This week was a total failure for the list of goals. The only one that was accomplished was selling the Toshiba laptop, and we decided on another card to apply for. We didn’t apply for another card, we just decided on one. The events of early in the week seemed to put me off my game. I got off the pushup regimen, and running took a back seat too. Technology conspired to prevent me from getting the two computers ready, for no apparent reason.
But…the wierdest thing is that i still lost weight. Only 1.4 pounds, but i’m down at 228.4 pounds now. Don’t know how that happened, because i ate out too much for lunch this week (cos we didnt go grocery shopping), and i didnt run as much as i should have. But…at least it’s still a downward trend.
So…this week is going to be interesting. Melody is hosting a baby shower for one of her younger cousins, so the house has to be in pristine condition for that (Saturday). This means there will be a lot of cleaning and rearranging during the afternoons, but mostly i’ll be in charge of getting rid of the extra computers laying around. I currently have 3 laptops being wiped, and another desktop attempting to be installed with fedora to see if i can use it for a media center. For some reason ubuntu does not like my IBM desktop, and likes my wireless adapter even less. No harm…if it doesn’t work, i’ll just sell them all and buy another cheap small form-factor machine some time later.

how much are you selling the laptops for and what are the specs for them. Matt maybe getting mine fixed, but trying to decide what’s the best bet/least expensive option!
oh…you dont want these. They are from about 2003 or 2004, and won’t barely run anything except a low end version of linux. I recommend the Acer Aspire One (netbook) — i got one for Melody for her birthday last year, and she’s pretty happy with it. $299 i think.
