Rainy and it will rain again this week. Pretty quiet weekend. Did finally manage to watch Blood Diamond today and while it was good, it’s not a movie I plan to watch again. I saw The Pursuit Of Happyness 2 weeks ago I think and I really liked it and hope to see it again.

Didn’t do enough work this weekend. My laptop seemingly has died. This is the 2nd Dell laptop that died right after the 3-year warranty ran out. First I got these blue screens, and when that happens, all USB peripherals stop working and I have to use the other USB ports. Then the battery was wearing down but the laptop is plugged in 24/7. After 20 minutes of use, it said I began with over an hour and then it was red and dead. Turned it on today and low battery would not let it come on.

Fortunately I bought another laptop in October so plugged it in, and the battery was dead, but let it run for a few hours to charge. I loaded most of the software on it so far but tomorrow hope to finish that up, then back everything up. I’m not sure if I’ll send the laptop back to Dell for repair or just junk it. I hadn’t put in any new programs but did the recent Windows update, but doubt that killed it.

What’s odd is I bought the laptop to replace a new desktop since I planned on getting a new desk, but could not find the desk I wanted, so stuck the laptop in a closet. Last week I found the desk I wanted! My handyman will be coming in next month with a saw to break down my desk and put up shelves, but I’ll keep that desktop since it seems to be working just fine and now I need that laptop to replace the other one!

Got a weird email today, a response to a personal ad I placed about 3 years ago and forgot about. Most I placed were lost as I used an email address I don’t have any longer. Anyway, I go to the site and the guy is too far away, but I figure I’ll browse the men. I can’t believe I recognized a friend of mine there! I also saw a lot of the same guys I see on MySpace and AFF.

Still no nursing home beds available for dad so he’s still in the hospital. This is running my mom so ragged and it’s just really stressing me out.

Redoing one of my sites, don’t hurt me Summer! It was a site I took down after not updating it for a while, and tonight I realized I needed a specific type of site and didn’t want to register a new domain, so went through what I had hanging around and found the perfect site. So, I’ll work on it this week and hopefully it will launch next week.

My Red Sox are surely rocking this year! I can’t remember the last time we won so many from the Yankees. Of course, I can’t believe the Pats picked up that Moss kid as he’s more trouble than he’s worth I think. New England fans never forgive bad behavior.
