Song of Choice: Cant think of one off the top of my head... too sleepy

Well, for those of you who have been talkin' to me (and following my msn names) I've been out to upgrade my computer for the last little while.. well, now I have! I went from an AMD Duron 1Ghz to an AMD Athlon XP 2500+..

ok, lil too much for you to take? For all of you pentium people out there who are clueless, AMD is their biggest competitor among other chip makers... the Athlon XP 2500+ is only 1.8Ghz, but runs like a 2.5Ghz Pentium... (one of the many reasons AMD is SO much better).. Well, that and price... and how they deal with instruction sets... but I wont bore you with the details of RISC and CISC.. lets just say that AMD chips are more efficient..

anyway, I'd love to post some comparison graphs... so lets see... nope, too tired...

Anyway, I'm loving my new, faster, QUIETER beast that lays before me... It really is my frankenstein.. I love just every once in a while buying something new and replacing a part, making the computer better as a whole one piece at a time.

Anyway, Friday night...

Beth and I were invited to join christa, james, chris, and erin for dinner. It was nice of chris to invite beth... I never did completely thank him for that.. But anyway, we showed up late to dinner (As usual)... an hour late.. But I still swear it wasn't my fault! I would have been on time (if not 5ish minutes late) if it wasn't for traffic.... But I'll tell you, it's asking a lot of someone to drive from mississauga, to etobicoke, to oakville on a friday afternoon/evening and expect them to be on time. lol I left the house at 4:30, got the car washed and picked beth up... we were on the road at 5:50 and made it to the restaurant shortly after 7... After making an executive decision not to take the highways and have a chance to be caught, we took city streets...

...I still hold that it wasn't my fault :p

Anyway, dinner was fantastic.. Food was great (go Outback! I haven't had a steak that good in weeks... stupid humber food)... it was MUCH better than my peanut butter and water diet...

pb&w??
yup..

I ran out of money on my meal card.. and I dont have any real money to eat with.. so I'm left mooching off of people who have too much food in their rooms/ money on their meal cards.. they really are great for letting me do that, otherwise I'd go hungry.. I dont like it, and I vow I'll pay them back.. but either way, they're good to let me mooch..

I've been taking pills lately to help give me more energy and.....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

*wakes up an hour later* they seem to be working... my legs dont feel as heavy anymore, and I actually want to do things.. so maybe it's a good sign of things to come.. I'll keep you posted..

in the mean time, I've gotta boogie to sleep, just thought I'd do some useless rambling before I did... I'll update for real some time... really I will... when the urge strikes me.. but nothing really profound has struck my path lately...

until next time.......
*fade to black*
