Umm, Wow. Where to Begin…. Well I am back from Vegas, I Managed to not loose a ton of Money but had a lot of fun. I Played Roulette once (never had before) and Lost 5 bucks there, I Played Black Jack once and Lost 5 bucks there. and that was about it. I Did get to go to the Star Trek Experience on Thursday Night which happened to be the Grand Opening of the Borg Invasion, a new ride there. It was very Cool. I had Flaming Ribs of Targ, and Kingon Blood Wine. All in all I spent about 5 hours there. Friday was spent Flying. Saturday I was Cleaning house and did some Minor shopping, Had to get Groceries and such. Sunday I finished up the laundry and Went to see a Movie, 50 First Dates, which of course has the Amazingly Beautiful Drew Barrymore in it. And now, Back to work with me. I have a Ton to catch up on so I will prolly Expand the Blog a bit more later, But I didn’t want to leave anyone Hanging!

Damnit! I am down 1 dollar! I spent some quarters in a Slot machine and lost, go fig! Haven’t done my normal 20 bucks at the table yet so we’ll see if I am gonna be rich! It could happen! So, Am sitting at this Microsoft conference trying my darndest to understand what these people are talking about. When I am not in there I go Galavanting around Las Vegas. I have already Visited Paris (forgot my Camera there, sorry) and the Conference is in the Ventitan Hotel. We drove Past the Treasure Island Hotel, But I plan to go Back there. Managed to get to the Hard Rock Hotel where I Got my Pin (Yes I collect the Hard Rock Pins). Then we went to the Harley Davidson Store. The Hotel I am in Has lots of Cool Shows and such, Here is one of the “Living Statues”. I have some more pictures but Will need to wait until I can Charge my PDA and Upload them. Am Having a Great time and Wish you all could Join me! ——— Almost forgot, here are some Pics from the Parade!!

Greetings all and Good morning from Las Vegas!! Yup, just got in last night and What a long day yesterday was. Woke up very early, Went into DC and marched with the 501st in the St. Pattys day parade, RAN across the Mall in my armor to get back to my car, Made it out of DC by 3pm to get to my house by 3:30, dropped off stuff and got to the airport by 3:50. Here is where things got interesting. I grabbed what I needed and tossed it into a bag, Got to the counter and checked in, went to get some food and realized that I put my Phone in my Checked bag. An I forgot the charger!! Anyways, I just have to deal with that later, I make it through to the Gate ok and meet up with the 3 other people I am flying with from work. We still have time before the flight So I run down to look at the movie store. They had Logans Run on DVD for 10 bucks so I buy it, On tghe way back I check the Phone Kiosk for a travel charger and get that. Strolling back up to the gate I hear Someone calling my name. Turns out the flight started boarding and I was the last one on!!! (: Anyways, The flight was long and Hot! Got to Vegas and find out that the charger I got was the wrong one (will be returning that when I get back) Got checked in and went to have Japanese food for dinner. Afterwards I crashed! Will try and update the blog with happenings as I find Wi-Fi spots.

Would you believe I made it to bed before Midnight? Took last night Slow and did some last min Modifications to some armor pieces. Played a little SWG, But overall didn’t do much of anything. And it was nice. the downside is I still have a room Full of Crap. I don’t know when I Will EVER be able to actually sit and clean that room up. I almost feel like I need someone to Sit over mu shoulder and say “You really Don’t need that”. Any Volunteers? Bring a Shovel! Actually it’s times like this when I really wish I had my Truck already. Would be easier to just Load stuff up in the Truck and Take it to the trash. Should be a slow night. May write more later.

My Days Slow down in Intensity as a prepare for the coming storm. Today is Wed. Friday see’s the return of an old friend and a much needed soul search. Sunday is the Parade and my First Step into the 501st. I regret only that I must leave the Parade no Later than 3pm as I have to be at the Airport at 4 for a 5:50 Flight to Vegas where I spend the entire week Learning about Microsoft and their Borg like ways (I say this knowing That I have barely touched anything except a Windows machine). When I return, More Soul Searching, and then Rest. Wow, I am feeling very Melancholy today. What’s up with that? Well tonight I will spend a quiet evening at home alone, Contemplating my existence, Or Playing Galaxies, Or Working on Armor, Something like that. /sigh

[Breathing Huge Sigh of Relief] After a Full afternoon of Maddening running around and taking care of things, The Financial issue I had is resolved and all is well. I look at the next two weeks and realize that I am going to be One Busy Mo-Fo! The Rest of this week I have to Clean and Prep because Next week I am flying to Vegas all week. This coming weekend I am Hosting a Very Special Visitor in my life. Sunday I will be marching in a Parade, The Inaugural Showing of my Scout Armor. When I get back I have one More weekend with my Visitor, Then back to work, I am thinking that the weekend after that I will be Relaxing at Home and Trying Desperately to Clean up my Den (aka, the Sighing Room). I have avoided it for Far too Long and all it’s doing is getting worse. It’s finally time to HOUSE CLEAN (it is Spring you know) But thats not for another 2 weeks. Good Gods, I remember the time when I Never planned that far in advance, what’s happened to me!!!!

Check out the POTM to See the Coolest thing that Happened to me over the weekend. I have been Transformed!!! Just waiting on my TB ID number from 501st and it will be official! Hehehe So yeah Sunday we put it all together at Lori’s Place, even Had Ken Knight and Cricket stop by to help out. Big thanks to everyone! This would have to be one of those Childhood Dreams come true. Ever since ROTJ I have LOVED the Biker Scouts, and now I am one! I will be marching with the 501st in the St. Patty’s Day Parade going through DC so Keep an eye out for us if your In the Area. Will prolly do an Update a little later on.

UPDATE: Just finished Painting my Pistols!!!! I finished Building the Scout Blaster and Received my Orange Kenner DL-44 from E-bay so Tonight I painted!!! Also I have been informed that I will have an Awesome weekend, Especially Sunday! So make sure you check back here for all the Updates!

It’s Friday!!! WhooHoo!!! Time to go out and…. Oh wait, that involves money. Damnit. Ok uess I will stay home and Play Galaxies. I so need a new First person Shooter. The Twitch Gamer in me is, well, Twitching. I need Fast movement and Swing Around And Rockets Flying and Oh OH OH!!!!! When does Tribes Vengence come out? Or even Star Wars Battlefront Sigh, Anyways. Will also be working on my Armor some more. I have one Pouch done! Hey it’s a start. You may notice some more work done on the site, I added a frame for the POTM so it’s actually it’s own page now instead of just the picture. I believe I fixed the Camera now so it won’t be quite so out of Focus, That drop at Farpoint kinda messed it up. Maybe this weekend I will work on some Roll over Buttons for the Menu. Any other Suggestions of things to Add? Well This weekend might turn out pretty Boring, At the rate I am going on some of this Sewing, I may not have everything done by Sunday. Sigh, I know the Gods are Looking Down at me and Laughing.

You know, One of these Days I might actually try this Sleeping thing I have heard so much about. Been pretty busy the last few days. My Scout Blaster is All finished except for Painting. well see if I can manage that tonight, but it’s been raining so I don’t want to paint if it’s too Humid. Will Take pictures when it’s done and Post them. Went to Lori’s last night to work on the Soft parts of my Armor, while there we Realized that it’s going to be a bit harder then we imagined. I will have to do a lot of hand sewing because the Cloth is Too thick for a normal sewing Machine. I think that one of my future investments will be a Strong Sewing machine. Especialy if I am going to be doing more Costuming. So I will spend the next few days Handsewing my pouches and such. It would seem that, Hopefully, Sunday will be the Big Day, I will Finaly be in all Armor by then and Should ahve some pictures for you. Cross your Fingers!! Oh yeah, by the way, I have totaly re-written my About Me Page Go check it out!
