Remeber when we were such fools and so convinced and just too cool?

BAH HA HA HA HA HA... Nature's dominoes. I want a few nature's dominoes, they would be so fun to play with! I really love Dinosaur Comics, but who doesn't? (don't answer that, if there is someone who doesn't like them, I don't want to know.) This is pretty much what I get paid to do; read dinosaur comics. I think I am actually getting paid to wait around until my boss finds something he wants me to do, and then do it. My life is thrilling, you have no idea.

Speaking of comics, my roommate is hilarious. She writes all these comics while she is at work and posts them on her blog. My favorite so far is when she is asking Utah for advice. Who is Utah's mom? I think that is the question we would all like to know the answer to.

So, on to my life...

I have some good news and some bad news. Good news is, I am leaving for Chicago in 11 DAYS!!! I am SO excited! I have never been to Chicago, or anywhere close. Then it is back to school! I can't wait for school. Not only will I get to live with incredible roommates but I also get to start taking classes for my new major! All this exciting stuff is coming up, but I still have TONS to do before I can leave. I have to pack up my old room, pack for BYU and pack for Chicago. I also have lots of projects i am trying to finish before I leave for school again.

The bad news is that my computer is DEAD. Well, not really dead just severely handicapped. The part on the computer that you plug the cord into is broken which means I have a really hard time getting my computer to charge. Since it is the part inside the computer instead of the cord, it is a non serviceable part which means to fix it I simply have to replace the mother board. Yeah, that totally sucks. Since replacing the mother board costs only a little less then buying a new computer, it looks like I will be buying a new computer. I am pretty excited to get a new computer, but it is quite a bit of a hassle. Although, since I am no longer a Computer engineering major, I don't think I will want a Linux/Windows dual boot, so I won't have to worry about getting that set-up.

I did have fun a few nights ago taking apart my computer. I knew which part had to be fixed, and it could have been a simple soldering problem. Since I have friends who have soldering guns, this COULD have been a quick solution to my problem. So, I found the instructions online, and a few friends and I took apart my laptop. It was crazy! The most exciting part was that we got it all back together and it still works (ish. It works besides it's charging handicap.)

Now, that I have fully exposed my nerd capabilities, I think I will go read some more dinosaur comics. Tune in next time when I discuss the pros and cons of different Rubik's cube solutions. (Actually, I don't think I could hold that discussion, I only know how to solve it one way.)
