Things to do on your day off

I started my day off right with a bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch and the latest episodes of The Totally Rad Show and InDigital before going out.  Boyd sent me an IM telling me that it was going to be a good day, I agreed with him.  The first stop of the day was for a cup of my favorite coffee, I decided to go with a lighter tasting roast then I normally get and they recommenced the Brazil Yellow Bourbon.  It was indeed a lighter tasting coffee, and it had the effect of a lighter coffee too, but more on that later.

My next stop was the Wonderful Muffler Man because my car started sounding like a race car.  I’ve always thought muffler businesses were a little funny because half of their business is making cars not sound like race cars, the other half is to make cars sound more like race cars, my purpose was the former of the two.  I’ve gone to the Wonderful Muffler Man before and I would recommenced it to you for all of your muffler needs.  While I was sitting in the waiting room the effects of the light roast caffeine started to hit me and my stomach got all queeze and my hands started to shake, the coffee was taking over and I needed to get some food… but food wouldn’t come anytime soon.  My problem ended up being a bracket for the exhaust system broke causing a pipe to sag and eventually create a hole, total repair was under a hundred dollars.  The owner commented on my Mystery Science Theater 3000 window cling and said that he has been a big fan since way back in the local broadcast days.  He even went to the live shows that they did, that would have been so cool.

My new house is going to need a wireless router so after the car repair I hopped on over to Best Buy.  My plan is to get another wrt54g, the same thing I’m using right now, it’s cheap and reliable… or so I thought.  Best Buy wanted $70 bucks for that!  Can you believe that?  That should be a $40-$50 device these days.

I’ve thought about going with the Linksys Draft N router and try and get those 600mb speeds but at a $140 price point I think I’ll save my money.

The CompUSA in Roseville is closing, so I dropped in there to see if I could find some bargains on networking stuff, no deal.  But I did find a couple of the USB headsets that I use, the Logitech 350, so I bought those and I’m going to send one to Doc and the other to Seth for the Yo-Yo Wiki Podcast.

I left CompUSA and walked down the strip mall hoping to find a food place before I fell over with death.  There was a Vietnamese place that looked interesting, but it wasn’t a buffet or anything and I didn’t want something that would cost too much.  Then Chris Myers from MoYo called me up to talk about Missouri States.  He told me all about the venue, The City Museum, which sounds very cool.  And I told him that I would host his websites, so look for moyo.us and moyostates.com very soon.  Chris is really planning the shit out of this event and I think the outcome is going to be fantastic.  As I talked to Chris I drove across the city looking for good food to eat and I ended up at Dino’s Gyros, have you ever had a meal that was just exactly perfect and tasted like food made for a god?  That’s how that Gyro effected me today.

When I got home this afternoon I boxed up the headsets and watched Tenacious D and The Pick of Destiny, I freaking love that movie.  Then about twenty minutes ago I started writing this blog, my wife called me to tell me to put in a pizza and now I am done writing this blog.  How meta was that?
