Ah, this is pretty sweet. Today kicks some serious ace. First, I finally got my stereo that I ordered off eBay– a stinkiin’ steal. 1-bit digital amp, CD and MD, etc– lets just say I got it for like 20% of the next cheapest place you could buy it.
After leaving work early to make sure the Sharp SD-NX10 (my new Auvi stereo) arrived and was signed for (UPS tried to deliver it yesterday and the day before but no one was around at the house to sign for it, so frustrating), I headed out to go meet Joel at 이조 (E Jo), a new Korean restaurant on 3300 So and 700 East in Salt Lake. There we both tried the 갈비 (Kalbi)– as it was lunch time it came in a “lunch box” not unlike the one I got at Sugi’s last summer. Sorry, I slacked and forgot to take pics. Anyways, the food was much better than the one time that I got take-out. I’ll perhaps give a more detailed description in the “more” section below. It was a good time at lunch…
Also, Joel discovered a new Korean Market on 200 east and 3300 south on his way to E Jo. Though he had stopped by already, we went there for his second time and my first. Good find, they had a few things the other Korean market didn’t.
So then I came home and set up my Sharp SD-NX10, dang it’s a beast. A little shy on the bass, but other than that it sounds superb– crystal clear sound. I just rigged it to use my subwoofer and viola, I’m good to go. This thing is such a steal…
There she is… such a beauty.
Then to complete this great day, my new web host kicked in around 8-ish. When I discovered that I was even more joyful. Having access to my web site again, I completed the Movable Type installation successfully– not nearly as hard as I thought it’d be, thanks to some dude who wrote a tutorial on how to set it up specifically on my web server.
So now I’m happily blogging in Movable Type– it is a huge breath of fresh air after having used blogger for a number of months. Please be bear with me as I re-design my site and get everything working. At least I have blogging functionality, but yeah I’ll be overhauling the design of the site– what you see now is more or less the default template, with the exception of the logo/title I threw up there.

Good News Sloanie… not only do they work, but now I can actually check your site when I click on the link to check your site.
Another bonus– the comments should ALWAYS be working. No more of that gay enetation shiz.
Finally, I can stop pining. And you weren’t kidding about the beautiful part – I’m writing love letters to her right now! Perhaps she’ll realize you’re a fool and leave you for me. Come to Llewie, sweetheart. I’ll take good care of you.
nice to have you back, Sloanie!
cool! 머찌다~~ 잘 만들었구만.
I always knew you’d make the switch to some hot asian chick as a background. I just knew it.
yeah. who is that anyway? (ps welcome back to the online community)
Well, though really it wasn’t THAT long of an absense I suppose, it was somewhat frustrating to not be able to post, etc.
Hahah, Jake I’m glad I didn’t let you down. Josh seemed to appreciate her… I was just tinkering with designs for a site that would indicate that I was back (something different so I’d know when the switch was complete) and I had been listening to this Japanese pop artist’s music a lot (and had just gotten her last CD so I made the cartoons dance to her singing and put her as the background. Her name is Utada Hikaru… I’m a fan, heh.
Anyways, thanks everybody– like I said, I still have a ways to go with the design of my blog, but at least I’m back and posting all that stuff that’s really not that exciting, hehe.
She disturbs me. I want to sit her down, put some clothes on her (since she just looks as if she tried to do a scarlett o’hara and pull on a drape), and feed her some ice cream to plump her up.
The beauty of it is… she wouldn’t plump up from just ice cream. Oh Asians… sometimes I wish I was an Asian. I gain five pounds if I breath too much.
Hey hey you! It is so awesome that your site is back! Tell me, I know that this is going to make me sound ignorant, but what is the big deal over movable type? ( keep in consideration that I am so not the most computer literate person 🙂 )
Damn my genes! And my jeans too for that matter.
Though I have seen plump asians. Just kind of chubby not like waddling whales. So, she could be plumped up… maybe.
Richter, Movable Type is another system for blogging, kinda like blogger only much much better. But instead of being hosted elsewhere, Movable Type is installed on my web page so that I dont have to rely on someone else’s page…
It’s just more versatile while yet being free (as long as you have your own web site where it can be installed). Comments are included so I don’t have to use enetation. Comments on here are much more reliable. I can also go backwards in time… write entries for days that have passed and have them still appear in chronological order with the rest of the posts, etc. There are a bunch of other things too, but I’m still learning them all. Thoser are just the main things I like about it.
Sounds awesome hun,sounds like loads of fun 🙂
Hey Sloanie, do you have the user name of the person that you bought your Sharp SD-NX10 from? and how much did you pay for it?
