Chrono Trigger DS is coming this Holdiay in North America!

July 2nd, 2008 at 10:35 pm (Uncategorized)

Me am happier than ever… besides the birth of the children, getting married, blah blah blah… the game I love most of all is coming to life again, this time on Nintendo DS. Looks like I’ll be getting me a DS for Christmas. Guess I won’t be jealous of my brother-in-law anymore, who just got one for his birthday. Once this game comes out I will have one, no question about it.

Chrono Trigger must be mine!

PS: Saw Wall-E tonight… such a great movie. Choked me up more than once.

From Digg:
There is a god! And he lives on as a Square-Enix exec!

And Then There Were 3

July 1st, 2008 at 9:36 pm (life)

I kept my eyes open this evening for the fox. After I heard the neighbors dog barking, I knew it was time. Then what do I see… 2 foxes. So Bridget comes over to take a look.. and spots a third. Now there are 3… at least. Yeah, I’m going to call Animal Control a lot tomorrow. Time for a fox relocation and I’m not going to take the lack of call backs this time.

Schlotzsky’s Salad

July 1st, 2008 at 1:06 pm (life)

Went to Schlotzsky’s and since they were out of the salad I wanted, they gave me a free one.

Nothing better than free food.

I hadn’t even thought about getting a salad from them until today, and I must say they make good salads.

Took a bit getting through the drive through, but it was well worth it.

Yum!

Fox in Residence

I was on our enclosed porch the other day feeding the cats, when I saw something moving in the backyard. At first I thought it was a cat, as that’s not out of the ordinary. Only took a moment to realize that was a wrong assessment.

A gray fox padded its way right onto the patio. He (or she) sat there for a bit scratching itself and otherwise acting like he owned the place. Didn’t see me or the cats due to the solar screen (wonderful invention).

I snapped a couple videos since the normal pictures didn’t work through the solar screens (so there is a small drawback to them). We saw the fox wandering down the neighborhood street last night, and he was sitting out there this morning as well.

Bridget called animal control the other day, but they just told her to leave the fox alone since it’s a wild animal and it would probably go on its own. I’ll be giving them a call tomorrow and letting them know that the critter seems to have made a home. That and taking a stroll down the middle of the street can’t be normal behavior.

I’m personally not bother too much, because I’m sure it’s eating up the vermin. Which is one less thing I have to worry about. I just don’t want the kids down the block at rabies risk… or having a fox get in our garage.

Here Comes Randal

Here Comes Randal

Originally uploaded by FlipSide3.

I thought I’d actually post something about my newly born son on my blog. I’m afraid all the posts about him have so far only gone onto the family blog and nothing has made its way to my blog. He was born a week ago at 2:29 p.m., weighed 8 pounds 8 ounces, and was 20.5 inches long.

He’s been a gem of a baby so far. Sleeps all the time and isn’t even bothered by the invariably loud racket his sister makes running through the house. Speaking of his big sister, Katie the 2 year old, is taking things rather well. She’s a bit clingy and needy, but not terribly so. We’re doing our best to make her feel very important and loved.

Randal has been getting gifts like crazy. Here are two of my favorite so far. A blue monster named Big Toe and a bib stating “Here Comes Randal.” The latter being a reference to one of my favorite films, Clerks.
