Over the past couple of weeks Vegas sure has gotten hot.  I had forgotten how hot it gets during the summers here.  Ohh well once I get a job I think it will be time to fix the AC unit in my car since it doesn’t seem to work anymore.
Ryan was here over the last week and I wish my luck was as god as his.  Seems that he had a lucky streak as he was up around $1000 during the time he was here. Even though I haven’t won like that in a long time, he still treated us to nice steak dinner at Claim Jumpers.
I have started to plan out my new fileserver setup.  Mainly I have a dual 1ghz machine with 4gig of ram that I am going t put in pace as the fie server, and then take the d fileserver and make it a MythTv frontend for my bedroom…  Lets see how well this ends up working out.
 

I have really been slacking on site updates, mainly because I have been avoiding my computer in all ways possible besides my daily visits to Craigslist.  Even with that I have yet to land a job, but it has still been a blast in Vegas non the less.  
My days have been occupied with applying for jobs, interviews and countless rounds of disc golf.  I have been working on some site designs for a few clients to bid the time as well.  
As for this site I am have had a few design ideas in mind, yet I have not really wanted to take the time to work on it and push through the ideas I have in mind.
This weekend a friend from Michigan is coming to Vegas and then taking a drive to California, I might hitch a ride so I can work on my tan at the beach…  If I do I hope to add some photos since I have been slacking on that.
Anyways there is an update to occupy your time for a few until I get around to a full update.  Good day. 

I have been meaning to write something up about the last couple of weeks in my new home.  The move went well, seemed like it was never going to happen but then finally the day came.  Had a nice going away party over at Chads, had a few drinks, and then a few more.  I will hopefully post the pictures on my flickr when I decide to stop being lazy.  The morning after the party we packed up and did the final run through of the place.  Then we hit the road, a few hours later than I had planned but whatever.  After getting into Vegas we unloaded the truck and then I unloaded the rest of my car.  I have now realized that I have a few too many clothes…  I should downgrade. 
Other than the move I have just been hanging out, enjoying this like a mini vacation.  I am liking Vegas more and more everyday, I mean there is a Jimmy Johns and a BW3’s nearby what more can you ask for? I have also discovered a love for Disc Golfing, kind of wish I had picked up on it sooner… but better now then never I guess.  I would be lying if I said I didn’t miss the ocean, but its only a few hours away.  I am still looking for a dive bar near by, one that is less about the video poker and more about the cheap drinks and good atmosphere.
The only downfall I have found thus far with this place is the fact that you can drink 24/7 … That could end up being a bad thing.  On the job front, well thats another story.  I had an interview the 2nd week I was here, but still have not gotten the job.  Its somewhat depressing when I start to look at bills and rent and know that I dont have the funds… But ohh well I figure everything else fell into place with moving here so maybe a job will land on my lap soon enough. 

Update and pictures coming soon.

I am getting ready to head to Vegas in a few hours for Louie’s Bachelor party.  Should be a fun filled weekend, and I am sure I will have pictures shortly there after.

I was starting to think that my site was getting little to no attention.  I hoped that if I were to update it to the new version of Wordpress it would spur my interest again … but yet all it has done is create 3-4 new posts all talking about an upgrade.  Not exactly what I call good times in the world of blogging.
After hearing Chase talk about his new fairly new Xbox setup with XBoxMediaCenter installed I was wanting to get an XBox and do the same.  And I think the stars might be aligned just right or something as Brian and I were talking the other day and he actually just picked up an XBox and is looking to sell it, even has the DVD remote which is a plus.  So after talking with him I was going to go to Vegas and get it this weekend, but I had forgotten this was the same weekend Alexis was coming to visit me for her spring break.  I have made other plans on getting the XBox though so I should have it Monday afternoon if all goes as planned.  From there I am planning on installing a new hard drive in it (120 gig) and installing XBoxMediaCenter, this will replace my MythTV Box that I recently created.  I have no plans on getting rid of the MythTV box but instead I am going to turn that into a Fileserver/Backend/Desktop and just stream all recordings to the XBox.  I am creating a new category on the site here for the XBox and will be posting updates to how the install goes and everything that I do to it.
