MMmmm....

I should probably start updating the music of the moment now that I can. Coming soon: Scott gets around to it.
Does anybody read between the lines?
Guess what everybody, I checked out my Laptops battery number online and it is NOT on recall. I guess I got a good one, Whahoo! I am getting closer to my goal of switching my location residence here at college. If I keep this up I should be able to move in right after Labor day to the hall of my choice, which has a community of Pre-Architects like me. (smile with lots of teeth showing)

What else... what else...? Ummm...

Oh my wheels on my skates are shot. Good advice to people out there who use skates. You should not wait to switch the wheels like I did. You see, the wheels, being rubber, where out rather quickly on cement especially rough campus side walks. And because of the way you skate, by pushing side to side, the inside of the wheels develop an absence of rubber, and begin to form a sort of triangular profile. Well actually if you look at the whole wheel from the front or back and not the side, it looks like a trapezoid. To even it out you need to switch the wheels. In my case, I apparently waited too long. I used them after switching them this morning and I was thinking:
Well with only that little point of a spot for the wheel to rest on while I skate it will probably where out pretty fast and become evened out pretty fast.
I was wrong because, I checked to see how they were doing after I only skated 8 blocks, and chunks of the rubber wheel were missing like they had been torn off. It completely ruined the wheels and because of the fact that there wasn't much left of them, they were scuffing every time I leaned my skate slightly to the outside. Scuffing the casing that holds the wheels on. Yea...
Check this part out next post!
And... what else is new? I picked up a flyer from U.S. bank. What could it hurt to put some money in another well known National Bank? Well I am thinking about it, but it probably won't happen. I was only considering the convenience and possibilities.

Speaking of which, I bought a subscription to a magazine on the same baisis and I'm now pretty sure that was the stupidest impulse buy I've ever made. I got Car and Driver. Not that I won't enjoy it, just that I don't see the need to have a magazine. In all my years of living at home, not once did my family ever have a subscription to a magazine or even a newspaper. So I guess, not only do I not see the need, but I don't even see a good reason to want one. I was only thinking about it recently, like a daydream. Then some girl showed up trying to raise money to go visit Rome, and for some stupid reason, I bought into it and got a subscription.


On second thought, my family did have one thing that we got in the mail... a FREE catalog from Dell, in which I was searching for my new computer. We don't get that anymore though, because... I have a computer! Hooray for my new computer. It's only one month old.
That's about it.
