Sigh…

Forwarn, this is simply a rant with no real bearing or message.
I am tired of being sick.  I wasn’t sick when growing up, so it must have all been being stored up and now I get to pay the price.  I am tired of being achy, and in pain.  This sucks.  It’s not as though I am doing anything wrong, I am taking my drugs, staying away from certain foods, and generally taking it easy when not feeling well.

Sigh… enough of that.  Since it is Halloween I suppose I should say something about that.  So since we moved to our new neighborhood, there are tons of little kids around.  Which means there will be tons of little trick or treaters…I wanted to be absent from our house but apparently that is not a viable option.  Erin is worried about what will happen if we are not there.  She was traumatized as a young child when “hoodlums” decided to massacre her pumpkin.  I told her I have a completely viable solution.  I will go to our second story window, play on my computer and whenever a “hoodlum” decides to egg our house or kick in a pumpkin (not that we have any out there) I would shoot him (cuz its an unfortunate trait of the male gender, you know its a him) with a paintball gun.  I even started day dreaming about setting up an active defense matrix.  It wouldnt be that difficult.  I have the video camera and the video capture board on my computer.  I know how to build a motor controlled by serial cable, then just attach the gun to it.  The difficult part would be finding the software to do it automatically(to track targets and analyze the difference between “hostile” and the little bumblebee costumes), but in a day dream thats just a technicality and easily over looked.  Oh well, I guess the kids get off free…at least for this year.
