work; shopping
Jan. 8th, 2007 06:23 pmWork was lame. Someone put in their two week notice and I'm annoyed because that really cuts the average intelligence down once he leaves. (Yeah, I'm talking to you.)
After work, I headed to Crossgates to see if I couldn't use up the FYE gift card I'd gotten for Christmas as well as the 10% off Best Buy coupon I'd gotten.
Well. After over half an hour putzing around FYE, I thought I picked up the proper combination of items: the Poison Ivy Hush figure (always wanted it), The Cutting Edge Special Edition (how did I not have this?), and three bags of candy. Yeah... I was $8 shy of spending the car din full because, apparently, the Hush figure was not $10.99 as marked, ut on sale for $3 XD So that meants I need to go back. Arrrgh.
At Best Buy, I picked up a copy of The Island... there wasn't really anything else I wanted.
Am home now and have.... erm... purchased sonic screwdrivers. Yes, plural. Because
punslingerr and
sweetwildandmad want one as well and we figured we'd save on shipping. They were $12.50 a piece beacuse the boxes are slightly damaged and not mint, but who cares? I'm totally cracking that baby open! Whilst at that site, I saw they had a little Ten figure, so I snagged one of those too. Woohoo!
I am a dork, and thus I use my shiny new specs!Tennant icon. Yes.
Now I'm off to eat dinner and watch Casanova.

Date: 2007-01-09 06:57 am (UTC)The first one, is the computer problem itself.
The second one, is that I'm being asked to fix it.
I'm hoping it will fix the 2nd problem, which is usually some kind of user error. Installing things that shouldn't have been installed, trying to run two or three firewalls at the same time, asking me for the 19th time "How do I attach a picture to this email?", etc...
