so I did something I should not have.

I spent $120 on computer RAM.

one module for the new laptop and one module for the old laptop. SHAME ON ME!!!

but the old laptop NEEDED the RAM because it’s so damned slow.

and the new laptop…um….WANTED the laptop because it’s my favorite machine.

and I figured I got my fed taxes back today, so what the hell.

shame on me though, shame on me.

mmmm…..faster computer…..mmmmm…..

since it’s so $%*&#’n cold, I’m heading out to my parents house.

What’s that, Sean? Traveling on such a day?

Yep. It’s only 15 minutes out of town. Plus there’s a dog there that really shouldn’t have to spend another night tied up outside in her dog house. And the ‘rents are out of town.

plus, it’s got wood heat. none of this gas crap. Wood heat from an outside stove = honest to goodness warm.

pick me up some beer, some supper, and a couple of movies, and prepare for a night all to myself.

if anyone wants to know the reason, I suggest they read The Never Ending Story.

it’s got some surprisingly relevant stuff in there.
