The case for Brannagh came in yesterday. I was pretty excited to see it and poke around in it. There&#039s absolutely nothing in it besides cords and screws, so we&#039ll have to install the motherboard, power supply, DVD rom, CD-R rom, 3 1/2 floppy drive, sound card, video card, ethernet car, fans… Uh, I think that&#039s about it. I say &#034we&#039ll&#034 have to install it as though I will be doing much of anything at all. I think that the brunt of the installation process will be left up to the husband who has fortunately done this before. The ram came in today according to the reports I got from Ian earlier. I got an e-mail earlier as well saying that the motherboard/CPU are being delivered. Soon my master plans will come to fruition and I will have the almighty awesome computer I so desire! Mwahahaha!

But before that, there&#039s a lot of other stuff going on tonight. Sarah and Jessica are coming over to enjoy Ian&#039s beef stew and bread bowls after their class, then the three of us (Ian has declined going) are heading for a sort of shopping spree to help me work on my business wardrobe to help me look less stupid at the office. At least those two have a clue. I&#039m fully prepared to hate half (if not more) of the stuff we see because I can&#039t stand pussy pastels or clothes that look cute but are uncomfortable as hell. Add to this the fact that I&#039m no petite beauty and you get a cranky, chubby nerd who&#039s going to look goofy one way or another. We&#039ll see how it all turns out. I&#039ll have to try to remember to update on it later. For right now, I have a stack of papers to grade as well as lesson plans to write for tomorrow&#039s class. Busy busy!
