Have a safe fly

// May 31st, 2009 // 2 Comments » // Uncategorized

I always say those words to Hinote right before we leave each other at the airport. So now it’s a tradition, hoping to bring her luck and a safe fly.

I changed the header of the site again. Hinote’s mage have her wolf head now (level 60 PVP Epic set) and as you can see, the shaman gear continue to get ridiculously overpowered.

The week of may 10 was the last week before Hinote was leaving for summer class in the US. She didnt have any hw, so we try to spend as much time possible together, watching stuff, eating good food, etc. The subway broke the Tuesday, I had to walk  7 km. We ate after a shower, you know i was tired when I almost falled asleep with food served in front of me. I had to shopped for gifts card for parents and birthday card/mother’s day card also.Got some beer the friday night, funny i found La Maudite from Québec, so I had to get a 6 pack.

The saturday was the last day for her in T. I gave her the choice to choose what she wanted to eat so off course she choosed Chipotle. We had to go to the mall to get last minutes gifts for siblings. It was so warrm there and so much people. She also got an ipod case. We got 2 cake slices on the way home, eating half of each of them together and relaxing more. I got in bed at 2am, but Hinote packed all night long.

I woke up, shower and it was time to leave. Hinote was tired, and she felt like she would be sick in the taxi, the driver was always switching lanes, driving fast. We got at the airport, no one there, a 3 day weekend, but it was the Sunday. We sat with bottle of water and stuff for breakfast. Normaly the sadness always very strong, but feeling sick, not slipping and so much to do, we were more focus on that. I waited that her plane took off for leaving, so we spoke on the phone and watched an episode of the last season of Galactica.

I got some Asian noodle (coconut curry sauce, with whole grain rice, pineapple, cashew, chicken) for take out and ice cream to bring home. The appart felt empty, so I put music, and found a 5 hours Naxx 25 to keep me busy. The monday was an Holiday’s so I just walked in the neighborhood, get food, etc

There was a lot of things to do at work in the last 2 weeks, so it kept me busy. Hinote doing 2 summer classes there while visiting her siblings. We were stressed that we couldnt have our vacation together, but she’s able to do the last class s independant, so we will have a full moth together. One week in the US, 2 in my hometown and one in T together. So it will be a great summer ^_^

The Holidays

// January 1st, 2009 // 2 Comments » // Uncategorized

Happy new year everyone! Like I said to Hinote on the phone last night, we started the year at Cachet and finished it living together, so it been quite a good year for us. And 2009 will be even better *_*…We have been appart for almost 3 weeks now, so it will be great to have a chance to see each other. Someone ask me how it was to be away again. I said its a good sign, we are missing each other already.

The week she left to see her family I still had work, so I used the evenings to shop for gifts, and also doing last minutes preparations for the trip. When I was home, I tried to eat well, mostly salad, like spinach, nuts and strawberry salad. while playing music. Of course I had so much free time alone, and wanted to be on the computer to chat, so I Wow a lot. Raced to 77 to 80 (the max) and made 6000 gold in a week to get my epic flying mount.

We got a crazy storm the friday, I got to work anyway, because the snow had just started, but most people were not there. Even the subway was slow. The travel day was easy, woke around 8am, finished packing and a taxi to the airport. We had to wait 30 minutes in the plane leaving Montreal because no one was there to put the luggages in the plane. I just relaxed home, mom made cheese crepe and maple syrup, and she also made like 12 tiny Christmas desserts.

For Christmas eve, my uncle and aunt came visit and we ate a chinese fondue. I was glad I could see my uncle, was worried about him, with the cancer since this summer. It was a calm everning, mostly catching up with what was going on in that small kingdom. Got a fondue pot, plates, and also Thierry Mugler Angel for Men kit. I didnt ask for tech gifts because I had everything I could think of. I c waalled Hinote for saying Joyeux Noel. It’s was good to hear her voice and things seem to go well for her there with her siblings

The 25th my grandfather visited for dinner, 79 and still in good shape for that age.

The 26 I felt lazy, so I rented Hancock, Wanted, and Getr Smart and watched them with my parents. Average movies, but good to relax. The 27 I shopped for another gift for Hinote (sorry cannot tell because she I will give it to her tomorrow), got an Hab’s shirt for me, Fallout 3 on pc for Math, and MGS4 for Francois. Math visited later that night. We watched the game, and decide to play Super Mario World on the SNES. I sucked so much at it now its not even funny. Im old!

We were having crazy wind and freezing rain and at one point its started leaking in the house from my room upstair to the living room. At one point there was 6 bowls in the living room. I felt bad for my parents, for that last 3 years they have contractor coming to fix the problems of the room, taking wall appart,etc and it seem it’s still not fixed. We stayed up until 7am to clear the mess. Weather got cold again, so it frozen again and it stopped.

During the day during the holidays, I was broswing the web on my laptop, chatting a little with Hinote and friends, and Wowing a little. Nothing big, mostly doing some dailies, getting leather and making armors etc.

I ate a pepperoni bacon pizza with Math that evening. The place around her put like half a inch of cheese all over and it make like a crust over it. We watched the game, more mario and left for pool after. We played for maybe 1.5 hour there, it was full. We felt old there, it was full of 18 years old that were calling mister when we had to move them to play, and asked us questions to how to play. We tried after to find something to eat, but everything was close early.

The 30th, my cousin visited with the 2 kids. We ate noodle and rice my mom made, and she talked to her, while I played with the kids. She left with a small cooler of my mom food she will bring back in T for me. So Hinote will be able to eat a fondue, that she likes so much ^_^. Francois called later that night, so we stopped at a restaurant to eat dessert together, and after that we got to his appart, to play 30 games of Soul Calibur 4, on his 42 inches TV. Even if i dont have the space now, I want i bigger Aquos *_*..

Yesterday was the family party on my dad side. 5 years I didn’t seem them because I normaly leave before new year eve, to see Hinote and also because we started around the 3rd at the board. A lot of my  younger cousins are teens now. and some in their 25-30 have kids now. It was nice to have a chance to see everyone, and meet the youngest babies.  I mostly ate dinner and talked to the older cousins and aunts, uncles. I dont know well the younger generation, its the case with big family. We got home around midnight, say happy new year and I called my baby again. After that I read a little.During the trip I read one WoW book about Thrall and I just finished another Bourne one.

Today is the family dinner on my mom side, big family, 11 brothers and sisters. So this year I will be able to see everyone. After the dinner I will pack, and my fly is so early in the morning, I will probably need to leave around 4am. Will meet Hinote in Toronto so we can take a taxi together . We will go home, give gifts,catching up. We will also need food, cause there’s maybe only pasta left in the appart. Im sad to leave family and friends, but happy to hug her again.

Well, its good to know we don’t sucks at building computer. We decided tonight to try her hardware in my case to see what happened. It’s working perfectly now, so at least we got a computer back. So I guess it UPS fault, while in transit, the power button cord got cut. We will try order a new door for her computer. It aslo mean that when we build her computer the first night we did it right.I had to put manually the cpu frequency and multipliers, and the sound card needed new driver to work. I also bought at 25 feet component cable, so I plug the tv back on the computer to watch stuff. Still waiting for Asus reply on the Striker. Tho maybe it’s a PSU problem.

Déménagement

Alestorm - Captain Morgan’s Revenge

The blog seem to get corrupted while I moved. I exported the sql, remade it and export back, nothing lost but still doesn’t know what happened. I feel like a DBA now.

We are at the apartment now. yesterday was a very long day. Woke up around 8:30am, left for last minute errands like extra boxes, bubble wrap, et Got back home, and continue to pack until 3PM without eating. The plan was to take the bus and get to TO, Hinote would go shop at Eaton center while waiting to pick the key around 6PM, while me and Dave would go back to pick the truck and start packing. So we got outside and the key got stuck in the door knob impossible to lock it. So Hinote got stuck home surrounded by boxes for 3 hours. Got a call from landlord saying they wouldn’t be out before 8PM.

We got to Uhaul (yeah I know everyone have horror story about them, but with other place I was stuck renting the truck for 4 days because of long weekend). It was in a convenience store. I reserved a cube (10 feet truck) but when we got there they only had a cargo van and a..26 feet truck. The 26th was way to big and log such in bad condition so we decided to put take the cargo van, not sure if the mattress would fit.

We got to the apartment and told Hinote the bad news that we would probably have to do 2 trips, I had so much stuff I bought to move them at the same time. We worked 2 hours to pack the van, and with Dave incredible packing skills we were able to put almost all in the van, and the rest in his car. Hinote took a taxi and the bus to go at the apartment while we drove to TO with the van. We got there around 10PM, but circle around for 20 minutes because of all the one ways. We started unpacking and Hinote arrived a little later. It took one hour to get everything in the apartement, and we decide to go eat dinner, being downtown make it easy. We found a nice bar, and got food and a drink there, stopped for grocery and cleaning products. Me and Dave left to bring the truck back while she started unpacked and clean. We got in Newmarket around 1am left the truck and drove back to the apartment. At 2am we got the last boxes out. When Dave left, I started put the bed together, connected her laptop and cable modem. Even if I didnt call rogers, Internet is working. We got in bed around 4am.

I woke up around 8am today, started to put her new chair, her desk and mine together and when Hinote woke up we split tasks.

One big problem, when we opened the box, her processor and heatsink were on the floor, pins torn. Good thing she brought her drives with her. I guess I will accelerate the process of upgrading mine. I would put a Q9450 but its seem to have problem with the striker. So maybe a Q6600 (bus at 1066 but quad core processor around 2.4) or a E8500 (bus at 1333 and 3.16 GZH but dual core) Both are at 200$

After some grocery, I put my computer back together and we got her laptop running. We did more cleaning and now its relaxing for the night.
