So yesterday I got to take Blaze to work, it was really nice to see her, even though we are kinda fighting. Then I went home, and I cleaned up some more, place is really starting to come together. Then I hung around, then went to talk to a man about a computer. I drove all the way out past the fair grounds, to a trailer park, to a guy who leaves in a beat up old camper, with decaying front teeth, four kids, a mullet, and a huge ass truck, but you know what, this man knows more about computers than anyone that I know, or have known, even my dad. I went there to learn how to use my new bsd computer, it taught me some of the commands, how to use xwindows, a little about lynx, the mplayer, it was all pretty sweet. It tought me how to set up the root user, the different groups, how to network a little, it was pretty sweet. So I drive back home with my new computer, and hook it up, then try to use the ethernet, but it didn't recognize the router or something, so I had to ping it, after gettin the IP address, then it worked. Then I had to configure the video settings to fit the monitor, then do a bunch of other stuff, then it worked. Got the xwindows to work, so I'm happy. Then I hung around, Laura came over, then I went next door, and hung out with a bunch of people, lots of food, and a lot of people that knew me, but I didn't know them. Then I went back home and Laura, Travis, and Tim were there, and we hung out for a while, then I called Blaze, and did the thing I wanted to do. then I went to sleep. Today I woke up, and I'm gonna pick up blaze from work, and hopefully hang out with her for a good while. I love Blaze.
