Tangerine Dream

So, 9 years ago, I decided to download some songs by the Penguin Cafe Orchestra. And when doing it while using the software I was using to download it, there was a music file that I had downloaded. The music file I downloaded may have been mis-labled or something. The only clue I had was it said "Tangerine Dream". I think according to the file, it said the song was "Tangerine Dream", by Penguin Cafe Orchestra, album, Penguin Reference, or something like that so I did some research on Penguin Cafe Orchestra to see what all albums they had and what songs were on there, and that song I had downloaded wasn't from any of those albums. But I decided to keep the music file anyway, because I thought the music was pretty. I even used it for some footage I recorded when I went to the zoo in Milwaukee and later posted it to youtube.com since youtube was always badgering me about what music I put on my slideshows and montages, after uploading them. I never found out what th...

Valentine's day part 1

Well, Valentine's day came a little early for my boyfriend. I say this because Jason got his Valentines day stuff that I got him just a few days early, this year. He also got it a few days early, last year, too. This year I got him a goody bag with a bag of heart shaped recess peanut butter cups. I also got him a card with a Red Lobster gift card in the card, since he had been saying that he wanted to eat at Red Lobster, at some point. I figure we can either use those cards to go out to eat for Valentines Day, considering there's something I saw on tv that I thought looked good. I know it had lobster and it also included scallops and I forget what else. And with Jason's birthday being in March, I figured, we could also use them to go there, too. Anyways, I'm sorry to keep mentioning this but it sounds like our chances of being able to move back into Waukesha are currently 25% to 0%. But with it still being the beginning of the year where anything can happen, and we ha...

This month's Flavor at Starbucks.

Well, I did it! I finally got to try this year's flavor for Valentine's Day at Starbucks. I found out last night what this year's flavor was going to be for Valentine's Day. It might not be the flavor it was last year, but it still works. I would have liked to try the chocolate molten lava cake one last year, but I was broke. So I promised myself that this year when they made it known what this year's flavor was for Valenine's Day, that I would try it, then. And I finally got to try it! So that's one goal I achieved for this year! At least I can say, that's one thing I got to do this year, which makes my year a little bit better for me. So that's also a highlight of the month for me, so far. I also used a Starbucks gift card to buy the drink, which saved me some money. So the highlights of the year for me so far include: 1. getting paid some extra money at the beginning of the year 2. Seeing the weather get above freezing 3. Just being able to go...

Another month has gone by!

Well this is it! Today we're at our half way mark as far as our lease is concerned. Here I was wondering how I was going to make it through January of this year, and we made it. Luckily, we did have that January thaw that kept coming in going, resulting in having temperatures get above freezing. But now, they're just as cold as they were at the beginning of this month as they were in the beginning of last month. Yuck! But on the plus side, my balance went back up. I also found a good way to start the month, and so yeah I'd say I'm having a good start to the month. Now, when I went to the autism conference last year, I didn't get to stay the night at the Kalahari Resort in the Wisconsin Dells where it was being held. But this year, I made sure that if I go to the autism conference again this year, that at least I was going make sure that I got to stay the night at the Kalahari Resort where the Autism Conference was just being held. I know that last year I only staye...
