Two homework assignments due on Thursday. Test on Friday.

This sucks.

My mom said she would bring back my receiver when she comes back to Austin. You see, this is how the three-way trade went down.

I gave my mom my newer Sony receiver (STR-DE485) and she gave my bro her much older receiver (a Sony with phono input) and I used my vintage Harman/Kardon 430. My Harman/Kardon is messed up now. There's a hissing sound coming through both channels, and as far as I can tell, it's a capacitor. So, I'm stuck without a receiver. I would like to get it repaired, but this is going to cost anywhere from $50 to $100. Possibly more. Some places that repair vintage equipment have a $160 flat-rate price.

I love my music. And I hate it when I'm forced to listen to any song through crappy speakers. I do have some decent headphones, but it's not the same. So either way, I'm going to get my old receiver back. I told my mom that I would make it up to her by buying a new receiver for her in August.

The Spurs lost. And badly. But the refs took them out of the game from the very beginning. Yea, they had the half-time lead. But it should have been by 12 points, not 1 point. So, the Spurs aren't going to sweep. Well, I'm picking them to win in 5 games.

Brandon helped me out by finding a name for my podcast. It will now be known as "Bombastic." I think it works. If you don't know what it means, check out dictionary.com. I'll get a new one posted by Sunday. It looks like Sunday will be the weekly time for uploading.

Well, I'm worn out. This morning was harsh. Got a real bad case of acid reflux. Oh well. I'll live.

So you're going to college in Austin? Are you originally from there? I was born in Austin and spent most of my childhood in Georgetown.

We were born the same year... we might have some things in common.

Anyway, just sayin Hi since u posted in my dream journal. I'll be saying Hi to you again on AIM whenever you're online.
