I haven't heard of those, and as for me I was still having issues with my power supply because of the piece of junk it was that I had ordered. >_> So I had to spend $100 to get a whole new one.

Piece of junk computer?

And the two games I mentioned are cellphone fitness games. Yeah, games that try to keep you from getting chair shaped. What a novel idea.

Not the computer, the power supply. Ever time our power went out the supply died permanently even though it was on two surge protectors. Even my old one which wasn't nearly as good specs wise never died for 4-5 years of us having power going out 1-5 times a months, sometimes even in a day. The company's excuse was because I'm supposed to have this other piece of equipment that costs $500 by itself to prevent that from happening. I've been just using surge protectors for years, and it was because my dad, who's a computer scientist for the government, told me to have a surge protector. I had even bought a new one to replace one with something better and it still died. When looking at the power supply my brother and dad figured that the part was not as good quality as my brother thought when he told me to buy it because they don't list all the specs on the sites.

Sounds like the power company's trying something underhand to get more money or something.

Well, the thing is they have to send me a new one if it fails, which I did but I have to pay money to send back the one I have before they will refund the charge for the new one. >_> They just assume people looking for better parts will automatically have this $500 equipment yet their parts are cheaper cost wise, which is why some people would buy it. Which would mean most of them will probably NOT have that $500 equipment. So I wasted $70+ dollars on that part.

I did strip all the screws I could from it, the fan and cover for the fan, and gave the rest to a friend to scrap. That's all the part was worth. :mcmeh:

awww. Bummer.

I am so achy from being out and about all day. But I bought a second short sleeve shirt. It is sparkly. And it was ten dollars.

Considering going into a clothes store can give me a headache? LOL

God was good to me this time, there was a nice lady from Africa who was willing to talk clothes with me, which got me relaxed and ready to look and try on. And the other clothes I bought this month were also in the presence of somebody willing to help.

But oh man. Shopping at the Bay for tights to wear under my skirts this winter was terrible. Thankfully, another customer there too was willing to talk to me and help me understand what size I needed.

So now my wardrobe is two skirts, a short sleeve tops and a short sleeve blouse that I just bought, three tank tops with lace on them, this pretty cardigan/jacket thing with lace on, and a collection of blouses that I've been bringing home from the sharing table at church for a few years now. I think I have... six? of those. Somewhere around that many. My late grandma would be amused at me again and once more say that a real woman has a curtain bar that's bent from the weight of the clothes.

...since when? *confused* And why does having so many clothes equate to being a "real" woman?

I'm wondering just like Den. XD My closet has all my tops and some pants/skirts/jackets hanging up there and I still have room to hang things. I do have a double closet though. ^^;
