It's been a few days since the last entry. One reason for the time between entries is the Compaq Presario 4712 computer I work on now has video adapter problems. I think I have found an inexpesive solution. I ordered a 1 MB Jaton video card for $15.00 that will arrive at my work address around August 11th. I tried installing a hip new adapter from Best Buy on Friday night, but I think my system is just too old or something...I gave it my best shot and then thankfully Best Buy let me return it.
It's the weekend and I have been doing things with friends, which is another reason I haven't written till now.
Did you ever feel like part of you wants to lock the doors of your room and never venture back outside again? I think I would still order pizza & take out the trash and maybe once in a while sit out on the back step. Then there is another part of me that feels lonely - wishing for and wanting someone to be with.a lonely road


Did you get riled up over that story about the little Cuban boy who was being fought over by his family members? I did. I kept the picture from the times of he and his dad reunited.


In approximately 4 or 5 weeks I am taking a trip to the BEACH! I am really looking forward to being on the sand in the sun. Is my punctuation correct? I bet it's not. I wish I had paid more attention during sentence diagraming in school. I understand they don't teach that anymore - but it certainly helped me to make the most sense out of how a sentence is supposed to be put together. This is why I like poetic license - because according to poetic license you don't have to be grammatically correct - you only have to express yourself. Sometimes, that is a challenge don't ya think? In fact at times using the proper spelling & grammar is easier than expressing what it is you want to say.

For the moment I'll say good-bye. Thanks for logging in.
