I took the money I got from Hubby's car and put it towards a major tune up and oil change on my Jeep. New plugs, ignition wires, distributor cap, plus a tune up of the fuel system. 3 hours, $500. I could hear Hubby mumbling "I could have done all that," but he often said that, and things never got done, and while I've got the money I'm having professionals do the job right.
It runs much smoother now. Which is just as well, as snow is happening.
Y'all are making me want to change mine up (from its current, factory-installed name).
In my apartment building, the most interesting ones are NSA SURVEILLANCE, blubberbrix, The_Chaunce, thetransient and ImOnTheInternet. Everything else is names or factory names.
I wanna name mine The Bronze, but I have to hook up the ethernet cable to do it, which means finding the ethernet cable. Blech.
shrift, if I remember correctly, Lion's Club does glasses recycling.
Thanks! I actually found a list of places where they have drop boxes on their website earlier, so I'm going to try that.
Hi Wi-Fi Vo
Hah! I had to read that out loud before I got it.
I tried to go to Best Buy to recycle stuff on my way to meet a fellow fan for drinks, but I totally forgot about the Festival of Lights (it shut down Michigan Ave), so that didn't happen. I'm now erasing data from my ancient iBook G4 so I can make another attempt tomorrow on my way to brunch.
I did not manage to donate my books or my electronics. But I figure I am home for THREE WHOLE WEEKS in December (!!), and will have plenty of time to purge before the new year.
I did manage to buy a new suitcase (hope it holds up), lightbulb, and other sundries. Now if I can just manage to pack tonight so I don't forget stuff for my trip....
My computers have always gotten names based on my old Star Wars fanfic, so the WiFi is Starfighter Command.
My friends who host Artemis nights every once in a while? "Bill Wi the Science Fi." LOVE.
Since I went to a friends Thanksgiving dinner yesterday, that means the most wonderful time of the year has officially arrived. That's right--it's now Leftover Pie for Breakfast season. Celebrate as your culture and/or religion allows.
