1. SIGH
2. I am going to get my car washed tonight. It has rain spots on it. I am oddly nervous about this. Weird.
3. I also need to deposit a check, buy stamps and drop off the multiple prescriptions that my new neurologist gave me last week.
4. My new neurologist told me to stop drinking caffeine, which was funny since I don't drink any since I had to give up diet coke. I guess the one cup of coffee a week might have been causing problems. Whatever. I am giving it up. It does mean that I can't take any caffeine to get rid of a migraine either.
5. I had a migraine most of the weekend. It sucked.
6. I did eat a lot of pie. That didn't suck.
7. I am going to make dinner tonight because gwangi brought my computer to be fixed (the power supply went out) and is painting the woodwork for my bathroom. I am using a recipe from Real Simple.
8. Yesterday morning, when I didn't have a headache and it wasn't super hot, I cleaned my house. It is so nice to have a clean house again. I don't like it when it is so hot out that I don't want to clean.
9. Tonight I am going to make Monkey Bread for my coworkers because I am nice like that.
10. My boss is on vacation this week. It is hard to get things done because everyone is checking in with me on things they normally go to him for. :\

Yeah, it does. How much did you think it should cost?

Well, when I build a computer, the power supply is one of the very few things I /never/ cut corners on. I mean, I'll happily get a cheaper AMD CPU and cheaper RAM and a cheaper motherboard, but NOT a power supply. As a result, it is usually the single most expensive component in any computer I build. I usually drop like $100-$200 on the PSU, depending on what kind of machine I'm building.

LOL

I am running a 5 year old Dell that I have put $100 of ram into and upgraded to windows 7. I am pretty sure the power supply that I put into it is an upgrade from the one that came with the computer. This computer just needs to 1) allow me to get on the internet 2) hook up to the xbox 360 so we can watch tv shows that I have downloaded. It doesn't do much more than that.

That's almost even MORE surprising, since Dell use proprietary stuff. Then again I suppose they can yank one out of an old one they might have lying around for parts.

It was a new power supply. I made sure to buy a dell that I could swap up the parts on.
