Nothing! lol. But, I'm trying to decide if I should pull the trigger on a new laptop. I'm getting a tax refund and I'm really torn on whether I should hoard that money or use it to buy something I KNOW I'm going to need sometime in the near future. My laptop has been on the fritz for months, it overheats and shuts down regularly and I can't play even a 2 minute video on it. Earlier today it overheated when I was just doing regular GBCN/web browsing.

How do you know when it's really time to replace it? When it won't turn on at all? The laptop I'm probably going to replace it with is $229.

I'm not really afraid I'm going to go blow my tax refund, but I am afraid I'll piss it away as extra spending money and then won't have it anymore when my laptop ACTUALLY craps out. I could set it aside, but if I'm going to do that why not just buy the laptop now? It would be nice to be able to watch videos and use it for streaming....

What computer are you thinking of buying?

I think I'm going to go with this one. From reading the reviews, it seems to be able to do everything I want to do (basically, internet browsing, MS Office, and streaming). I have an external hard drive with tons of space so I'm not concerned about storage.

I *think* we decided on a mattress. I hope. I like that it's made in the USA, and the sale brings it into our price range.

Forgot that I also bought some jewelry at a friend's jewelry party. DH said to keep my purchase under $100 total (or less if possible)... spent $98. At least I listen!
