it's my birthday and i'm all like, :D.

got a new cable modem
digital cable
paid off the cable bill
bought an xbox 360
none of you except the people who know me on a regular basis will know what else i bought

shock!
on the day before new year's eve, the power cable to my cable modem exploded halfway down, and my bro got a burn on his arm but it didn't hurt. unfortunately, we were without internet for a few days.

i went over to visit my nephew to see if he had a compatable wire, i brought the top half for reference, and he said that the wire from a playstation would work fine, so i took the wire off my ps2 and plugged it into the modem, and it works fine. unfortunately, i'll have to unplug the internet whenever i wanna play playstation games.

other than that i've been getting into FF9 lately and my dad's getting me a sword for christmas, or he said he was going to, he's supposed to be dropping it off some time next week.
