Still here.
It's quarter-to-11pm here in Michigan, and I'm home alone until Sunday night. My better half is visiting her parents in Indiana, so I've got the place to myself. I'm lounging around, watching Scarface and surfing the net, and also looking for strange or funny things in Google Earth. :D

I've got a couple cans of Pepsi, a glass full of ice, and Cheez-It Crisps (Four Cheese... mmmm) so I'm set for a few hours.

What is everyone else up to? :)
 
I'm hoping to join a strip contest tonight, but I was part of it last week and I don't know if you can join multiple times.

In any case, I'm going dancing tonight, and I plan on having fun doing it!

Well my mom stole my PowerBook and iBook because I woke up 10 min before I had to leave for an appointment. I got ready in 7min (shower, cloths, brushed teeth, etc) and was out the door before she was. She refuses to give them back to me. I called her some nasty names so she walks over to my desk and takes my BT mouse, my iPod Case (but not my iPod), and my HiFi remote control (LOL). I am now searching the house for my computers. I have looked in my parents bedroom, the kitchen, the family room, the dining room, the living room, closets, all the bathrooms, the garage, parts of the basement, in chests, in drawers, in cabnets, in all the cars, and I cannot find them anywhere. Maybe she threw them away. So I am really bored now. She fineally went to bed so now I am in the office using my PC (before I was using a Wi-Fi sony clie).

If you were a hidden laptop computer, where would you be?
 
I just finished my work for today* (It's 5:37 AM here). I should go to bed or something, but I don't feel tired enough to do it.

I'll just do waht I always do in this situation - browse the web, browse wikipedia, program something (still learning how to use Xcode properly), chat using AdiumX/IRC...

* yesterday, really.

Did you check the 'roof space' - if you don't have an attic you can still get into the space above your ceiling - this is where my parents used to hide our Christmas presents when I was young and Santa still loved me. Now that I know differently the presents are under the tree - anyway, check the space above the ceiling and below the roof!

Good luck hunting...

There was a guy the other day plotting to get his 'Book back, you two should hook up and share info.
 
I have looked everywhere. I have looked in my parents bedroom (under bed, drawers, closets), I've looked in all the bathrooms, the family room, living room, dining room, kitchen, bonus room, office, other bedrooms garage, storage room, all the cars, and I cannot find it anywhere. I have looked in chests, hutches, even inside of the piano.

I have even thought of reversing reverse pschologic thinking (does that make any sense). I looked in my room to see if she somehow hid them in there.

As for hiding it in the attic- there are no floors in there and the only way to get into there is in my closet though a hatchway that requires a ladder.
 
At the moment? I'm banging my head on my table. Over. And Over. And Over Again.

Why? Boredom. And Fear of CO School of Mines.

I'll be doing this for the next 30 days...
 
Sipping on some apple cider. Waiting for close-to-midnight so I can catch a midnight showing of The Royal Tenenbaums at a local theater. :D (Don't worry, I won't be driving.)
 
Just got back from a nice Friday lunch with me Ma and sister.

Probably off to the pub soon.

That's about it really.
 
I've pretty much done nothing productive all day. Read, MRed (it's a separate verb now), watched DVDs and ate.

Work called a while ago so I'm doing some crappy late shift (6-11) tonight. :(
 
Well, I was trying to get my Duo to talk to my G3, but both need a system reinstall, so I've given up. Uh... so now I'm watching HGTV and trying to get good ideas for setting up my new apartment in the fall. I'm so fun.
 
I was out with friends for dinner and stuff™.

Then I went on a late night photo safari.

Now I'm doing post on my pictures/sitting around.

I just got back from the pub - nothing really going on, so no need for you to bother going. Besides, I already got the cute waitresses phone number. Time for bed now.
 
Right now it's 11PM and I'm posting on 4 different forums, encoding video, talking on aMSN, listening to my iPod, checking my mail and playing super smash brothers melee in the meantime. Earlier I tried to put mac os x on my pc and failed misserably for the 4th day straight :eek:. And I was thinking of what I could sell besides my computers to get a brand new MBP merom once they come out.
