blog hopping

alright alright alright

I know it looks like I'm very non-commital. Those of you who have followed my blogging career over the past two years might have some doubts. I realize this is my third blog spot in that amount of time... and there is nothing against xanga or livejournal... it is just that I needed a change of pace. A change of scenery. A new look. Sometimes you just want something new. And I thought a new blog page might be a bit better than say, a new car that I can't afford. Alright alright... I'm beginning to justify something that doesn't need justifying.

And so begins my new blog - welcome! Enjoy the ramblings and randomness that is my life. Glad you could stop by. Sit and stay as long as you like. Post responses - I love feedback. And thus I will commence with a few random thoughts:

1. If you own a laptop computer... I strongly suggest that you never sit it on the armrest of your sofa or any other place where it could be perceived as being in a precarious position. I say this because theoretically it could fall off. And theoretically it could wind up with a crack in the LCD. And theoretically it could cost $400 to fix. Yes... $400 and a few weeks in the shop. In Michigan.

2. If you enjoy scary movies or if you like thinking about the "unknown", I suggest you spend your hard earned dough and get "Lost" Season 1 on DVD. Though I liked the show when it aired on TV, there is something much better about seeing several episodes in a row with surround sound and no commercials. Seriously - it is like they created a movie that is 20 hours long. JJ Abrams and crew did it again. AND if you enjoy DVD extras - this set has at least 6 hours worth of behind the scenes stuff. Really good. (Though "Alias" will always be my first love.)

3. I realized that I have officially become an adult when a few weeks ago I bought my very first piece of new furniture (with the help of Lanae - thanks!). And tomorrow I am going to purchase a washer and dryer. I have suddenly been thrown into adulthood at 26... so this is what it feels like!

I love the background! It feels new and fresh! I never write anymore on mine. I am SO sorry about the computer, with my curent anxiety mood that would have sent me into a bawlfest. I hoep I cna stop by your party tonight, it will be later. i hope it's fun for you gals.

Very good advice on the whole laptop computer thing. I suppose that can be said of a desktop pc also. It's probably not good to balance a tower on the edge of an armrest either.

And YAY LOST!!!! I think I only missed one episode in the entire first season. I don't plan on buying the set on DVD, but hey, I wouldn't mind watching a few episodes with you at your awesome new place. I can't wait for the new season to start! Should be good.

And adulthood, is it all that it's cracked up to be? Sounds scary to me. Lol...

Take care,
Lanae

P.S. I THINK YOU'RE SWELL!!!
