my week in review – 2009-04-26

April 26th, 2009 · No Comments

Given that I’ve launched a new website to talk about awesome things with a wide appeal to everyone, appropriately called Awesomeopolis, I’d decided that my own personal site will get, well, more Corey-centric, appealing to those who I already know.

With that in mind, I’m launching a weekly segment called “My Week In Review”, which will be a place where I write down things that happened to me during the week, mainly for my own memory.

So without further ado, here was my week in review for the week ending 2009-04-26:

  • Created a Google Profile.
  • Picked up my new glasses.
  • Bowled a 608 series.
  • Concluded a lovely visit from my lovely lady.
  • Kept score by hand when the machine stopped keeping score.
  • Shot a personal best of 49 on the nine-hole Nelson D. Clayton Memorial Golf Course in Glen Mills, PA.
  • Was sad to discover that Wally’s Wiener World, the hot dog shack across from the golf course, has closed up shop.
  • Spent a fun Saturday evening with friends in Atlantic City where I ate my money’s worth in shrimp and walked away with the same money that I came in with.
  • Watched the Rangers take their 2-0 series lead against the Capitals and drop three of four to be forced to play a Game 7 this upcoming week.
  • Trimmed my playoff beard to a playoff goatee so as to be kempt for work.
  • On Wednesday, it rained for five minutes, and I got caught outside in it.
  • Discovered frozen mango pieces at the grocery store and promptly made mango smoothies with them.
  • Had my desktop die on me, and after three hours of messing with it, discovered it was a half-burnt-out connection to the motherboard.
  • Promoptly backed up all of my data after getting the desktop to work again.
  • Went to Ants Pants for the first time in forever.
  • Rediscovered Picasa.
  • In Picasa, realized that “favorite” information for the photos is embedded right into the metadata of the photo itself.
  • Used Exifer to update metadata EXIF information on a bunch of pictures where the date was incorrect.
  • Discovered I have over 18,000 digital photos on my computer, all taken since my junior year of high school.
