Well, Hell

I'm looking at desktop computers because they're cheaper, and I'll need some sort of decent computer for school in the fall. (One class is covering PHP, so I'm wondering if I'll need to install MySQL.) I don't really need a laptop because I use my netbook on trips (and, in fact, I'm using it now). I could get a decent refurbished desktop computer plus monitor for around $150. Good to know. Hmm, someone is selling a used Lenovo laptop (and those things last a long time) in Springfield for $100.

 

Zara had to check out what I was eating for breakfast. I said, "Okay, Zara, sniff my grits." Then I decided that sounded rude :)

 

I went to the coffee shop to set up my price book and read, only to find that the coffee shop had closed, and there's a new coffee shop there that's open more limited hours. Damn. 

 

I set up the price book, and wrote down prices at Walmart and Kroger. I'm feeling pleased with myself. However, someone backed into me in the Walmart parking lot. I initially didn't see much damage, so I said that it was okay, but then later saw some paint flaking off. That was a bad financial decision on my part.

 

Mint

Spent late tonight signing up for Mint, so that I can keep better track of where my money goes. It was going well until my TIAA (retirement investments) account hung up my system. I think that I'll pick it up again tomorrow.
