once more, into the breach

...
We made yet another attempt to upgrade our computer tonight. After much hemming and hawing (and 2 failed actual purchases: bought, brought home, set up, and then returned because of technical failures/recalls/other weirdness) we ordered a really kick-ass media pc from HP. It won't get here until, about, July. Oh well. It's only 6x faster than what I am currently typing on, so I'm looking forward to using it when I get back from vacation. DH will still be here when it arrives...

DH also bought another TiVO for upstairs (it was way cheap)... and I did a bunch more damage at Target. It was a spendy kind of day. I think it's because I got paid, LOL. That money is burning a hole in our pockets... actually that money is all spent now, but at least I won't have to pay taxes on it now.

Hoping to go to the zoo in the A.M. tomorrow, so I'm off to bed. I took my first minocycline this evening. I'm hoping it goes well but at the same time not hopeful. Does that make sense? I'm at the verge of just saying, screw it, and stopping taking EVERYTHING for a while (well, except the thyroid meds) just to see how I feel when I don't take this stuff...my labs came back from the g/e dr all fine. I think I'm going to call on Tues and have them fax the results over to me, I'd like to take a look at 'em.

Raiders of the Lost Ark is on USA. What a great movie. It really sucks that you can't just buy a Raiders DVD, you have to buy the whole set. Frankly, the other 2 films are not worth owning, IMO. But then again, I just bought the kids 3 DVD this afternoon: Larry Boy and the Rumor Weed,Spy Kids 2, and another Kipper DVD, this one, "Water Play." It has my favorite "The Rainbow Puddle" on it. I'm psyched. It doesn't take much to make me happy some days. Hee!
