Should order that new computer this weekend. I now see why Hell computers are putting everyone out of business. They offer the same perks for hundreds less while offering the worst customer service and repair record I've ever been forced to deal with. I didn't want another Dell but given I can get a better computer system with all the peripherals from them for at least 200$ less than what Gateway or Best Buy/Circuit City is asking for just a TOWER I have little choice. Sigh.

I was so excited. My first class did so much better on their second exam. Their essays were great. They made me so happy. The second class took the same test. Only 6 people out of 20 passed. (compared to only 4 out of 20 failing in the other class)Same material, presented and tested on exactly the same way. I'm wondering if having to sit for three hours once a week (compared to one hour meetings for the better class) had something to do with it.

I'm almost done with one of my charity stories. And I have another chapter of southernbangel's charity story done. And I'm moving on both my original fiction novels. I'm starting to feel accomplished (now to go poke the people participating in my series since no one noticed the final chapter was posted or at least have yet to comment on it).

Holiday Wishes

For those on my Flist who celebrate it, may you have a good day of reflection this Yom Kippur.

Help?

I've got the first little bit of my Halloween story done. Anyone want to look it over for me? (it's non-ship). It's in the universe with Tearing Away the Veil. And if anyone has any good halloween stories dealing wtih the misadventures of a one year old and don't mind me using them, let me know. Thanks!
