Flying complete

We've finally finished our flights, which were fun except for a little ear trouble. We got a nice dark red Ford Explorer and were met at the airport by Jen's mom. It took much longer than we expected to drive from RDU to Williamsburg, but we finally made it at about 1:30am. We're staying at Great Wolf Lodge, which I've decided has to be the most awesome hotel ever. It's so kid friendly and we are having such a good time.

While we were there, we went to Colonial Williamsburg of course, but we also played at the hotel a lot. The Magiquest game was AWESOME, the indoor water park fun, and the breakfast buffet good. It was really really cool.

Vacation and Anniversary

Today is our eighth anniversary. Happy happy joy joy!!! :)

We're leaving today for Williamsburg VA, then traveling down the Outer Banks and to Wallace NC, where Jen's mom lives. Looking forward to it!

D&D

We just today bought Dungeons & Dragons - The Complete Animated Series (1983). I loved that as a kid. I can't wait to watch it again.

Lip Dubs

If you haven't seen the Lip Dub of “Flagpole Sitta” done by the gang at Connected Ventures (the company behind CollegeHumor and Vimeo) then watch it! It's awesome. Me and Bren have watched it over and over.

Then see the neat ones that Digg and Rev3 did here.

Virginia

We're going to Virginia soon. I'm driving thru this. We're doing some other stuff too.

Vacation
All I ever wanted
Vacation
Had to get away

I rock

Thursday I passed a certification test and in one fell swoop got my general Microsoft Certified Systems Administrator (MCSA) cert and my MCSA: Messaging cert. So now, I have proven that I know my shit when it comes to Exchange Server. And fuck you Martin for insinuating that I didn't know it back in the day too. Cuz I did, ya schmuck.

I am very happy. A few more tests and I'll have my updated MCSE.

My Shirt

Someone asked me today in a Starbucks what I blog about. My answer: oh not much in the last 6 months, but mostly my kids. She said she keeps a craft blog. Hmmm, sounds about as interesting as my kid blog. hehe.

I was wearing my Blogger T-shirt, which is why she asked.

While we're on the subject or Starbucks, am I the only one that feels like an outsider there? Every time I've gone in one (which must be only 4 or 5 times ever), I feel like I'm not supposed to be there and that I'm an idiot. I don't know what their stupid size names are -Venti, Vici, Vodi or something. If life were up to me, all sizes would be in ounces and you'd be able to specify exactly what you wanted.

"Hello, welcome to Micky D's drive thru window."
"Yeah chicky, I want two 3 ounce burgers with cheese, a 6 ounce fry, a 14 ounce strawberry milkshake, and 2 ounces of ketchup, no make it 3, please."
"Yes, sir, commin right up."

That'd be my ideal drive up window.

Speaking of drive up windows, where the heck are the outsourced order takers that I read about months ago. The people who are trained to take orders fastly and correctly? And where are the ordering kiosks if you want to go in? I don't want to talk to some minimum wage moron that is going to get my order wrong anyway. Let me tap it into a machine instead, please.

Shirt on me

I'm wearing my freakin' awesome Blogger T-shirt. I just wanted everybody to know that.
