Insert Angels singing AAhhh

I love my PC. My PC loves me. We will be together happily. I love my bmobile too. Me and my bmobile- there is nothing quite like us.

Holly West has the following specs:

- AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ Processor (2.3GHz)

- 4GB Corsair XMS DDR2 PC6400 RAM

- Nvidia Geforce 8500 GT Video Card

- (2) Samsung SATA 20X DVD-/+R Drives

- 500GB SATA Western Digital Hard Drive

-DFI Infinity NForce 570 AM2 Motherboard

Can you tell that I am quite pleased? I finally have a PC that plays all current games on high. I need a proper UPS and a 22″ HDCP compatible monitor- but I am so happy right now.

Vista Ultimate? Did I mention they rated me at 5?

Early Pics of a Diva

So the time has not yet been fulfilled for me to put together my new girl friend. She requires a decent amount of capital to be perfect and I am spending the overtime needed to make her into the most amazing diva of all time.

Her name is Holly West. If you know who Holly West is then you can’t judge me- you are just as bad.

Here are some pre-case and pre-PSU pics of my new girl. The perfect woman isn’t born…

Waiting for Godot

I have almost everything I need but somehow some personal issue arises to prolong my very important project.

I was about to buy my snazzy new PC case when a great sense of responsibility dawned on me. I found out that I needed to fix my roof. We have been having some shady weather lately and I didn’t want to have to set pans and sheets ever again. Sheets stink… and pans are annoying. Thankfully, 20k later, I don’t have to worry about that. It feels good to spend one something tangible and long lasting.

If I had spent that money on going out and having fun (like last month) then maybe the effect wouldn’t have been as lasting. It is the decision between spending money relaxing or spending money on something that can be seen as opposed to only remembered.

Just to update you here are the items I have:

Mother Board
Processor
Graphics Card
RAM (2GB)

Therefore I only need the PC Case to get started. I figure I am going to get Vista and SATA Hard Drive and call it quits after that. Why should I stick to XP when this PC can more than handle Vista Ultimate Edition (fully legit).

A Stitch in Time

So the Hurricane has come and gone. I still have my roof- minus several shingles and for the most part we are all dry. I lost electricity for a total of six days and almost lost my mind. I have now discovered that I am a slave to the light. I tried walking in Darkness but on the final day I couldn’t take it anymore. My lack of light (plus the random temperature changes and some allergens) made me quite sick. I have some flu/infection/something that only antibiotics can fix, and Allegra can relieve. I am forbidden to drink anything dairy or cold but atleast my Doctor gave me two days to stay home and recover.

While here I would like to reach level 50- but all the WOW servers are down for maintenance until 11am today.

In other news- I have put my PC building plans on hold yet again. All I need is the RAM and a Case with a PSU but I am holding out a little longer. I need to invest my money. I want to be in a different/stronger position in one year. I therefore will forego that bling system for another month or two. I will not give in to temptation just yet. Check this out- U$860 for a 50″ DLP HDTV. I should buy it now and worry about the consequences later. What I do to discourage myself from it is I remember that is how some people get AIDS.

In essence I am going to take it easy and continue plotting and scheming. One day I will have everything I really want.

Best Buy Fires Geek Squad Supervisor Following Negative Newspaper Articles

About Porn Pilfering. Best Buy is on the offense, launching an internal witch hunt to unmask the “rogue employees” responsible for exposing Geek Squad’s pervasive culture of porn pilfering. Their first victim is the Geek Squad supervisor of the Santa Clarita store, one of the only Best Buy locations whose former employees were quoted in articles.

Some people just have loose morals.

Newegg Made a Mistake

I have to take back a few nice things I said about Newegg.com earlier. They STILL don’t take my credit card. Probably I was lucky when I ordered the three items (mobo, cpu and vga) but I subsequently tried to get the 2gb memory stick and was barred. Seemingly I failed the verification process because my credit card was issued outside of the US.

How lucky. So now I have to find alternate means of getting the memory from Newegg.com- or find another website.

Way to go Newegg. I was here singing your praises and giving you free press and you just had to make me cry. Shame on you.
