I helped my room-mate buy a new computer this weekend. I had suggested a desktop – since he needs it for work and almost never travels – but he had his eye on a laptop. A very shiny one. I finally gave up and shifted my function from “real practical advice” to “explanation of terminology”<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
The set up went fairly well – though I was surprised to find there wasn’t any office products on there. Just a 60-day trial and then purchase. So, I set him up with Open Office. He had one eye on the football game while I was explaining it to him, so we’ll see how that goes.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I went to a party over the weekend – my boss’s wife and sister both turned 50 so there was a combined party for them. The food was good, the music was good but way too loud, and the only people I knew there were those that I worked with. I stayed for a bit, did quite a bit of folding, then headed out.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Watched a couple of movies over the weekend – Midnight Movie and The Unborn. Maybe I’ve seen too many movies, but these were both pretty predictable. There were a couple of “jump out at you” moments, but pretty tame.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I picked up a few more elements for my costume this weekend – still got quite a bit of work to do. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Guess that’s it for now – later…<\/div>\n
