Hmm, the mood icons don't totally follow what I'm feeling at the moment as I'm both sleepy and a little bit sick... well to the point I'm starting to lose my voice. Not a good thing for the coming weekend.

Anyway, this Friday I turn another year older which means I'll need to update my ID yet again.

My parents are already up to visit me and came bearing gifts... really cool ones at that. I no longer have the excuse I can't scan something until such and such a date because I now have a Printer/Scanner/Copier which works pretty well so far... it's going to take me a bit of time to get used to the thing but I think I'll manage.

Those wonder it's a Lexmark X1240.

However I knew I was getting this as my mom mentioned it to me the other day on the phone when I pressured her to tell me when she said my roommate might not like it.

I then got something that came in a one package but had a number of different things. I've finally got my own camera and not one on lone from my dad. I mentioned a few months ago that I wanted my own camera, one that would take pictures and was also capable of taking videos with sound as my current camera did not have a mic on it to add sound to any videos that I had.

My wish was granted in this package as I recieved a Coolpix S4 by Nikon. They gave me a 1GB memory card for the thing so I don't think I'll have to change my memory card at all when I bring this baby out. The 1 GB would allow the camera to record a video of 55 minutes long at least... now that's cool!

My mom luckily also picked me up a four USB port thing that would plug into one of the four I already had increasing my capablity to run all my electronics that I need to on my computer

I also got some candy from them, Kissables. Only the little bags you'd get through the checkout line but still... MINE!

I can't wait until this weekend as Men's hockey season starts and there's a women's game on Saturday which means if I don't try it out before then I'll be using my new camera at that women's game at the very least... Too bad I didn't have it last weekend during their series home opener, I probably really would have gotten the fight on video instead of only one picture of it. That second game was so funny, we lost but with all the penalties it was what made it fun at least 62 minutes worth of penalties handed out in a 60 minute game. About 16 of those where handed out in the last 33 seconds of the game X3

But yeah, it's my 25th birthday this Friday... and now that I think about it, I need to hope my ex-boss doesn't get the Men's game announcer to announce it during the game.... I so wouldn't put it past her.
