I went to Best Buy with my sister and father. My sister bought a camera, and I looked at netbooks but both of the ones I liked were sold out. The store was nowhere near as full as I expected -- the parking lot for that shopping center had a whole bunch of empty spaces.

I'm a waffler too, Steph. I want an iTouch bad, but it's hard for me to justify right now. I don't need it--really, does anyone need an iTouch?--but I want it.

Do eeeet, Steph! (And Burrell!)

I just got back from a craft sale. Bought fudge,a handmade wooden spoon and petite little french rolling pin, and a beeswax candle. All for me. (So goes my Xmas shopping.) I also had a red velvet cupcake, the first red velvet anything I have ever had.

But see... if we are talking desired electronics, a GPS is more useful than an iTouch, and a Wii for the family would provide more entertainment value. And there's no way we are going to buy all 3 of them this season.

I am back! I did a lot of shopping, though only a small portion was actual Black Friday shopping; there was a fair bit of "Well, I'm out of the house, let's buy stuff."

My Black Friday victory? Western Digital 1 TB external hard drive for $60 from Target. I called the Target closest to me a little after 9, and they were all out, so I called the next closest, and they wouldn't answer, so I called the next one, and they had two left, so I drove up there as fast as I could and snagged the very last one. Minutes later, a guy came by looking for one to exchange for his, which was defective, but I had just taken his prize. I hope it's not defective.

I need drive rails, but even though I was nearby there was no way I was going to Fry's today. Maybe tomorrow.

I have sneezed three times today. If I have caught my co-worker's ick I'm going to be pissed. He got really miserable.

That's exactly it.

Grumble. I'm such a waffler.

So Terrence Howard is apologizing to ex-girlfriends on account of having daughters causing him see women in a different light. [link]

Maybe his fixation on baby wipes makes more sense now?

Camels terrorize Australian outback town

Yep, it's true. More like giant rabbits than giant cane toads. Our local ecosystems continue to be devastated by introduced species. However, be warned, rest of the world: in 'pay it forward' fashion, we have exported redback spiders to Japan and they're marching on Tokyo. [link]

I don't know, Terrence. This?

I didn't know how precious they were. I know better now.

Not really helping.
