My birthday went pretty well. I ended up getting far too much stuff from Jenny and Mark, the Pikmin remake for Wii from my sister, and a 16GB iPod nano from my brother. Holy crap, nano's are expensive I don't know how he did it. Oh yeah, shirts from my parents, and they helped with the nano. From the Home Depot: I got promoted; went to training this Monday & Tuesday. Comes with a bit of a raise, but all of our managers are stupid and don't know anything about anything. Probably because we used to have people whose job it was to know this but have since been let go.

So far the promotions been pretty nice though. It's a cool change of pace and all in all, I'd say it's an easier job. I've been looking to get the promotion for quite a while now too, so I'm happy it finally came around.

I more or less gave myself a birthday present too, considering how much the parts cost me... Think I had a pretty good birthday this year. Now to look what I got last year and compare to myself. ... ... Hmm. Hard to say. Both were good.

Other news... I started up Kingdom Hearts 2, which I've had wrapped in celophane for probably close to two years now, waiting for me to finish KH1... which I never did. Too lazy to grind high enough to beat the final boss. So far I'd say it's probably a better game. But I haven't played it much. I guess 6 hours doesn't count as much at least...

I finished reinstalling Windows yesterday, took me a whole lot of time to get it working... The install disc I was using didn't ask which partition to install windows on, so I eventually had to unplug my other two hard drives. Working now though. Need to get a firewall again, the default Windows firewall probably doesn't cut it, whether I'm behind a router or not.

I felt stupid when I realized that the txt file I had on my desktop with all my passwords was encrypted... Looks like if I can't remember it I'll have to go the long way on a lot of webpages to get passwords again. Upsetting because I had a bunch of other useful things in that file too. Oh well. Didn't lose anything else yet, that's the good news.

Mmm. Good enough for now.
