I really, really, REALLY want a Dell netbook. And I think I could convince my mom to let me use her name to put it on credit for a month until my financial aid comes in. Because. omg guys, pretty and sleek and small and sexy computerness, it's like nerd viagra. I kind of want to get one with a solid state drive because even though it'll be small, I have a 320GB external just lying around I could add, and it would be so light and portable and oh man I need to stop having nerdgasms over the potential, but if I get it this week it's $230 cheaper!

...it's a lot more expensive than, say, all the Asus and Acer books on Amazon, but also: customized. For me. Special like. With a TV tuner so I can watch Heroes anywhere I go. xD

It's not going to replace faithful old Arthur of course, but... he's six years old, and I think I deserve something more new and portable and nifty.


Really, the question will be what do I name it?! xD


*goes back to ogling the customized setup in her wish list*

So what do I name my new laptop? I've got until the 21st to get a name ready. Is Spock too obvious? But... logical...

:D

Well. Today I found out that my body is 33% fat. Clearly, the only reasonable reaction was to come home and eat an ice cream cone.

...no, okay, I worked out for 50 minutes! I didn't just stick dessert in my face, all right? I got some cardio in. I'm thinking, two days a week I'll do treadmill/elliptical/bike, and the third day I'll work on the machines and target actual muscles. Mostly the ones in my butt, lol.

I finally watched a preview for season 4 of Heroes. I avoided them all summer because I know I can't keep my enthusiasm up over months and months, but I can cope with waiting a couple weeks, and it's looking pretty exciting now that I'm letting myself give a damn!

12 geeky cocktails. I could totally slam a few Pan-Galactic Gargle Blasters. :3

No one is home, it's so nice and quiet... time for that bath I've been promising myself, I think. \o/
