I'm still here, honest

[mugglechump]

I've been a little scarce this weekend - not like me at all! Fear not, though, I'm not dead. I got a new computer (so did Urs!). I also got the new Sims 2 expansion pack. And I'm a huge geek. 'Nuff said.

I have a high def monitor now. Things look SO pretty (in the land of the Sims). Squee.

I have a 200GB hard drive. Squee.

I am not yet hooked up to our DSL - I have to dial up at the moment. Boo.

I got a new printer/fax/copier/scanner/blender. Er, well, maybe not that last part. That would be nice, though. I haven't hooked it up yet because I'm still using the filing cabinet as a desk. Meh.

In addition to getting the 'bundle' price from Best Buy, I also got a $100 gift card because the model computer I bought is discontinued and I took the one on display.

Now I just have to move my crap off of James' computer and onto this one. We'll both be happy about that.

Oh, I also bought Artemis Fowl 4 & 5. Haven't gotten very far yet. See above RE: Sims 2.

That's all for now. Hope everyone had a lovely weekend.

*waves* Glad to see you're alive, dear. And I think you should invent the printer/fax/copier/scanner/blender. And perhaps add a coffeemaker. You'd be rich instantly.

*hugs*

*waves enthusiastically back*

Upon further review, it seems my new toy is simply a printer/scanner/copier. It neither blends nor faxes. *le sigh* Coffeemaker, eh? That would be a moneymaker, so long as you could keep the coffee off of your documents. I wouldn't use it myself, though. As much as I adore Starbucks, I never drink coffee at home. I don't even think I have a coffeemaker. Weird, no? For hot beverages at the homestead, I prefer tea or hot Ovaltine with butterscotch Schnapps. Peppermint Schnapps if I'm out of the other.

And wow, completely off topic, I just had a serious wave of vertigo. I hate that.

*just giggles*

I do cocoa and peppermint schnapps sometimes, but that's more of a holiday treat. Mostly I drink tea and coffee at home.

Bummer about the vertigo.

*giggles more* I adore you.
