I am here!
So my favorite (not really, just convenient) pool and dart establishment close to work is now going out of business as a result of the new town no-smoking ordinance. ok really their drinks were too expensive and they had horrible service but I think they were looking for a good excuse to close their doors. Anyways, no more free darts or free pool Mondays.
As part of my video game hobby to pass the time and stay out of trouble while Melissa is not home from work I bought a game called Guitar Hero. It came with a play guitar that I can hook up to my xbox. We actually had a Guitar Hero party last Friday where we had head to head competitions and a bracket for individual competition, I came in second! Anyways the game is fun to play w/ friends simultaneously so I might go over to my friend Ryan's house from work for "band practice". The game actually resembles playing a guitar very well, simulating many techniques such as up-down strumming, hammer-ons and pull-offs, and the guitar in the music stops or makes a string broken noise when you miss a note. It makes me feel like the rock star I was never able to be!
For those that don't already know my friend Mike Rejmenczak's brother was married last Saturday so I got a chance to run into the Jackson family and some other old familiar faces. Mike is in Alabama training to be a warrant officer and then onto 18 months of helicopter training to be a pilot.
We then went to Steve's in Romeoville for the after hours party and then spent the night at 2102 to wake up to a wonderful Easter breakfast with our fabulous parents. We later stopped by Grandmas for a short visit and got to hear first hand about the abominable theft of her diamond pendant. The traveling road show then went to South Elgin to spend Easter afternoon at Melissa's Uncle's house.
Other than that I'm just waiting for some warm weather so I can get some outdoor painting done and launch my hydrogen rocket!
PS - they need emoticons so I can better express my feelings/emotions while writing :)
Love, Dave

Dave - you are a video game GEEK! But if it keeps you out of trouble then by all means, rock on. I'm actually kinda curious (okj and maybe a little jealous) and would love to see you in action and hear some of your 'riffs'.
