Custom Tag

I would like opinions on a custom tag. I have a couple of different thoughts, and would like some feedback.

Choices:
LIC PLAT (License Plate, this is more of a joke).
ALRDY NO (Already know… I want You Already Know, but don’t know how to fit it in).
DO U
WHP IT HD (Whip it hard).
These are just a few that I’ve thought of, the first one being more of a joke, but still an option. Let me know what you think of these or what else might be cool (I would get DO YOU or DO YEW etc if DO U is taken).

What’s Happenin’?

As of right now, Maggie seems to be doing ok, sometimes seeming a little different (maybe sad) but I can’t tell that much.  I have a test in about a week in my Account class (this first part is essay only) and then I have more midterms coming up.  All 3 of my classes are midterm/final based, unlike most of my undergraduate which had tests throughout the semester.  I just recently bought an iPod conversion kit that is specifically made for BMW’s and will work with my DSP so I can access the iPod through the front stereo and using my stereo controls of my steering wheel.  It will also display the names of the songs, etc. on my stereo because of the DSP converter.  Besides that, I played a little softball last night (I was the catcher) and my legs are killing me for squating for 2 hours.  Nothing else is that exciting, the rest of school is going ok, and Maggie is enjoying her walks and rides.  I’ll let you know of any excitement as it happens.

Goodbye Daisy Mae
icon1 nick | icon2 Life | icon4 09 25th, 2006| icon31 Comment »

As of 10:00 a.m. this morning, Daisy Mae is no longer with us. She was a good dog, even the people at the Vet talked about how nice and sweet she was. I am sad for my mother most of all because she was so close to Daisy. Maggie hasn’t seemed to realize (if she will) what happened to her sister or where she’s gone. Just makes me sad to see my dog lying there not moving, not wagging her tail. But I believe Daisy is better off and I know she knows we love her. She will be missed.

So at around 10 pm tonight, my mother will arrive from her flight from Tampa.  I woke up this morning with a list of things to clean in the house to make sure she doesn’t get disgusted by the house.  Well apparently last night, the wind shattered the patio table glass.  After around 10 minutes of cleaning I realized there were shards of glass stuck in my feet.  So after trying to pick them out in running water, I decided to continue cleaning up the mess.  It took around 45 minutes, which is more time than I wanted to spend cleaning it up.  As I look on my list of things to clean, I would guess that I have around 65% of the chores to finish.  I really hate cleaning this house, but like I’ve heard throughout my life, “it’s not going to clean itself.”  But look on the bright side, my Mom is coming to town, and I look forward to seeing her.  If anyone wants to stop by and help, give me a call, I’d gladly take it (and I’d gladly feed you in return).

The internet at work!

There are many people that get bored during work, nothing new. With the internet though there are tons of fun videos to watch, games to play, and things to read. When I am looking for something to do at work, here are some of the places I frequent:

New Cars.
icon1 nick | icon2 Life | icon4 09 6th, 2006| icon32 Comments »

So as of yesterday, I am the proud owner of a 2001 BMW 540i.  It is silver, with black leather interior and comes with the sports package (and premium package).  This car has so many features I have to read my owner’s manual to figure everything out.  It even has a stopwatch!  I’m really enjoying it even though I’ve driven it for less than 2 days.  Below are some photos on my flickr where I have posted pictures of my BMW and ::justin(”)::’s Denali.  Here is a link that shows the specs for my car.  It has all the options available except for the phone (but I have the button like I could use the phone).
