Two years ago I got married to the one woman who could actually make me happy. Two years ago I gained a kind of happiness I never thought I’d had. Two years ago.

You saved me from a life of agony and despair, you gave me hope, love, and so much more. I love you with all my heart, and with all my soul.

I wish there was a way to show you just how much you mean to me, but it would require the world to unite as one, the heavens to be opened, and the music to never stop playing.

All I can do right now is pray that one day I can provide for you the life that you deserve, for less stressful times to start, and more relaxing times to begin.

I love you baby, always and forever.

Everyone knows the silly games that comes pre-installed with every Windows system, they’ve been around forever. In their latest version they added a few new games alongside their traditional cardgames. I especially love the fact they added a Mahjong to their collection as I have always been a big fan of the game. It is very enjoyable.

Other games I enjoy is Hearts and Solitaire, which is called Patience over here in the Netherlands. Now I think of myself of being at least slightly intelligent, and certainly smart enough to handle a cardgame. I know that when I used to play Solitaire in Windows XP I did pretty good and was winning about two thirds of the games. It’s mostly chance based, but there’s a small amount of skill involved as well.

Now, today, as I was idling a bit and chatting on IRC, I started up Solitaire and managed to lose not once, not twice, but thirty-three times in a row before finally winning one. That’s 33 times! That’s one big losing streak. I swear Vista is switching the underlying cards that are still faced down to make me lose. It almost feels statistically impossible to lose so many times in a row.

Solitaire for the lose!

I’m still loving Vista, but I’m telling you they made that game a lot harder!
