Hey!!!
Long time, no see, huh? Well, the home 'puter decided to take yet ANOTHER dive, and as Christmas is a mere 49 days away, it won't be getting fixed anytime soon, so I am once again relegated to using the computers at the Whitman Town Library once or twice a week. Don't get me wrong; the library has nice computers, state of the art, brand new Dell's, and I am most grateful for their presence. That being said, though, I do miss the ability to be able to jump online and babble at will. Hopefully the 'puter problem isn't too severe; if so, then I will have to get a new one, probably the WalMart HP-in-a-box special. At this point, I jsut want a damn computer that WORKS!!
Anyhoo, here are some randoms for ya( moreso for me), and I'll catch you on the Wednesday of next side of things!
~ there was an interesting article in the Emptyprise regarding the 'price wars' between Diamond Fuels and Prime in Whitman. One station owner I guess didn't want to think of the competition between the two stations as a price war, as if that has a bad connotation. I don't see it that way; hell, if it brings customers in, then call it a price war! Keep the consumer on the edge of their seat regarding what the price will be next, and let the publicity and word of mouth create even more business!(oh, by the by, the price of gas at both stations has gone back to $2.09 p/g, up from the unprecedented $1.95 that it was at for an oh-so -brief time a few days back.)
~ I got a dose of happy again today; thanks, Mike(!), and remember, Mike is a dork, but you aren't.
~ I have been trying to write in my journal again, as I am sans computer, and I am progressing along alright; it just feels weird to handwrite things out, and as my handwriting really bites, it is most times barely legible. But sticking to it, I am, with the hopes of filling up a blank book or two, and improving the handwriting, as well.
~ I am sooooooooooooo psyched for Christmas this year!! Can't quite put my finger on exactly why, but that is irrelevant; I am in the spirit, and can that be all that bad? I think not!

Chistmas is only 49 days away?
Oh cr*p!
I've not bought a single gift nor been in a Walmart or mall in months.
Still, like you, I am looking forward to Christmas. This one will be a 100% improvement over the last.
