Today was rather eventful. Jared came over early this morning with his chainsaw in tow and we went at the tree in my side yard. After the ice storm it was missing several branches, and they had to be cut up so they could be hauled away. I called Jared and he was more than happy to come over and help. I think he enjoys using that chainsaw a little too much. He did all the cutting and I did most of the stacking. It was a pain in the ass but we got it done pretty quick. Russ even came down to offer us his yard debris can so I could get rid of more of it this week.

After that I went out to Barnes and Noble and picked up some cool Lord of the Rings books with some Christmas gift cards I got. I got a book called The Lord of the Rings Weapons and Warfare which is pretty sweet, and The Hobbit graphic novel. I've decided that Barnes and Noble sucks though. Their stuff is way over priced. Needless to say I bought some stuff of amazon.com to spite them.

Also played some more Prince of Persia which is a totally badass game. I highly recommend it.
