I'M A TECHIE!

OK, maybe not quite a total techie, but I installed more memory in my desk top all by myself this weekend. Ooooh ahhh. Now I have wireless everything, an external hard drive for back up, I have upgraded the hard drive on my laptop so its faster and quiter, and my desktop zooms with the extra gig. woohoo!

So I hope everyone had a good weekend. Aside from the stabbing sinus pain in my head (damn allergies!), it was a pretty good one for me. Very relaxing. Friday night we went to Havana in Costa Mesa for Bill's birthday dinner. When we got there, I was starving and it turned out to be at least an hour wait. Some calamari and three sangrias later, we're sitting and ready to order, but by then I can't read the menu too well because I'm a little tipsy. =P Anyhow, I had the marinated chicken because I wanted to compare it to Versailles, and it wasn't bad. Versailles is probably a better deal, but it doesn't have the fun atmosphere of Havana. Afterwards, Brian and Shivaji bailed out, but it wasn't even 11! So I dragged Bill out again, as it was his birthday. We first tried some place called Rudy's, which had absolutely no line when we drove up... but by the time we walked up, there was a huge group of people who had literally walked up right before us, thereby forming a long line. =( So we ditched that place and went for the old standby... Detroit. No line and the music was ok, so we hung out there til about 1.

On Saturday I played tennis in the morning, then came home and took a nap, watched Casino Royale, then went out to dinner with Jenn and Marissa at Petros in Manhattan Beach. I have to say, my new favorite waitress works there. Why is she my favorite? Because when I ordered my drink, she stopped and asked me if I was 21. Jenn and I of course started to laugh and told her I was 33, when she promptly (and appropriately) exclaimed, "You look really young!" My new best friend. =P After dinner, we went over to Shade for drinks. When we got there at 10, there was a decent crowd. By the time we left at midnight, it was packed. I still didn't see too many hotties and there are usually at least a couple. Oh well.

On Sunday, there was a whole lotta nothin going on. I woke up late (given the time change), watched t.v. then went to Target in the afternoon. Then I decided to get my butt in gear and put my new memory in and do some work.
