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).

Enjoying Yahoo Music's "Trick or Treat' station.

Seeing as I know have internet at home again, I'll finally be able to read the final chapter and comment on it and all the others that I've promised I would comment on.

Oh and *pounce*. Consider yourself hugged.

I think that's a distinct possibility, people zone out, even with a break, three hours to absorb info is a long time.

yeah I did. Here at work it works. I'm amazed at how many 'free' ones charge 4$ a month

Sorry about being stuck with Dell but that is a big difference in price. And new fic. How many times have you written the same thing now?

It does feel like forever sometimes. Is it showing in my work? I've been wondering about it, ever since Maren asked a question about her own writing (hell since even before that)
