This week is less frustrating than I thought it would be. Dad's getting a little overattached to my search for a laptop--he finds a study relating to the various reliabilities of laptops and pushes for Asus despite it being a lot more expensive in the size/shape I want despite the relatively similar reliabilities of the brands. I think I've found my baby, though, I'll snoop about for the best price on it. Dad favors this one, but it's a little more expensive despite being a pretty color. I want it in my hands by the end of the week, ideally, or at least to have ordered it in the next few days, four days in Chicago without an internet port is not worth thinking about.

In money news I've sold a pair of my schoolbooks, so that's another about a hundred in my pocket. Earning money's a pleasant feeling, I'm a bit tired of feeling like Gumshoe every time I get my paycheck and if I don't do better by next week (one person is quitting, another just stopped showing up so that's voluntary termination, so fewer people is more hours for me) I may just up and ask for more.

Also Rath sends me things, like pretty diaphonous scarves with bells on the end. Of course, since it was my birthday present and it's now a blazingly hot June moving into a worse July I may not get to show it off as much as I'd like, but it's still very pretty and blue.
