Another long update waiting to happen.

But for now I'm just going to restate an issue that has come up again...

I NEED A LAPTOP!

oh and one more thing... my spending spree has got to stop!
I have modes where I spend a bunch of money all the time and modes where I'll notice I haven't bought anything in forever. I've definately been in spending mode since I went to NY, it's bad. It's to the point where I didn't even flinch when I had to pay a 35 cent ATM card transaction fee on a $2 bottle of water. This needs to stop. At this point I'm surprised I haven't just bought a laptop!

the end.
for now.
