That time of year again.

I have been slacking on posting as of late. Been working and sitting.

I have pretty much taken all the good stuff from my desk at the office and brought it home. I’m avoiding the office as much as humanly possible now. Our new boss may be buying everyone on the team a new 24in LCD monitor in the near future, so I’m going to need to do something with my desk to make it all fit. Its going to be super-geeky in my office once I get everything in place.

Kelly and I have been getting caught up on Heroes I think we have one more episode left, s02ep11. Which I have been told has a huge cliffhanger, so I’m pretty excited to finish it. I fell asleep last night right after we kicked it off. I’m turning into an old man, falling asleep at a quarter after 9. Only two weeks from the Lost season premiere, I’m very excited for that. Maybe we can watch some of last season before it airs.

I go on call tomorrow, which is shitty cause we are also starting our compressed working schedule on Monday… which just so happens to be my scheduled day off, as well as Martin Luther King day…huzzah. So I’m working on my day off, which also happens to be a holiday and will be the only one working ALL day. So basically my pager will be going off ALL day. Ugh. Although I have managed to get Friday off so I can spend it with my mom and grandma as they are flying in to visit. Not really certain what we are going to do for the weekend, but we will think of something.

We sold off our HD-DVD drive for the Xbox and nearly all of our HD-DVDs that we had. The format war is coming to a close and I wanted to cut our losses while we could. Its a shame though cause Transformers looked amazing in 1080p. But our regular Xbox makes an excellent upconverting DVD player, so we will stick with that for a bit. On the other hand I received a $500 dollar award from work so I’m actually considering buying a PS3, that way if somehow HD-DVD makes a huge comeback I can still play games on it. Also the PS3 is only one of a few Blu-Ray players on the market right now that will meet the Profile 2.0 spec. Although I don’t usually watch most of the bonus material that comes with a DVD, so spec changes wouldn’t bother me that much. Also Universal recently released Stargate SG1 on Blu-Ray which kind of ends their HD-DVD exclusive deal. Although they deny ditching the format.

Our Verizon contract is gradually drawing to a close, and it couldn’t be more timely that AT&T has finally decided to sell the iPhone to business customers. This means I can use my HP discount and get us a pair of iPhones with service for cheap, although there may not be hardware discounts. Now if only they release the 3G iPhone before May.
