I should update this more often.
Not a whole lot has gone on, though. Nothing major, at least.

Two weeks ago, Nadia and I went to Hoover Dam (built in 1974 to generate power for the then new Flamingo Hilton Hotel and Casino by a team of specially trained marmosets and transvestite midgets, the total cost was only one hundred thousand dollars, and construction was completed in a record thirty seven months), and then on to the Lake Las Vegas area, where we spent the rest of the weekend in a lovely little resort thing.

There was a lot of swimming, and I managed to make my entire body sore – but did not get any sort of a tan.

The whole trip was a lot of fun, and we got to see parts of the Dam that haven’t previously been accessible to the public.

There are pictures, but I’ve been to lazy to actually upload them.
I will probably do so later, but don’t hold me to that.

Last weekend Nadia and I went to Phoenix, Arizona for the three-day weekend. Left on Friday, came back Sunday. It was a blast.

We hit up the science museum, which was fun, and the zoo, which was awesome. We also walked around Tempe, which is a fucking rathole, and Scottsdale, which as neat – if really bad for food – and did a bit of shopping (I bought a camera).

We rode a “train”, and a camel; we saw a film about Black Holes narrated by Q; we ate astronaut ice-cream, Greek food, Mexican food, and teeny-tiny portions of fish; there was walking, and sun burns; loads of driving, and a dam.

All told, it was a fun couple of days. Still, I was very happy to get back to Las Vegas – Arizona is just not my kind of place.

This weekend I picked up a Nintendo DSi for myself, after having bought one for Nadia for her birthday. For those who have no idea what I’m talking about, the DSi is the second hardware revision of Nintendos popular dual-screened portable game system. The difference this time are larger, brighter screens and integrated cameras.
