24" Goodness

After ordering my new screen last Thursday night and setting up a one off payment to the company, I wasn't expecting it to arrive the next day. I thought I'd be getting it around now, but they sent it away on Friday morning, getting delivered to me at 3pm. I was pleasantly surprised, as you would be, but a little confused also. This is because when I checked my account balance online the money still hadn't deposited into their account. Ended up going through on Saturday morning anyway. They must have trusted me.

The screen I have now is the Acer P241W 24". It's a very nice looking display, has HDMI, DVI and VGA ports and boasts an HD resolution of 1920x1200. It sits on a silver base and the screens bezel is a nice glossy black. It also has a 3000:1 contrast ratio and a ery quick 2ms repsonse time.

When I had set it up on my desk I quickly realised I would be needing a new one. So I asked my Dad if he had any recycled Rimu left over to make a desk with and it turns out he did. That evening I went to the pub with him for a beer and Mr Hicks and Treadwell were there also, found that amusing, even though it's not unusual to see some of the teachers over there for a quick one on a Friday.

Got to my Dads house and had a few more up there, sorted out the wood for my desk and then went back home. Greg had been around with Futter to pick up my old screen, which he had purchased. They were going to town apparantly, so was I. So I quickly gave them a txt to see If they hadn't left yet and If I could get a lift in with them. (As I was planning on catching the train) They were still at Jaysons so they came and picked me up and we headed in.

After arriving in town we had to wait for the others who were on the train, they knew whose house we were going to and none of us did. We went into Metro and bought some beers then tried to find a map of Island Bay to see If we could just drive there without them. We found a map and found the others. Let them go catch the bus and we drove up there with the help of the map and the map master 300 (Jayson).

Gregs beers were warm, Jayson and I's weren't. When we arrived at the house we just sat outside in the car to wait for Jordan and the others to arrive because we didn't want to invite ourselves into their house when none of us knew them. The house was up high looking down on us and I took a piss on the ground facing the house and someone looked out the window mid urination. Lulz were had.

They arrived, we entered, we sat, we took over music. Not much happened except some chatting between one another. Went up to the backyard for for some GRASS. It tasted good. Jayson started up a drinking game, I soon failed and wish I had had Export and not Tui. Jayson pretty much owned the game. Then you lost the game. I sat on the couch after that.

Now around this time there was a huge dilemma going on, nobody knows what really happened. Except the people that were involved, who aren't going to tell the truth anyway. So what pretty much happened was Ethans chocolate got stealthily taken and stealthily eaten. Ethan raged and almost left. More lulz were had. He was eating his can of Pringles and had another can unopened. Jordan stealthily took this can and hid it. Ethan didn't know where it was, I said I'd help him. I got up to ask Jordan where they were so I could have a munch and then I was going to take some and give them back to Ethan. But Ethan thought I was just going to get them and eat them myself, so he got up and tried to catch Jordan with them. I had them though, I sat down and had them hidden. After sitting there for a while I opened them while Ethan was playing Piano. I had a few and then he noticed. I bolted to the kitchen and put them on the cabinet. He struck my 3 blows to the back. Cheap shots, Niggers everywhere.

Then he didn't end up eating them all and I got the rest anyway.

The chocolate however... Is still a mystery.

Or is it?

The others had to catch the train, so Futter drove them to the station and then came back to get us. They had cooked us some pizza which we ate and then departed shortly after. Quite rude, but BAWWW.

Went to Mc Donalds and purchased Apple Pies and Sundaes. They were very satisfying.

Got home and slept.
