We finally got the new computer ordered. It is a beast too, we decided to go with dell, as both my husband and I used to work for them as Tech support and we got about 500 dollars in discounts! It is really cool, I cant wait to get it, we mailed off the check on Thursday, so it will probably be like 2 weeks before we get it. It will have a 20 inch LCD monitor (OMG YES!! LOL) 2 gigs of ram, a 360 or something gig hard drive, 2 dvd players (one is a DVD burner) ummm, a AMD dual core 4400 or something processor, Windows Vista Home Premium, etc etc LOL, lets just say it ROCKS!!

I am so happy we found a good deal, this computer is almost 5 years old and has been soooo slow even with 768 mb of memory, and it has been making funny hard drive noises, and if this computer were to die, well, I would be soooo screwed! So I have a weight lifted off my shoulders knowing I am alot safer now with work.

Aghhh! This irritates me, on channel 4 today, that have been showing commercials for a news special about hidden safety dangers, It first advertised yesterday (that I saw it) and the only air time mentioned has been ‘all day event’ — well, it is 4pm and it still has not come on, soooo how in the heck is it an all day event? maybe all afternoon, or all evening, but it is not all day! Little things like that irritate me!

UPDATE: The show did not come on till 7pm and lasted one hour….. ummmmmmmm NOT ALL DAY PEOPLE!! I cant be the only one upset over this!?!?! LOL

Saw this over at Lisa’s site, and just had to share! It is too true!

Do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are getting dead?

If people evolved from apes, why are there still apes?

Why is it that no matter what color bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white?

Is there ever a day that mattresses are not on sale?

Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?

Why is it that no plastic bag will open from the end on your first try?

How do those dead bugs get into those enclosed light fixtures?

When we are in the supermarket and someone rams our ankle with a shopping cart then apologizes for doing so, why do we say, “It’s all right?” Well, it isn’t all right, so why don’t we say, “That hurt, you idiot?”

Why is it that whenever you attempt to catch something that’s falling off the table you always manage to knock something else over?

In winter why do we try to keep the house as warm as it was in summer when we complained about the heat?

How come you never hear father-in-law jokes?

Ok, it is serious now! I am about 14 pounds away from my no zone, a place I do not want to hit… so I am seriously, no joking, no procrastinating, going on a diet and workout plan TODAY…. this can not happen. I have never been this overweight and I will not allow it.. So far I have only had coffee today, and I worked out for 30 minutes.. that was tough, I am sooo out of shape.. any suggestions for good CHEAP diets and really easy workouts for a very out of shape housewife? I have got to loose weight. I want to get back down to 150 ASAP… that is 36 pounds to loose… I will NOT hit 200…. will not.. thinking positively. I am going to have broccli for dinner tonight… period… God… this is pitiful, just thinking about a diet is making me hungry!

We went to the fish store last weekend and picked up some great corals, one is a xenia, and the other is a mushroom polyp. They are both just babies, so they have alot of growing to do yet. But I was able to grab some decent pictures of them. I just ordered a skimmer and some special coral food that should be here this week, so they will have a even better chance of survival. I got them at a great price, so hopefully it will be worth it! :-) My 30 gallon is STILL cycling, so no new fishies there yet!
