Spring Breakin’
Someone come do my taxes so I can go out and play!! *whine*This being the last day of spring break ... I am trying to resist getting a jump on the first assignments due next week. I only have a short essay for World Lit, and a C++ program to write by Thursday. Tough week, eh?
But I chose to do a yoga class today ... an advanced class! And I did well! (belly dance class tomorrow!) Then goof off for a while ... and start my income tax filing. Yuck. But I will get a fairly sizable refund this year, most of which will go to paying off the credit cards I ran up when I was out of work last year, and then again when my daughter moved in with me. Her father kept all her stuff, won't let her have it and I had to replace everything. So, getting those paid off and closed out will be a financial relief. I need a better paying job though ... I'm losing ground fast, and I still have Financial Disaster looming in the future. But ... I will not dwell on that now.
Vista! I found out that I can get the Business Premium version for free through my school, but the licensing would end when I left or graduated. Or, I can get Home Premium Upgrade for either $60 or $80 ... again, due to my status as a college student. Sweet. But, to upgrade my computer to be able to run it? Oy ... I need a better graphics card - that is a pain in the ass to find, everything is now PCI-Express, and all I have is AGP. And I need a better CD/DVD drive, and might as well get a burner. I guess I should go shopping ... and bleg for suggestions.
Anyway ... my son and his girlfriend want to be fed. So, we're off to Fuddruckers. Hmm, and with Best Buy right next door ...
Happy Saturday!
