Humberto's Thoughts

My wife and I accompanied a couple of friends on black Friday to Best Buy… what an experience. The 4:00am awakening was well worth the deal just to witness the line that extended from best buy to the nearest store half a mile away. We stand in line for about half an hour and got free donut while we were waiting.. it was fun. After we finally entered the store, although really crowded, people were ordered; our friends got what they were looking for (a gorgeous 42” HDTV) at a really good price. All in all, a cool experience :) The only complaint was that I got the wrong version of the 300 DVD. Instead of picking the special edition I chose the normal edition and got charged full price instead of the black Friday price; the cashier wasn’t kind enough to let me know my mistake. Fortunately I did realized of my mistake the same day and got chance to exchange the DVD and get a refund back.

I can't help it... the damn thing is addictive!

I've been playing Halo 3 matchmaking on xbox live for the past 2 weeks. The thing is really addictive. I still suck at the game but it so funny to tagteam to kill the opposite team. I wonder if my fingers (and my brain) will ever be fast/precise enough to become a decent player in this kind of games :)

Oh boy, ...almost there... almost there :)

Yes, I forgot to mention that we are finally back at Redmond. The Visa stuff got sorted out :)

You got to admit that these devices are so much better (than the previous version of course he he). I’m not a “device” guy, meaning that I don’t have any personal music player; I just hate to carry stuff around. Every time I look at my old brick cell phone I tell my wife “That is it, I’m getting a new phone.. one of those all in one”.. but there isn’t yet one that convinces me… the Iphone is close, pretty darn close.. if it would only work with exchange natively. Anyway, back to the point, as I said, I’m not a music player guy but…but... I’m definitively getting a Zune 2.0.. a flash version, 8 GB probably. It looks cool, is light, nice capacity, excellent navigation, pretty good software, FM tuner (that is a BiiiiG plus for me). Definitively a step on the right direction.. now we have to start running J

I miss our place :( ... Come one U.S. Embassy!.. hurry up.

:) 48 hours more or less so that I can pick-up my approved visa; yuhuuu!. We are still waiting for my wife's Visa..hopefully it will be ready soon.

En esta ocasion si pude obetener mi licencia permanente de manejo. .. Despues de 2 horas y media!! Es increible la falta de sentido comun que tienen las oficinas gubernamentales. No se necesitan teorias de colas o matematicas avanzadas para darse cuenta que 15 personas capturando datos y solo una tomando fotos NO funciona. En caso de que les interese experimentar en carne propia un tipico tramite mexicano, los invito a que asistan a la Comercial Mexicana de Miguel Angel de Quevedo de 12:00 a 2:00 de la tarde... es toda una experience religiosa :)
