I haven&#8217;t posted in almost 3 days. We haven&#8217;t really been doing much. I barbequed some chicken on Saturday, and we watched <a href=\"http:\/\/us.imdb.com\/Title?0269095\">City By The Sea<\/a> (bleh, super slow). Then today the whole family went to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ontheborder.com\/index_flash.html\">On The Border<\/a> for lunch for grandma&#8217;s birthday, once again bleh, with 9 people ordering food, it all came out cold and we had really shitty service to boot.<\/p>\n<p>But then Kelly and I went over to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.compusa.com\">CompUSA<\/a> and picked up a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apple.com\/ipod\/\">10GB iPod for Windows<\/a>.  They were out of the Mac version so when we got home I looked into converting it over. I hooked it to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apple.com\/powerbook\/index12.html\">Powerbook<\/a> and OS X mounted it as it would any attached storage device, not as an <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apple.com\/ipod\/\">iPod<\/a>.  But it did sync with iTunes. I contemplated leaving it formatted as FAT32 so I could use it on my laptop and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apple.com\/powerbook\/index12.html\">Powerbook<\/a>, but I read that by formatting it as HFS+ I would get a huge speed improvement.  So I downloaded the iPod Updater from Apple.com and ran it. It formatted it to HFS+ then it synced with iTunes and WOW it was a huge speed improvement. Plus I copied over Kelly&#8217;s Address Book, and her iCal Calender both of which the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apple.com\/ipod\/\">iPod<\/a> supports well, although I wish it did it automagically instead of having to copy it all over by hand. Maybe there is an app that does it and I just don&#8217;t know it.<\/p>\n<p>We also purchased some new shoes this weekend so next week we are going to start going to the gym, perhaps not tomorrow because I&#8217;m waiting on a call from my boss to have my yearly review, but sometime this week. I&#8217;m just going to sit my fat ass on a bike or a treadmill until I pass out.<\/p>\n<p>I wonder if anyone would be willing to buy my laptop so I can score a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apple.com\/powerbook\/index15.html\">15 inch Powerbook<\/a>. Hmmmmmmm.<\/p>\n<p>We are watching <a href=\"http:\/\/us.imdb.com\/Title?0258463\">Bourne Identity<\/a> right now, its a bitchin movie based on a bitchin book. I still have to read the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/tg\/detail\/-\/0553263226\/qid=1047273520\/sr=8-1\/ref=sr_8_1\/104-1193302-6963111?v=glance&amp;s=books&amp;n=507846\">Bourne Supremacy<\/a> which is the second book in the Bourne Trilogy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Man I have been lazy.
