Turning 31

Posted in blog post by Spracky

So, on Jan 21st I turned 31.  Yippy!  Not really.  Most people don’t even believe that I am in my 30’s so; I guess that’s a good thing.  I received many nice gifts like; a Wii, a bike, Zelda for the Wii, an EB gift card, and money. These gifts don’t sound like they are for a 31 year old.  I guess you are only as old as you feel.

Pericoronitis

Posted in blog post by Spracky

I went to the dentist yesterday, because the gum over my lower right wisdom tooth was swollen, and very sensitive. I was told that I have Pericoronitis.

My dentist gave me some Penicillin, and Tylenol 3 with Codeine. He told me that all my wisdom teeth really need to come out, especially the one that is currently bothering me. He also told me that my wisdom teeth are boney, meaning attached or being held by the bone still. I am not sure if this qualifies it as an impaction or not, either way I am scared. I have never had to have any teeth pulled besides my baby teeth.

A Wii Story

Posted in blog post by Spracky

When Nintendo announced that they were coming out with a new game console called, the, “Revolution” and showed us the remote for it; I thought that it was crap. I told everyone, “That thing looks so freaking stupid” and “I am not going to buy one.” So, as time went on, Nintendo changed the name from the Revolution to the Wii, and they started to demonstrate exactly how this remote would work. Dax asked me, “are you sure you do not want one?” I still said no; however a month later, well maybe not even a month, I decided that I had to have one! So Dax started his search, and was unable to find any online for a reasonable price. He ordered what he thought was a card to pick one up from Wal-Mart, he quickly learned after he made the purchase online that it did not guarantee us the Wii, it was simply a gift card in the exact amount of a Wii. A few days past, and we received the card. We jumped into the car and headed for our local Wal-mart. I was still under the impression that this card was somehow in someway guarantying me the Wii. So I asked the lady in electronics if they had any Wii’s in? To my dismay she said, no. So I leaned over the counter and lowered my voice and said, “But I have a Wii card.” Dax started to walk away, I started to follow him, and he tried to explain to me once more that, it was just a gift card, he messed up, and I wasn’t in some secret club now just because I had a Wii card, there were none in the back, and there is no secret pass code. I thought to myself, why wouldn’t there be? People have been known to shoot each other over things like this. So for the next couple of days we continued our search by stalking the electronics department promptly at 10:00 PM when they received their shipments, and calling every; Wal-mart, Best Buy EB-Game Stop, Circuit City within a 45 mile radius everyday. Finally one day I called Wal-mart during my lunch break, and they advised me that they had just had a truck arrive to call back in 30 min. So I did, they had 2 left. I called Dax he started to run out from work to go and get it; however before he could even get half way there they sold them both. I was extremely disappointed, but this was supposed to be for my birthday and there was still time left, so I thought, well maybe tomorrow. Dax instructed me to call other Wal-marts; he thought maybe all Wal-marts might be getting them that day. So I did, turns out he was right. I called my grandmother who ran up immediately despite having her tooth pulled that morning. She called me and said, “You are now the proud owner of a Wii!”

Happy New Year!

Ok, I know I am late posting this, and yes I back dated this post, but so what.

Dax and I spent a quite evening at home, so there’s really nothing to report.  My new years resolution is to, get the hell out of this overpriced crap hole that we live in!
