My Computer Is Slow

It appears that my computer needs to be reformated once again. I really hate it when that happens. I'm going to try uninstalling stuff that insist on running when I turn the computer on first and see if that helps as well as defragmenting (again). I want to try everything I can to avoid reformating. Everytime I get on EverQuest it takes forever to log in then once I get on it disconnects then I have to wait another 15-20 min before it lets me back on again. Last night I totally missed the raid because of it. It just kept freezing. I think it might be Yahoo Widgets that is doing it to me though. So I'm going to just make it so it doesn't start with Windows. Hopefully that will help. I do like the widgets though because of the TV Guide and Coke Rewards feature. Those 2 are really the only widgets I need. It makes it so much easier to enter my coke rewards and to view the tv guide without having to load the website and wait forever for it to load.

Games For PSP

We went to the mall today to pay for Chips Sears card and he decided he was going to buy me a game. I kept refusing but we ended up going to the Game Stop and buying a game but we came home and I played it and it was so lame. We are going to return it tomorrow. I've been looking for a game that is similar to Tetris that we can play on the PSP but there are none. Or are there? I found on Amazon.com a game called "Sega Genesis Collection" and it has 28 Sega Genesis games including Sonic the Hedgehog and Columns which is what I had when I had the Sega Game Gear. Columns is Segas version of Tetris which is a little different but it works. The other 26 games sound cool, I've never played them so it will give me a chance to see what they were like. It's cool that there are 28 games on 1 UMD so I don't have to keep switching the UMD's. It's gonna be awesome. And Chip will finally have a game that he can play. He doesn't get into all the games but when I got my Game Boy 14 years ago he loved playing Tetris.

Lost ATM Card

Ugh I lost my atm card today. We went to a town near Lake Isabella to pick up a clock that needed to be repaired then we went to lake isabella and it must have fallen out of my coat pocket. I am very frustrated at this.

Chip Was Robbed At Gun Point

Tonight Chip had to go to the ATM machine across the street to deposit $110 so he could pay his credit card bill when that cleared and when he got there he grabbed his sears card instead of his debit card so he had to walk back home. This guy was sitting on the brick wall across the street from the ATM machine watching him and saw Chip go across the street and turn onto 3rd street and waited until Chip got up to the front door then robbed him. He held the "gun" up to his neck and said this is a robbery give me all your money. Well Chip had the $110 ($100 dollar bill and 2 $5's) and handed it to the guy and the guy started digging into his pockets. Luckily he didn't find the rest of the money, he was in too much of a hurry so he took off. Chip isn't quite sure if it was a gun or if it was the guys finger but when you are in this situation there isn't time to think. He could've taken the keys and the car or possibly come into the house and robbed both of us.

Bye Bye Guestbook

Well I retired the guestbook permanently. Nobody signs it except for spammers. So it's gone for good. It would've been nice if my friends had signed it instead. I don't know why people go through the trouble of visiting my website just to find a form to spam it.

My Laptop

My laptop has been driving me nuts cause its so slow when it loads. Last night I made a backup of the hard drive onto an external drive so this morning I can reformat but the dvd drive wont read the windows cd so I just decided to just clean it up which is what I shouldve done in the first place. The hard drive only had 7% free space and now it has 32%.
