June 26, 2003 Going to call it an early night tonight, I was up till 5am the night before reading the Harry Potter book. Its pretty sad that i am over half way through it and i got it on Monday. I cant help it, the book is that good. Its alot darker then the last four which i was kinda expecting, but it still surprised me. So in the meantime instead of reading, I been playing with Thunderbird as a replacement to Outlook XP. So far from playing with it for a few moments i am really digging the client. I’ll do a more in depth review on it when i get a chance to play with it some more.
In other news, Microsoft released service pack 4 for Windows 2000 today. I’m going to have to pick that up and install it on the laptop at some point. I’ll just add it to the list of all the crap i need to get done.
Ok off to bed, i am beat and need to get up in the morning to run some errands.

June 24, 2003 Well i am back from Letchworth and let me tell you it was awesome. Amanda and I had a great time and saw a great deal of things around the park. I have pics up which can be found here. I was going to use gallery to show them in, but due to the fact i dont have a shell access on this server i can’t set it up. I’m currently looking at doing a homebrew solution but its going to be awhile before i can cook something up. I’ll also have the pics up from Stigilmeyer and the gardens up when i get home.

June 19, 2003 Its long weekend time!!! tomorrow is Amanda and I’s trip to sunny Letchworth Park in NY. Its going to take about an hour and 20 minutes to get there from my house. I so cant wait, its going to be really nice out and i want to hit as many trails as possible and see some of the other stuff thats around. When we get back i am going to work on a photogallery for the pics we took, plus the ones from the botantical gardens, and the ones from Stigelmeyer Park. I been meaning to get them up for a long time, so i wont do anything else till that happens 
In other news The new Harry Potter book is comming out this weekend, only down side is we will be out of town and wont be able to pick it up till Monday earliest. I so cant wait, its been too long since the last came out and i know i am going to have to wait a while after reading it to get the new one. But thats ok, I could always work on Steven King’s Dark Tower series to hold me over till then.
Also there is a bunch of PC games comming out with in the next week or 2 that i really would like to get. Two of them are expansions, one for Warcraft 3 called The Frozen Throne . The other is for Neverwinter Nights and its called
Shadows Of Undrentide. I really cant wait for these, espcially the NWN one. Its going to add a ton of new stuff to play around with from a modding aspect. I also been looking into starting up Star Wars Galaxies , the reason being is that currently i am playing AC2. Which in my opinion is done. The game is hosed and the only people to blame is the development team and managers. Between the inability to keep the chat and auth servers stable, to doing massive changes to the game for the worse and introducing even more problems its not worth the $13.00 a month anymore. I remember beta testing it back before it came out and it wasnt as bad as it is now. I can expect bugs and possibly game mechanic overhauls in beta and possibly within the first few months of going live. But its been 7+ months and its just one disaster after another. So more the likely i am going to cancel my account within the week and when i get a chance pick up SWG.

June 16, 2003 and i cant sleep, i just got done doing a 2 hour reading session. I been working on Book 2 of Steven King’s Dark Tower series, which is called “The Drawing of The Three”. So far its got me pretty hooked, because if a book sucks i wont be able to read it at all. From what i heard the series is 7 parts. So far the first 4 are out and the last 3 are finished but not published yet.
The weather has been getting nicer, thats why i havent been on the PC as much (which is why the updates have been comming as frequent either). My parents are going to fix up the mountain bike for me as my birthday present from them. Which is cool because i been really jonesing to start riding again. I also hope that it continues to stay nice all week and the upcomming weekend. Amanda and i are going to Letchworth for an extended weekend get away
We will be going up friday night and staying at the Country Inn and Suites, we were going to be staying at the Glenn Iris Inn but they were booked full. We’ll have a digital camera and my laptop so there will be no problems as far as pictures go. That reminds me, i still have pictures from the botanical gardens and Stigelmeyer park i need to put up. I think that will be my project for this week.
Well i am going to surf the web a bit and call it a night, i have a ton of crap to do before heading out to work in the afternoon
