Can you start a thread to review it? I'd like to hear how it works out for you.

Wow. Got "the box" and did my complete tax return, including e-filing it, in half an hour. Soooo much easier than doing it by hand like I have been doing it's not funny.

And I even got a refund this year--first time in years and years. Only $150, but still!

I think this line's mostly filler.

I'll try. Work has been interfering with my Cellar time, though.

Nothing in particular...just feel good right now. I had a productive weekend, but still made time to relax. Later in the week, I'm going to buy a bass guitar, and hopefully Sycamore (the band) will have some music up on MySpace in the next month or two.

(Shameless plug: If you have MySpace, please friend the band. )

LOL! Should have let her culture sourdough starter--at yeast you could make bread from that.

RUSH is on the radio.

I had to hand a project proposal in on Friday last. It's worth 30% of the module's final mark. I have never done a project proposal before...hell I never even plan essays I just hold it all in my head and write off the cuff from the notes I've taken, with the essay or research project kind of taking shape around me...found it really hard to plan in advance what the project was and where it was going to go. Anyway...I also had a second assignment to hand in on Friday and had spent about a day and a half of available time doing that (an article review) which was much easier...and only worth 5% of that module's final mark.

Got to Thursday last week, having had evening meetings every night that week and was really struggling with the proposal. Could really have done with some extra time on it...then discovered I'd got the dates wrong on the article review, wasn't in til friday after...could have had the extra day and a half to use on the really difficult and more important proposal! Threw an all nighter and just about managed to get it in under the door of the 12:00 deadline....

I wasn't at all happy with it. Was really worried I'd dragged my overall mark down with it in a module that I really want to do well in...

Got my mark today *does the happy dance* A High First All that worryin' for nowt! Now all I gots to do is pull the project itself together into a wiki site.......

Tomorrow we're going to look at a property a couple of hours north. I hope it's as good as it looks in the pics.

I just found a baby monitor that can do multiple rooms (i.e., multiple kids) on a single receiver! And, unlike every other monitor we've tried so far, it doesn't have constant interference inside our house.

Well...the computer didn't work that I was given. That was pretty disappointing, but


Today I'm buying myself a computer!!! A new one! I have never had a new computer or one that wasn't put together by random parts just to get on the internet (nice friends bless 'em).....

Ooooh a computer that isn't out-dated by 7 years just for me! Finally!YEAH!

I'm actually going to buy it right now. See ya!!!
Did I say woo-hoo? Well woo-hoo!
