New TV and saying bye to an old one

Well, it had to happen sooner than later.... I came into a bit of coin and got a new LCD HDTV last week... Ohhh yes, and a PS3 with Guitar Hero III (thanks TDawg/JDawg for getting Amy and myself addicted)... I actually got a sweet deal and felt it was a great time to upgrade with decent prices out there...

One sad thing is that I am parting with my old TV, it was one of my 1st major purchases when I was out on my own in Seattle 8 years ago... Man, I cannot believe it was that long ago... Some great and sad times where had then and it sorta feels like that I am parting with the last piece of those times... I am including a couple pics of the TV here for posterity...


Keep it real peeps, live life to the fullest!!!!

Shopping Tip for Guys

Well, I think I should post about my shopping trip yesterday to prove a simple point: What guys think looks good, does not always look good to the ladies out there.

Case in point, I was in need of some clothes and accessories for the upcoming summer. So I took some time off yesterday to get out and get what I needed, I did some during the day, other stops after work. In total I spent a couple hundred and got the following: new sunglasses, running shoes, 2 Adidas shirts, plus some other misc hygiene items. Not a bad day!

Well all proud of myself I came home and had Amy check them out: well that turned out not as I expected... Sunglasses (tad too small for my face), One shirt (looked a little tight), shoes (got a bad review), other shirt she is OK with.

Sadly I went to bed kinda down on my "style" choices, but thank goodness I can return everything I need to. Sunglasses, one shirt, shoes are all going back and I am going to take Amy out with me to pick out the needed replacements (except the Sunglasses I am getting on EBay).

So guys, bring your significant other or best girl buddy (bribe if needed) out with you when you splurge on some items for yourself. It will save you time going back again to return and re-try on things. You want to look good when you are with your girl, or on the hunt for one.

That is all today.

I'm back... Update!!!

Hi there everyone who is up on my blog, like I think 2 people... Anyway I am back into Blogging so look for some more posts in the coming days.

Update from today: Had an excellent day today outside with Amy, we had to show our apartment to the owner today but after that was done we took off! I have lived in Vancouver area for many years and today was my 1st trip to White Rock!!! Awesome beach and lovely homes (huge mansions/estates more like it) on the way there made the afternoon with my baby fly by.

I took a few cell phone pics but unfortunately I am not able to download them yet! More posts soon! Also saw Hancock today, 3/5, no spoilers here but had some really good parts, I would say a good renter, not a $30 show at the theatre...

Till then... *SP*

Some time @ the Quay

A friend of Amy's called up this past Sunday to see if we wanted to drop into the Quay in New West (we are very close, like 3 blocks away) to go for a walk. Here are a few pics from the afternoon.

Here is a sweet shot of Amy:
Below are also some pictures from our afternoon outing:

Moving sucks!!!!

Welcome to the mayhem of moving!!!

Since my last post I have been packing, setting up viewings, arranging utilities (NW has it's own Power Company, not BC Hydro, who knew??) and de-junking. I am making a vow never to move in the month of December again! What a pain in the butt! Either way I am really finding out that I have too much clutter and useless stuff, Sally Ann and Big Bro's are gonna get some extra stuff this year!

More as the packing/de-cluttering happens.

Minor update: Amy and I have secured a new condo (renting) in New West last week. We will be moving around the end of the month.

I will post more pictures and a post after we move in.
