right away but my Internet was down. I was too busy with FL9 but noticed it when Anne called. it was a real bummer because that meant that last night was going to be dreadful.
We placed a couple of irate calls and before missing the Grey Cup game this afternoon. Al's won 21-18, I came back into the office and found out the modem box lights are all lit up. Indicating we're back in business--maybe. Anne's got the TV on another "Channel" I can't get to our service provider one to see if all channels are clear, At least my ITouch is working. Anne came home just briefly about 10 minutes ago and stepped out to do some shopping and she doesn't know the good news yet. We're not out of the woods yet though.
Yesterday I was informed that there would be no late afternoon shift and even though I could have used the hours and all, I was grateful as Vinny download FL9 onto my laptop from his USB drive but it wouldn't work. Packing up my laptop in my knapsack we went to his place (across the street from Grant MacEewan University) he ended up getting the whole program installed with no trouble. It works great even now. I figured after that was done, why not take the #2 bus and head over to Wendy's and get a burger for my lunch. Why not get a bottle of diet Coke, wait for the #2 but I was to far East and missed the connection. After wandering around the downtown core, trying to figure out where to go get a bite to eat I found myself outside City Centre mall and decided to go in. Rider jerseys everywhere. Then I decided I hadn't been to Sizzling Wox in a long time. They changed the company name but it's still the same place. I bought 2 orders of Chinese and and a diet Coke, sat down at an empty table and enjoyed my lunch. On my way to Coles, Ebay games was still there. I looked around and they have some used copies of Assasin's Creed 2. At $27 the price was right but I didnn't have the money. I was also looking at the Dsi the one with the 2 camera's on it. They had it for $179 plus it caomes with games as well. Perfect for my commute. After that I headed over to Cole's with my laptop with me all the way. I hadn't been in Cole's for almost 2 years. I shopped around and looked at their version of the Kindle 2 the Kobo. I'm still leaning towards the kindle 2. Shopping around for books I came across Jack Whyte's books. I've never read Whyte before but his books are in the SFF area. I bought the first book of "The Eagle" duo-logy "Clothar The Frank." Book two is there as well but its part of a larger series.
Since I didn't need to go out with Warren and the guys Saturday night I had a night off and enjoyed playing around with FL9. Anyway, that's all for now.
