  • It Always Comes In The Middle Of The Night

    Well, it’s around 2:20 am and my phone just rang. It was the doctor at the transplant clinic and she was calling to say that they had a potential lung for me. They had one thing they were waiting to hear on, but if that was okay it was a go. They wanted me to start getting ready to come up to the hospital.

    So I’m freaking out just a tiny bit now. Even if I go up tonight it still isn’t 100%, but it’s pretty damn close. I’m not sure how long this means I’ll be offline for. I would like to have access again fairly soon, but that isn’t anything definite. I’m surprisingly calm about the whole thing right now. Though we’ll see how things as I get closer to the hospital.

    I’ll try and post again as I hear more (I’m going to try and do one from the road). Otherwise it may be a week or so before you hear anything. Wish me luck!

  • Powerpuff Girls Anime!?

    I’m still a bit speechless on this one. The images are kind of funky looking. I still can’t decide if this will be a good thing or a bad thing.

    Powerpuff Girls Anime Announced
    Plans for a Powerpuff Girls anime were announced at the Tokyo Animation Fair. A joint venture between Toei Animation, Aniplex, and Cartoon Network, the new project will be tentatively titled “Demashitaa! Powerpuff Girls Z.” Posters from the booth can be seen on AV Watch here and here. [via Anime News Network]

  • Technology and Jumping Forward

    Last night everyone was supposed to have set their clocks ahead an hour. But here’s the strange thing. With the exception of my phone, everything else I have that keeps time changes its time automatically. No need for me to do a thing. I had a moment this morning where I was looking around trying to figure out how I could tell that the time change happened. If my phone wasn’t stupid and not able to do it on its own I’d still be clueless.

    Now I have to figure out if there is anything else that I need to change by hand.

  • When It Rains At the Drive-In

    So I just realized that the drive-in theatre that is semi-close to me opens this weekend. And Sin City is showing. Now I just need to find someone to go with.

  • Gotta Find One of Those Caps

    Google has announced their latest project: Google gulp! (with auto-drink(tm)).

    Think fruity. Think refreshing.
    Think a DNA scanner embedded in the lip of your bottle reading all 3 gigabytes of your base pair genetic data in a fraction of a second, fine-tuning your individual hormonal cocktail in real time using our patented Auto-Drinkâ„¢ technology, and slamming a truckload of electrolytic neurotransmitter smart-drug stimulants past the blood-brain barrier to achieve maximum optimization of your soon-to-be-grateful cerebral cortex. Plus, it’s low in carbs! And with flavors ranging from Beta Carroty to Glutamate Grape, you’ll never run out of ways to quench your thirst for knowledge.

    I’m still unsure about the bottles reporting information about me to Google, but the Sero-Tonic Water sounds tasty. They are also rolling this out slowly, as they did with Gmail. You can only get some if a friend of yours gives you a bottle cap for it. Hopefully I’m cool enough that I can get one.
