Ye Gods!

so, the birthday season is officially over after last night. Had dinner yesterday with Uncle Tim and Elaine at Maudie's after Epics. It was great. both the first mate and i had the verde chicken enchiladas. We had great conversation with the elders. Elaine's a total lefty like us.
Sunday (my birthday) i got my new laptop. It's the HP DV2221us. The screen is a 14.1", but it's great. it's very similar to the first mate's, but smaller. Civ 4 and WoW work well on it. i finally got vilduil's lockpicking past 300 so i can pick Outland chests and lockboxes. woohoo!
