New Laptop
Category: computers
Jeez I think my entire net pay this month is going towards computers. Thank god for my savings account.

Laptop died on Monday, I ordered the replacement, and then when it was too late to cancel the order for the new laptop, the old one magically came to life (a True Christmas Miracle(tm)).

My new one gets here Friday, I'm half excited and half sick over the unneeded expense. The ~20% restock fee on the new laptop would make it kinda stupid to return it, so I'll be trading my old one down the line to friends and family. Everyone gets a bump when I get a new computer.

I am surprised your work doesn't pay for it, seeing as how would you program without it?
jim - 12/02/09 13:35
But i wanna eat it now.
james - 12/02/09 13:33
I can bake it tomorrow night. I will need to get ingredients tonight, if I can. :P

Have you ever seen any pictures of the interior.
paul - 11/30/09 21:20
Ya, it wasn't even an old place when it was demolished.
libertad - 11/30/09 19:36
I'm sure that place would have been haunted.
jenks - 11/30/09 18:25
How sad to see gorgeous old places like that demolished. Esp after only a few decades!

Wreck this Journal

About:

This book was created for anyone who has ever had trouble starting/keeping or finishing a journal/sketchbook. By forcing ourselves to wreck it on purpose, the "journal as an object" loses it's preciousness, and allows us the feeling of completion.
