Holiday Recap
by Nathan on Nov.26, 2007
Wendsday - After work I went to Target to get a birthday card for my mom. Since it was her birthday we all decided to go out for dinner. Once I left Target I headed over to the Eagles where my parents where getting drunk. Anyways after that we went to dinner at Logans. They had the most expensive things there. By the time we were done the bill was closee to $100
Thursday - Turkey Day. Well since holidays aren’t that big of a deal in our family, I just kind of sat around all day doing nothing but watching TV, chatting with Kerri and just playing around on my computer. My mom did however make some awesome stuffing, with turkey in it. It was the best part of out Thanksgiving meal.
Friday – Being as it was Black Friday and post people didn’t go to work I stayed away from all shopping centers. I did however go to work for a little over half the day. I didn’t have anything going on so there really was no point in taking vacation time to just sit at home. I did make it over to Brian’s house where we played some Mario Galaxy. Its an awesome game. The playability is a lot like Mario64, which is awesome. One thing thats hard to get used to the concept of running around items in space, but after you do its normal. The game almost makes me want a Wii again. I also worked on getting CGI:IRC working on my server. If you use irc, you can now go to throwthemind.com/irc and use the web client to access any server, and if you noticed its all over ssh.
Saturday - Didn’t get out of bed till around 11am, then just kind of hung out at the house for a while. I then left and headed to the Narrows where I continued to hang out. Watched the 3rd Resident Evil. Pretty good movie. Stopped by Ross’s for a while, then back home. I played around with reverse proxies but didn’t get anything working.
Sunday - A no socks Sunday again. Yep I just sat round all day. Really I worked on a reverse proxy for meebo.com. I want to be able to access meebo from my own server over ssl. I also read some more in a Ruby on Rails book and created a little test app. RoR does a lot for you. Its crazy. One feature is it versions your database. So you can go back to any previous version with no problems. Its kind of cool. But also a little weird to wrap my head around.
So there you have it a rundown of my Holiday weekend. Got some server stuff done, and learned a few things, but other than that I’m kind of boring.

I’m not good at poker
by Nathan on Aug.13, 2006
First, I wanted to say that I have been seeing an awesome girl by the name of Kim. Thought you all might want to know that since this post is about playing poker with some of her friends.
So last night Kim and I want to play poker with some of her friends. What a great time I had, and what a great way to lose $3. Her friends were really cool people. Just hanging out drinking playing cards, it doesn’t seem special but its far better than the drama that used to be my ex’s friends. So needless to say, I liked hanging out with these people and they really made me feel like I fit in. Anyway on to the poker game. I bet everything I had which wasn’t much on 2 pair or 3′s and 5′s or something small like that, and was beat by 3 of a kind. So there I sat, chipless, and feeling like a looser. But I helped Kim stay in the game, to the end. She finished 3rd. She just sat there folding on like everything. She did a great job. The only think I wish is that my tumour wasn’t killing me and that I would have felt a lot better. All in all I had a wonderful time, and can’t wait to win my money back. Thanks Babe. **KISS**
