I'm getting my computer tonight! Oh yeah! HP 1.3 celleron processor, 512 RAM, 60 GB Hard drive, DVD drive, CD-RW drive, 17 inch flat surface monitor, printer, 3 year service agreement, blank cds and floppies. All for a little over $1600 - and a $200 rebate. I forgot to ask if that was internet related, but it said mail in rebate. I'll have to look at the paperwork. I'm hoping it doesn't go through MSN or something. I tried getting it last night while I was out with Bryan, but I don't have a credit card, and its too much to charge on the debit. *grumble* And I think they use telecheck, which won't take my checks. Yeah, I know..I have horrible credit. So, today, on lunch, I get to go to the bank. Yippee.
The computer is more than I was expecting to pay, and more than I actually budgeted. I got a better deal than with Dell however, so it was worth the extra. I'll just have to do some creative financing..like, no costco trip, no little items of clothing that are needed/wanted. I'm determined to take that Tarot class though. I think I can squeek by for the week :) Also, tonight, trip down to Ikea for the desk. I'm not going to be able to get the chair, but its cheap enough that I can get it in a couple weeks. No biggie there. I think the desk will help out a lot with the comfort of my current chair (G)
After computer shopping, Bryan and I went to Outback for dinner. YUUMMM. It hit the spot - had desert and everything. Bryan and I chit chatted and caught up on things. I miss him when I don't get to see him. But, his overtime should be done soon. And things should get back to a fairly normal keel. I brought him home to the kitty - whom he promptly blessed with Sehkmet. *ahem* Oh joy....*smirk* And I know she's laughing at me right now. Heh.
