DMB Concert

Anna flew down to Seattle on Friday. She drove over to the Gorge Amphitheater and watched the Dave Matthews Show last night. Today she drove down to Portland with her friends and tomorrow it’s off to the Olympic Peninsula for a couple days of hiking.

WTF?

As I drove to work this morning I heard that my employer is to be the vice-presidential candidate for John McCain. I immediately said, “What the fuck? What the fuck?” I drove to work and told one of my co-workers. Her response, “What the fuck?” Then my secretary came in to the office a little bit later and her exclamation was “What the fuck?”.

I think that sums it up fairly well.

New Job

So, after avoiding any manner of responsibility at work, I have now been promoted to a supervisor position.

Apple

So I went out and did it last night. After months of hemming/hawing I decided that I would just order the damn thing already.What put me over the edge was that tonight (even as I type) my monitor (19″ LCD) on my mid-2005 HP 3.0GHz Pentium 4 is going crazy. Colors are everywhere and there’s a weird ghosting. Yes, I could go out and get a new flat-panel but that would just be chasing after it with bad money.

I should join the Apple ranks (just as my wife did several years ago when I got her a MacBook and several months ago when I bought her another one to replace the first one that got stolen) within a week. I got a refurb one b/c it will save me a couple hundred bucks and I don’t do anything very taxing on my computer any longer. I also ordered 4GB of RAM tonight so I’ll install that when I get the iMac.
