Life in QHD

One week with the new laptop and I'm really digging the new features. The thing is light as hell, has great build quality (feels rock solid), super quick with the 4th gen i5, and generally amazing. Did I mention the QHD touch screen? I never knew how much as I was missing out on until now. It's nice having four times the pixel density compared to my lovely 4 year old laptop. Images are unreal. I have enough resolution to have side by side windows open and see everything in person. The only drawback so far has been the keyboard. Even though it is a Levono, which means it's coming from good pedigree, the thin chassis makes for a less smooth feedback and feel. It will probably take a little getting used to. I didn't know how good I had it before I suppose.

It's a blessing to have weekends off. I finally have had a chance to explore Philly and the surroundings. I finally get to play hockey. It's a little rough in the mornings, since it starts at 7am, but it is well worth it. Beating the goalie top corner on a wrister and then five hole on a breakaway makes also helps to ease the lack of sleep. Always take a few shifts to get my skating legs back, but feels good to be out there. Wish I could play more, but scheduling the time is not going to happen soon.

The crowning foodie achievement occurred yesterday in the form of Del Frisco. I've never paid that much for a steak before. It was worth every penny. The experience was unreal. The atmosphere was great, the service was outstanding, and the meat was sweet, tender bliss. I've had a taste of the good life and now I want more.
