Election Day

It was a great morning this morning. Got up at 5:30ish and left the house around 6:30 to go vote. I got to the polling place at around 6:40 and was out and done by 7:30am. This is rather good considering the polls open at 7:00am and it takes you a few minutes to read the ballot and vote. I am excited to see the rest of today’s events pan out. I really do love America!

Finished Moving

Just as a public service announcement I have finally completed moving from the apartment to my new house. My dad is insistent on me posting pictures of it to my website, so I will be working on that this weekend after the new furniture shows up (I don’t want to post pictures of my empty living room). Now the task is just unpacking everything and putting it away. So the next few days and nights will be dedicated to finally really settling in.

Besides that a few things have changed, I now have the 15Meg service from RoadRunner and I have a DVR. I like the DVR purely to pause live TV like football. I’m sure I will get more into it later.

Thanks Dad…

From my dad via email:

new post… i own it…daniel rocks…come see my new home….LOL

I guess that was a hint to tell everyone that I own a house.

New House

So right now I am patiently waiting to close on my house. On October 20th I should/will be the proud owner of a 3 bedroom 2 ½ bathroom house. I am very excited. So I have to start packing up the apartment and start looking for furniture. Loads of fun to be had.

Check out pictures of it here.

I hope everyone else is having a good start to October.

You only live once, and this is a definitely not a dress rehearsal.

Can’t Get a Break…

What do the following have in common?

  • The start of Marching Knight Band Camp
  • Family renting a house in the keys

Answer: They both could or will be interrupted by Tropical Storm/Hurricane Fay.

It wouldn’t be hurricane season without one at least threatening to come our way. So to everyone in Central Florida…”hunker down?!?”. I think we can expect some weather, but I don’t know if we should expect to see real tropical force winds or what not, I guess by the late night update we should have a better idea. Looking at the computer models 6 out of 8 have the store coming close to Orlando, but mostly showing it as a Tropical Storm. This should be a lot of fun!
