My stupid brain
by Denise Sawicki on June 27, 2008

It seems I have quite a lot of former friends who wound up really, really, disliking me. So I am always alert to signs of that happening again. It's nobody's fault but my own, I assure you. I need a brain transplant. Anyway I came up with a new motto. "So you think it's annoying knowing me? Just imagine how annoying it is to be me" :-P

Don't go computer shopping at 6 AM...
So, we have an old and crummy computer that's been bothering us for years, and for reasons that I can't get into, it suddenly became critical to go computer shopping at 6 AM on Saturday. :P I got a digital video camera for my birthday and Darrell took some awesome videos of Philip and we wanted something that would be capable of video editing. I headed out to Walmart at 6 AM on Saturday, looked at the stats of the various computers,. Go »
