I guess I lost the bet, huh? I totally forgot to write last night. I’ve been so caught up with tracking my new computer, I suppose everything else just sort of got pushed out from my mind.
My computer order was completed last Monday and turned over to FedEx. FedEx in turn, gave me a tracking [...]

The Bet: Day 4 – Grandson’s Antics
Posted in General, tagged grandkids, grandparents, messes, scary antics, terrible twos on July 22, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Today was a rather frustrating if not downright scary day for me. The DQ and her Cuz went to the second Biggest Loser interview — which they made — and I got to keep Zee for a few hours. I didn’t think it would be that bad since he hadn’t yet taken a nap. I [...]
The Bet: Day 3

Here I am again, with nothing much to say. The maid came over today and as usual, she was late. People who are habitually late are right up there on my pet peeve list. Anyway, so she comes over, does a shitty job and leaves me to clean up after her. I should tell her [...]
The Bet: Day 1

My first entry. I don’t have much to say just yet, but I did get some awesome news. Seems the DQ and her cousin went and tried out for The Biggest Loser (the TV show) and they both made it. Sounds interesting but really difficult.
For one thing, you have to be away from your family [...]
A bet is a bet

Me and my big mouth did it again. As part of a bet, I now have to blog every single day for 30 consecutive days. I never have anything to blog about on a daily basis, so this is going to be difficult for me. Not that anyone reads this blog except for my friends, [...]
According to Alienware…

My computer will be ready for shipping by July 25th, and then it will be 3 to 5 business days before I get it. I guess I’ll have to wait and see since I have no other options. Being without a second computer is definitely hard. I find myself turning to the current second one [...]
Oops, my bad

Turns out it wasn’t my monitor after all. It was my computer the whole time, and now I sold my monitor (which was perfectly good) to a half-price store for the total sum of $50.00. How stupid can you get? I didn’t even try the monitor on another computer before I declared it dead. Stupid!
Anyway, [...]
6 Reasons for Living

This morning I discovered my main computer’s monitor had gone kaput. Dead as a doornail. Naturally I went berserk. Fell apart, had a conniption, went bonkers, and started both drooling and foaming at the mouth all in one fell swoop. I can’t live without 2 computers on my desk. Gah! Oh, sure, I can use the [...]
Blogs vs. Blogs

Beats the hell out of me as to why I do it, but I’m constantly trying out new blogs and blog communities. Maybe I just like tinkering with setting up sites, I don’t know. I should really stop it because after all the blogs and communities I’ve tried, including my own domains, nothing beats WordPress [...]
