Well it's just one of those nights where I'm sitting around listening to some soft quiet music. I don't want to go to bed because I don't want to start another week. It seems as though this is happening to me a lot lately. My weeks are so busy this semester that it just seems like I'm living in fast forward. I kind of like it because that means the closer I get to graduating college and moving away from here. I have also realized that it has been almost months since I have seen most of my good friends because we've all moved away to college and we just don't visit very often anymore. I'm growing up way to fast, heck I'm already almost 23! It seems like yesterday I was unable to go to the bars and drink alcohol legally. Well, enough rambling for one night, I'm sure you guys get sick of hearing it. G'night all!

Hey Netty. Very sorry to hear and I hope your remains comfortable and in good spirits. I wish you and your family all the best.
I can certainly relate to what you are going through as my wife and I have been battling her cancer for 11 years now. All I can say is that mind over matter does work.

I hope things get better for you Netty. Your family is in my thoughts.

On a lighter note, I just witnessed my best friend attempt to protect the dorms from apocalypse by spraying shaving gel on every door in the building. Quite amusing.

Roads are ICY TODAY!!!!!
My mother, father, and 2 neighbors all slid off of the road we live on today, it's a really steep hill which is lopsided, and we all have cars so that doesn't help...but the way that the hazard lights looked on 4 cars in the dark was REALLY cool.
until then, everyone will be backing up a ways, then flooring it just to get up the hill :p

And to think, everyone thought the dodge neon, cavalier, ford taurus, and dodge shadow were ALL TERRAIN vehicles ;D lol jk.

Well I finally returned that Crapson. I bought a Brother. Hate it!!!!!! Hard to use, ABYSMAL print quality.

I'm going to return it after my trip to Mexico.

I'm trying to decide between 2 printers: the Canon MX300 and the Canon MP210. What I'm looking for:

GREAT print quality
Passable copy/scan quality
Reasonably fast speed

They both have reasonable ink prices, not an issue for me, but what one should I get? Which do you think has better quality?

I finally bought new shoes for the first time in 5 years. I bought 2 pairs.
I'm surprised my old pairs lasted this long.

I'm in the market for some SHOX (or an alternative), but they're all over $100 bucks! Shoot I'm used to paying $40-$60 for shoes. Does anybody know for some good nike cross-training/running shoes in between $60 and $100 bucks?
