    Christmas Present part 2

    I got my mother a laptop for Christmas, and the USB port is just toying with me. It gives error 29, which basically means that its BIOS isn't using an IRQ, which it needs. If I change its drivers, that error goes away, but a new one pops up when it finds new hardware (USB Root Hub) that is...

    I got full time hours now!

    It's a huge promotion for me at this time, I'd no longer be just a part time cashier at the Walgreens in Franklin Park (about a mile away), I've been offered to be the SIMC Coordinator at the Walgreens a block away from my house! It'd be a 40 hour a week job with a significant raise, and it's...

    My grandmother moved today

    Yeesh, we FINALLY finished! We've got all sorts of crap loaded in boxes because she's a pack rat and didn't want to throw anything out, even old greeting cards (You never know when Valetine's Day 1974 comes around again!). By moving, she found much more than she threw away. She found $100 in...

    I'm all alone

    I must be the one with the stinky feet here ;) since when I'm here, no one else is. Can someone get me some Odor Eaters or something? How about a new pair of socks? :D

    My school paper

    A Hank Hill quote is perfect for this: "I don't know whether to laugh or vomit." :lol: :vomit: This article is quoted completely verbatim to the letter from the final edition of the February 2000 West Leyden High School paper. I'm glad I went to East. :D (OK, so it wasn't exactly my school...

    Everyone's sick!

    I've been sick twice this week now, and last night was awful. I threw up 4 times. :sick: Everyone's been sick everywhere I look, we had 5 people call in sick at Walgreens Sunday night, so I went to work and none of us who closed were even scheduled that night. I don't have to work again until...

    XiBase's 3 stooges

    My grandmother is seriously losing her mind

    I don't know what we're going to do with her. She recently went to a doctor for a memory test and did poorly on it, he gave her simple memory tests and about the only ones she was good at were math related. She couldn't even tell him what his name was. She's now on medication to improve her...

    Lousy weather

    That's what I was saying last year, but this year's a complete 180! I love it, except for the rain. :rolleyes: That's how the weather is here in the Chicago area. One winter was very warm, and on Christmas day there were thunderstorms that knocked out everyone's power. The very next year had...

    Homemade Italian Beef

    This is what I promised! This does take a long time to actually make, but the majority of that time you don't really have to do anything, it's just made in the crockpot the whole time. You could start it in the morning before you go to work/school/whatever, and come back 8-10 hours later and...

    The trading deadline isn't far away...

    The trading deadline is coming up fast, and a few deals have already been made. The White Sox unloaded mediocre starting pitcher James Baldwin for 3 minor leaguers to the Dodgers who desperately need starting pitching after losing Kevin Brown. Earlier there was a 3 way trade which saw the...
