No real big news to share, just some quick updates.

House warming party will be this Friday the 28th. I will be sure to take pictures.

Speaking of pictures check out the Misc. page as I have updated it with about a hundred photos from the last couple of months.

I have gotten my back-up PC running so I can play World of Warcraft again. I also got my replacement aqua pump in the mail today so I can see if I can fix my main machine tomorrow.

No big news to post. Just thought I would update with the mundane since my last post.

The guy I showed the place to said he would like to move in on November 1st so I will not have to sell organs to make the house payment now.

MINI is still running good.

I was going to post pictures of my new place and MINI yesterday but the pictures I have on file so far are taken as I was moving in and the place is pretty empty. I will try and remember to take new pictures tonight so you can see my awesome decorating job.

I have been given a plant as a house warming gift and so the count down of how long before I kill it is on.

I am thinking this weekend I may have a house warming party before the new roommate moves in. If that happens I will try and get some pictures of the crew there.

So the site has gone through a reboot and all pre-Stikfas comics have been removed. I still have some site updates to hit, here and there like converting my Money page to the Misc. page. I also got rid of my role-playing page. I may bring that back in the future if I start role-playing again.

I have a guy coming to take a look at my place tomorrow to see if he would like to be my renter/roommate. I know the guy slightly from the bars and from little I know of him he seems like a good guy. I will be looking for $600 a month. I hope he takes the place because otherwise I will be broke in July.

I am sure I can find a renter before then but I would much prefer it to be someone I have met rather then post an ad in the paper.

In other news, I got the MINI. I have some pics of the trip and of the car. I also have pics of the new place I bought. I will try and get around to posting those soon.

And finally I will be going back to Minnesota for a week in December to have my teeth checked out by my mom and to visit friends. Then if everything checks fine on my teeth I go back in May to be her boards patient.

FINALLY! I just got the e-mail from Capital One that they are sending me my check so I can pick up my MINI this weekend.

The issue was that I could not prove where I lived. I just moved in last week, I didn't have any utility bills nor did I have any utilities in my name before moving here. All my paperwork for loan approval did not meet their criteria. And the soonest I was going to get a bill statement or online statement from my cable or power would be 30 days.

I finally got the papers I signed at closing mailed to me this week on Monday and in those were a Housing and Urban Development document I signed that they would accept.

Now I just need to setup a time to pick up my MINI this weekend as me and all my friends head down to Denver to go see comedian Dane Cook.

I am so happy right now. Now with less stress about worry about getting financing I will not jones so bad for smokes since quitting.
