More Shopping

Went to the computer store today, looking for some components to upgrade my computer.  I've been thinking I would use the money i've been saving to just upgrade parts, rather than getting a whole new computer.  I realized when i was there that i didn't know certain things that i needed in order to buy some of the parts!

So the only thing I got was a replacement for the study cam.  maybe next weekend i'll take a notebook with me!

Groceries

Went grocery shopping today.  We bought pretty much essentials - stuff to replenish the pantry.  Got a couple of meats on sale at wal-mart, but otherwise just 'stuff'.

It was a rather expensive trip. :(

So here's a question...

Did gas prices go up forty cents today because some speculators said gas prices were going to go up?  Seems to me every time 'they' predict a rise in prices, prices rise.

Conspiracy? or just Coincidence?

National Treasure

After rewatching the movie, sometimes I wonder if there was some kind of treasure long ago.  Not really the way the movie depicted it, but what did happen to the ark of the covenant, or the other things under Solomon's temple?  Are they still buried in the desert somewhere?  Did they even exist?  Was it all aliens?

Who knows...but I do wonder about it.

Long days again

I'd forgotten how much 'fun' it was working 11-12 hour days.  At least this day was broken up by having a company sponsored cookout in the middle.

Still, tired as a dog tonight!

Vintage TV

I think I know why old tv shows never showed the spouses in bed together.  It's because they slept in separate beds and/or rooms because the other spouse snored.

Which is why I slept on the couch last night.  Simpler than being woken up every so often because my snoring was keeping her awake.

What a day

Spent all day in a conference room training the project manager on our systems.  That wasn't fun.

Plus my back hurt in a couple places all day, and now my eyes are giving me fits.  I swear, if this body had a warranty, it's long since expired.
