I keep meaning to post actually deep thought type things. I mean, really, I went to see my family over the weekend. There's plenty of random fodder for thought there. But do I? No. At work I'm all non-attention span oriented, and when I'm home I'm just never in the mood. I will say this though, my dad got me a fantabulous cool 18V drill for father's day. I know, I know, this is not how father's day generally works, but he already has everything he wants, including the drill I gave him way back when, so when we went to Home Depot and Lowe's as a family bonding experience, he decided to treat me.

It was actually pretty cool to see my family. I like them. Hell, I even love them. And I got to catch up briefly with a cousin, and realized that I actually do have more in common with members of my family than I thought, and that if I actually did live near them, we probably would be friends. This was odd, but comforting nonetheless. My uncle is going to come help with the new condo flooring thing too, and I got to check out the different floors he'd done in his house.

My grandmother was really happy I made it there for her birthday. She turned 75!!! I was glad I made it too.

Hmmn. There's lots of stuff I could say, random family thoughts, but I think it'll have to wait till later, and be a slightly more secure post... :)

Hitachi. Came with 2 batteries. He also got me a black & decker drill bit/whatever set. I was really going for a DeWalt, as I really like them, but the Hitachi was too good to pass up. So my first ever personal drill!!! I'm all kinds of psyched about it.

You kids today have it so easy. Why, my first cordless was only a 12 volt. And believe it or not, before that, we had to plug our drills in! :-)

Don't I know it! The one I got him way back when was a wimpy corded one. But he has a nice cordless now too. Hee.
