Not for myself

An eletronic library of 100 DVD/CDs -- how convenient!

It would have been useful for me a year ago. Not now.

休養中

多謝親愛的弟兄姊妹的禱告、問候和關懷，今天的病情稍見好轉。咳嗽輕微減少，燒退了、不再頭痛至頭fing fing了。明天要和弟兄點降臨節的蠟燭，到時大家請退避三舍。請請。

小生命的誕生

我的大嫂於星期二誕下了龍鳳胎！時間較早和孖胎的關係，他們大概重五磅多，但是一切正常。難以致信，大哥居然變成了一位父親。在電話裏還同我講開 Xbox 360 的遊戲呢。一切都感謝主。

我累了

今天累了，想在可安歇的水邊躺下。

Treating myself this Christmas

Overstock.com was amazing! It took only two plus days to get the order shipped to me with the standard ground shipping option!

I wore the shoes the whole day and found it very comfy even for the first day of use. It was a very decent buy. And kudos to Overstock.com.

My political compass

Here are the results of a test on my political views:

It was snowing!

Outside the cafeteria @ 11:21 AM

I was silly to have parked my car in the open. So I moved it into the underground garage. Let's see how the traffic will become tonight. I will probably make a detour to avoid climbing up the hill on my way home.

Outside the cafeteria @ 1:24 PM

It has been snowing for the last two hours. The snow is gradually piling up. The ground has become slushy. I had to be careful while I walked around.

Inside my office @ 4:21 PM
Three hours later, it's snowing no more.

Treating myself this Thanksgiving (2)

iRobot is now offering discount for my employer. Given the lack of time for household chores, I am seriously thinking of getting one of those vacuum robots this season. Check out the website by clicking on the image and see it in action.

UPDATE 12/03/2005: I made the order to purchase Roomba Scheduler with the discount and free shipping offer. Before this I have already checked out the detailed review. There will be qute a bit to maintain but it should still be worth the investment.

UPDATE 12/15/2005: It's scheduled to arrive on the 19th. My place is a mess right now. I'll need to everything off the floor before I can test it out.

UPDATE 12/20/2005: I got it from the management office on my way to work this morning. I left it in my office to charge up overnight (16 hours +).

Treating myself this Thanksgiving

I just made the order from TechForLess.com today. This item has been discontinued at Office Depot. I am excited about its capability to shred staples, credit cards, and even small paper clips. Much anticipated.

UPDATE 12/7/2005
It arrived on Monday. Only then I noticed that I ordered the strip-cut model, rathan than its confetti-cut sibling (OD1200C). I learned that it was way more powerful than the miniture shredder I have been using for years. And the new one does shred credit cards without a problem. The only issue I have encountered so far is that it can get full quite easily. And when it's full, it refuses to take in more paper. When it happened, I thought it was a paper jam, as I have stuck in many pages of paper at that time. But everything got back to normal after I cleaned out the bin. Lastly, this thing is not light, at least not as light as I would expect. My old (working) shredder can finally retire. I wouldn't minding give it away for free.
