Today was pretty boring. But not in a bad way. Just a very relaxed way. I woke up not long after eight o'clock and instead of just rolling over and going back to bed, I stayed in bed and watched TV, played Fantasy Life, and eventually read my book. I watched Cocktails, a Tom Cruise movie I hadn't seen before. It was real convenient when he went down to Jamaica from New York and fell in love with a white girl from New York while working at a bar on the beach. And it got real dark near the end. But I liked the movie. Not something I'll watch again any time soon but I liked it. I also watched Silverado. I caught the last half of it last weekend so I found another showing of it this weekend and recorded it so I could see the whole thing. I'm fairly certain I had heard of the movie before, maybe even seen bits and pieces, but I'm not sure why it took me so long to see the whole thing. It was really good and Kevin Costner was squirrelly as hell. My favorite part of the movie is when Kevin Costner is leading his horse while reading a book and his nephew tries to jump off the porch and onto the horse. I don't really care about that but the best part is that Kevin Costner's horse is wearing his hat.

Before dinner we took down the Christmas tree. It didn't come anywhere close to going back into the box. I think maybe one of the big pieces and the little top piece could probably be squeezed in there but the second big piece definitely won't. I think the plan is to just put a sheet over the box.

After dinner I went and god blizzards at Dairy Queen. I can't remember the last time I had a blizzard but I'm fairly certain it has been several years. I kept it simple and went with an Oreo blizzard because that is what I had been craving. The blizzard of the month was an Oreo cake blizzard that included rainbow sprinkle frosting. That sounded interesting but I didn't want to risk it being super sugary and weird because me getting a blizzard is obviously a rare occurrence.

When I was finished with my dessert I headed over to my dad's house to look into a issue they were having with one of their laptops and their wireless printer. With their other computers when they print, the printer will automatically wake up and print. The laptop just shows the printer as offline. I messed around with stuff but the only solution I found was to make sure the printer wasn't asleep before printing. Although, it will probably be like things at school that start working when I'm around and will probably stop as soon as I leave.

I came over to the old house when I was done at my dad's so I could check internet things and watch last nights episode of SNL. I keep meaning to record it but also keep forgetting. I'm a fan of Kevin Hart and it has been a pretty good episode so far. It's almost over, which is good because I'm tired and want to go home so I can go to bed.
