Today I was looking once again at buy.com and found the computer I was originally going to get, the hp pavilion dv9925 with a 17 inch screen and web cam. Instead I bought the 15 inch version because it was 600 dollars not 900 dollars and I love it but now of course buy.com has the 17 inch one for about 600 dollars. It’s exactly like the one I have, just bigger and better. I miss my numbers on the right side and it would be nice to have them back. I may one day get another laptop just so I have 2, one for home and one for travel, yes this is crazy I know. That would be me though and if I can get it on sale then it’s even better!

I’m finding I’m slowly turning into a computer geek who loves not only finding great deals online, like at buy.com, but I have even started takeing apart computers and trying to rebuild them. Thats the other thing I like about this bigger computer, it has more memory on it. At least now I know how to change and add memory to my laptop, I know it’s not that hard but just 3 years ago I would not have even thought of doing it myself. Knowing me I’ll probably find a great deal on memory at buy.com, after I upgrade it.

I am writing my frist post from my new laptop and wow does this take some getting use to. I’m sure I’ll be okay eventually, but getting use to using the keyboard is going to be fun. I like this one though and tomorrow I will be doing a review on it on savey spender. So check there if you want to know more about it. I will tell you it’s an hp and has a web cam with mic. so I may start doing a few video post soon as long as you all can stand looking at my mug.

So far I have watched a dvd on it while I was waiting for things to download, but it was differently worth the money I paid for it. I’d write more about it here but it’s been a long day and I’m tired.

I’m still waiting for my student loans to credit to my account. I’m hoping they do soon and that I can get my refund this week. The school has not bothered to tell us when we will be getting the refund since Friday is the 4th of July. I’m just hoping I don’t have to wait until August like I did last year. That would suck.

So anyway I’m trying to be good and not go crazy. It’s not working as my computer keeps reminding me why I need to get a new one. The worst part is after I get my money I still have to order the laptop online from Wal-Mart.com, because the laptop I want is not available in any store in my state. It’s only going to take a week to get here though, so it will be okay once I order it. It’s just waiting to see if I get that money that sucks.

I’m still trying to decide what laptop to get. I have a great hp picked out at walmart.com, but at the same time a friend of mine is trying to talk me into getting a dell. She said that upgrading the dell memory is cheep and easy, since I would have to upgrade it for what I will need it for, but I have heard some bad things about dell.

I don’t know I have an Hp now and I love it, it works great and only has problems because I got a bad video card when I upgraded it myself. Other then that it runs fine. I guess I have some thinking to do.

Next week I should be able to get my laptop and pay off my $900 cell phone bill. Nice huh, the great part about student loan refunds. The best part is it helps fix my credit along with helping me with school. See when I move I’m still going to be doing online classes, so I will need internet. I’m thinking of just getting a card though my cell phone carrier and going that way. Since I’ll need it when I’m on the go it will work better then trying to find a hot spot.

I’m excited and I hope to of course pay off a few other things, Right now though I have to pay my car insurance and the internet bill at my mom’s. So that takes up some income right now. But I should still be able to make good progress. Hopefully that house will still be available!

Last night was not fun. Our power was out again and I almost didn’t get paid for my audit yesterday. Luckily they called this morning after I left a message and took my information. I’m very happy and now the power is back, at least for now. We have more storms coming in later today and tomorrow so we will see.

I’m hoping next weekend is not as bad. I am going to the Michigan NASCAR race and I don’t want it to rain! Hopefully it won’t or at least it won’t be much rain. Right now it says it’s going to be sunny, but I won’t believe it until Sunday morning, even then you can never be sure. I’ve decided though that I really need to get a laptop and a wireless Internet card so that if the power goes out I can still be connected to the rest of the world.

For just over a year I had been looking at MP3 players and I have to say I am very happy with the one I bought. I can get radio stations, do voice recordings and more.

The downside is that I bought the mp3 player hoping that it would help me to lose weight. I was getting bored walking on a treadmill staring at the wall. Unfortunately it has not helped much and I still don’t want to get on the treadmill. I think it’s more that I don’t think I have the time it takes to really make a difference as I have to walk more then run. I’m not in shape enough to run. It takes longer to walk a half mile then run one. I can jog a little but even then I have to keep stopping.

Maybe one I get my laptop and can watch a movie or something it will be better. Who knows!
