1) computer: Having spent the last week or so searching for a new base unit with my friend Brian (who knows way more about all this than me and who helped me find my old computer) we've now decided that he's going to build me one, which will work out slightly cheaper and actually be better than anything we've found so far. Still be craploads of money I don't have, so the bank will own yet another piece of my soul, but at this point I'm so broke anyway it's sort of irrelevant just how huge my overdraft will be. EXCITING THOUGH!

2) paperlegends: Writer sign-ups will close on Friday so please spread the word. If you need prompts, there's some great ones here! SINGING IN THE RAIN! TOP GUN!

3) fringe: I'm a little sad that this season of Fringe is almost over and I think that the episode White Tulip actually broke my heart a little at the end; John Noble is such a good actor. Still, we have a Season 3 to look forward to =)

I've honestly got nothing to talk about - except maybe to tell you my computer update - but I'm trying to make an effort to post more again.


Hope you're all well ♥

I've personally had much better experiences with personally built computers than ready-made computers, so I fully agree with your choice :) When you do it that way you don't have to pay for the not-quite-good-enough pieces you would have had to exchange anyway and you also don't have to pay extra for stuff that's way better than what you actually need :) And at least around here there's usually so much useless stuff thrown in to make it seem like a good buy, when in actuality the extra stuff just doesn't sell on its own but gives them a good excuse to raise the price a bit... Although with self-built computers (or with changing parts to store-bought one) it's always good to remember that "You can't put it in wrong" is sometimes way too optimistic a statement :P Just saying in case you feel any urge to offer to help to put it together :) I sure won't do that mistake for a second time...

Everything you say is the theory of why we're doing it, so I can only hope at this point that it all turns out okay. And no, I won't be offering to help assemble it!

*hugs muchly*
