Mother Goose & Best Buy

David and I went to another Mother Goose story time today at the library…and we had fun…and we’re starting a playgroup with some other people from there. 🙂

I am both happy and sad to announce that I got a new Palm Pilot today. It’s an m105, a replacement for my old IIIe, which sadly died sometime earlier this month. Best Buy was very nice about replacing it, as I had a 3-year warranty on the thing. It’s actually an upgrade for me because this Palm has 8MB of memory as opposed to the 2MB that the old one had. I’m happy about that, but sad about the screen size — it seems much much smaller. Oh well. I got a happy bright red faceplate cover while I was there (they were on sale — just the red ones ???). It’s very nice. I love the way the flip cover flips back like a notepad instead of just up like on the IIIe. Quite happy.

dododo…what else? Hmm… Nothing I can think of. I’m running away now because I’m starving. Bye!

I bought way too much

I bought way too much stuff yesterday, but I’m happy with all of it and Nick’s not a bit upset by my purchases, so I guess it’s happy. I’m not happy though. I don’t know why. Ok, maybe I do know why and I just don’t want to point it out. Yeah.

The kid downstairs is crying like a maniac outside our window. I wonder if he accidentally stumbled upon the sign his parents semi-buried there (the one that says not to let your pets do their business on that patch of lawn–the only patch of lawn that my downstairs neighbors ever take their pet to). That would be ironic.

Hmm. Now my own child is crying. Oh joy.

Chopper thingie

Dude, this chopper thingie really rocks. It’s one of those slidy things with a blade on one side (diagonally set) and the other side has a place for different shaped pieces to slide in, depending on what kind of cut you want. It took me 30 seconds to cut carrots, instead of the 5 solid minutes of work it would have taken me for horrible slices.

Alas, I did suffer one small problem: I sliced my thumb. Oh well.

All in the name of making inexpensive baby food.

Library-Bleh.

Bleh.

I finished the book I was reading tonight so I could return it to the library tomorrow. While I liked this book better than the first in the series in several ways, it was much whinier than the first. Too much of the “Oh, I love you, but we can never be together” kind of crap. Oh well.

Of course, I was all proud of myself because I thought I’d finished all my books from the library…but I’d forgotten that I had one more to go. *sigh* There’s no way I’ll finish it by tomorrow. I’ll take it back next week or something.

Ahh…time for me to go to bed.
