use. I have exactly one blu ray disc already.

Set up the PS3 and connected it to surround sound....Yay. Hope to buy more games in the future and get the PS3 as well as the Xbox360 and Wii on line so I can purchase some less expensive games.

Thanks for the advice and I'll definitely be picking up a lot of the recommended games.

After spending all year on Level 58 I have finally moved on and became a Virtual Hustler. Interesting name that is....since I'm already at 12% I'm going to guess this level will go faster than the last. Of course, it didn't help that I lost a a couple levels. Still it's nice to move past 58.

In other news I have gotten some repairs done to the house and now it only awaits the new roof. I have decided I shall probably possess a PS3 within the next week or so. *crosses fingers*

I did get all my E3 emblems....thanks to the dude in charge. And made a temporary tiny change to my sig.

--Peace Out
