it’s not yet my birthday, and already i’ve opened presents
aha. chumptastic’s back!
how bizarre. i’m not sure what exactly happened, but my theory is that the network problems i was complaining about a while ago finally arrived at their logical conclusion. it was pretty weird: i was able to access the site from within my apartment but it wasn’t accessible to the outside world. i swapped out my network card tonight though and everything seems to be working now (after great amounts of effort and large quantities of weirdness).
in truth, did i do much worth writing about this weekend? not really. i watched the royal tenenbaums with mitch last night, and i dont think i’ll ever tire of it. i also watched a bunch of the director’s commentary, which was pretty cool as well.
today, my sister came to visit me and dropped off a few fabulous bday presents. she gave me two cds (ben kweller and black rebel motorcycle club) as well as a t-shirt that i’ll take a picture of rather than giving away the surprise. needless to say, it’s very cool. she and her boyfriend also took me to dinner tonight, and brought me a cake. not bad.
i also opened sarah’s present on thursday night (’cause i was talking to her on the phone) and she gave me the bottom one on this page. talk about cool. i’ll also take a picture of that shortly.
wheeeee. i rule.
