a_qIt's my birthday!
It has been a fun day, my mother was here and we had a great day eating cake and talking. It was fun! I got some lovely roses, and bubbly juice drink that was delicious! Rather fancy birthday, if I say so myself :)
...Except my computer has been acting up for the last month, and now it started to really break down - it still works, but I don't know if it will wake up tomorrow. :( So, I made a decision and ordered a new computer, right now. I found an excellent deal on a pretty decent looking basic computer and I've been saving money for just this reason, so I just went ahead and did it.
Of course now I'm freaking out for making such a quick decision on this - maybe I should've hang on, look for other deals, read reviews, whatever needed to make a good decision instead a fast one? Except, I need a new one, and if the computer I ordered is complete crap, I can send it back (there's a 30 day return policy, I checked). Still, big purchase freak-out!
But excellent timing - my mother gave me a tablet as a birthday present, so even if my computer dies right now, I can still get to internet until the new computer arrives (hopefully Monday?)
Right now I'm backing up everything, so if this computer goes belly up, I hopefully won't loose anything important.
Fingers crossed!
