Hardwarely updated :D
Aug. 4th, 2006 08:54 pmAt long last, I stopped procrastinating on it and I bought a microphone! (I can see
doranwen doing a little dance there *g*) Also installed Skype :)) If you want to talk to me sometime, my username is annabtg.
Also bought a Bluetooth USB Dongle, to be able to connect my mobile phone to my laptop, and a bag so that I can actually take my laptop with me in a computer bag like a normal person (I used to carry it around in a box. *headdesk*).
Only the phone filters left to buy. Yeah, I forgot to mention - I found out that the reason my DSL connection momentarily stops working when we pick up the phone is that we haven't plugged filters to the phones. Honestly, though, shouldn't someone have told us we need to use filters? How were we supposed to know? And that guy who sold us the DSL kit said 'everything was included'. Yeah, right.
(Of course, I've known that we need to buy filters since June, and it's August. Me, procrastinate? Nah!)
Next on the shopping list: Go buy some shirts and a new pair of shoes BEFORE THE SALES PERIOD IS OVER, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD.
Yeah. Will do that. On Monday. I promise.
See ya,
Anna.

What kind of box are we talking about for your laptop? Like a cardboard box?

Yes, a carboard box. From our electronic scales *cringes* It said Tefal on the front. I bet people thought I was obsessive with my weight...
See ya,
Anna.

You're kidding. *laughs very loudly* Oh my, that is a bit... strange. "Oh, yes, this is the scale I carry with me everywhere!"

See ya,
Anna.

Date: 2006-08-07 12:10 am (UTC)BUT HUZZAH ABOUT THE MICROPHONE! Even though I already know this because Allie said you had a gorgeous accent and she had her first voice chat with you... but let's pretend I don't know this.
Monday is tomorrow! Or today, for you, you crazy staying-up-late gal. :P Honestly, Anna, I've no idea how you stay up past eleven without being all p2hpozsih;oaij'wj'pj'pn.
Shirts!
... huzzah! For shirts!
