It just keeps falling

The snow is still falling. STILL. Look in my pictures to see pictures throughout the day today and tonight. I am kinda hoping for a snow day tomorrow but I doubt I will be that lucky.

I can still wish though.

Halo

Ok so people that know me know my favorite video game is....*everyone yells together* ...HALO!!!! Yay I love Halo. I love the music, I love the game, I love the XBL play that is available. It is the best game ever. And although I do love this game....I do NOT love it this much.

Please watch. Granted good for them but even I am not THAT fanatical.

Cool Interview

I saw a really cool video interview that I thought I would share. It is a round table discussion with several big names from movies that talk about everything from movies, to their rough pasts, to how Obama's presidency is going to affect the movie industry.

It was interesting to see them just speaking candidly with each other and answering questions like "Do you google yourself?" and then to hear their answers. It was also cool to see more of who they are and not their movie personas and who they appear to be in movies or on the red carpet.

It was a very cool set of videos and if you have the time, definately worth watching.

Servers Down

So today we were having computer problems....again. I could get email open and shoot out a couple of emails but it was taking an uber long time. Then everything went down. We had no internet and no email all day. And then in the afternoon they wnated us to shut down our computers all together so I couldn't even do word processing. :-( I don't think I realized how dependent I am on my computer until I didn't have it.

What made me a bit upset was the fact that the guy that is supposed to be over our network didn't even show up in the building. Granted I know that not everything has to be done in person but the server for our building is in our building. And we got a call and then an announcement saying that he wanted all computers completely and totally shut down.

We did have a person come in and work on it and then he left and another person came in to work on it and when I left it still wasn't fixed. Now I don't know much about servers and such but one would think it would be WITH the computer guy, not in each individual building but again....I honestly don't know much. Then the first guy that came in was there for at least 2 hours and they had to call in another person. I kinda got that they thought it was through a company but am not really sure.

Oh well. Hopefully it will be back up tomorrow.

Update

So am update on my car....I still have the rental. -sighs- I called Thursday and they said that it would be done that night. I told them I would then be in the following day (Friday) to get my car. Then on Friday I left work early because it said they closed at 5 and it was a 2 and a half hour drive to Portsmouth. I got there and I didn't see my car which made my stomach drop. I then went inside and they said it still wasn't ready and asked if I had received a phone call. I told them I hadn't but I told them about the phone call the day before. They said it wasn't ready but they would try for Saturday. Called them today and it still wasn't done and then I called back and asked if it would be easier to pick it up next Saturday. He said with obvious relief "Yes". So I have the charger for another week. I don't mind it and I know that it isn't the shops fault but 2 weeks for work? And then to tell me it should be done? I want my car back!!! :-(

Will keep ya updated!
