What a week
That's for sure. It was quite a week. I hit the Mervyn's sale and bought $400 worth of stuff, the big item being a whole new bed set for our bed. My daughter wanted me to replace my "mom" jeans with jeans that are a little more in style so I have 3 more pairs of jeans. Then I had to do a jury duty call in thing. I called Friday, Monday and Wednesday (twice) before I had to appear on Thursday. I never got called into a jury, which is just as well since I had to be back to work on Tuesday.
I also needed a smog check on my old Bonneville. The "check engine" problem needed to be resolved first so after $150 bucks it was off. Unfortunately my car didn't pass the smog check anyway and it had to go back into the shop for more work, to the tune of $470. Finally on Friday morning I was able to get the car passed and I'm good to go. I'm buying a new car next year I hope so this is the last smog check on this 13 year old car.
And then my computer died. Somehow a virus got into it. I noticed that my AVG was disabled for some reason (my daughter had done some program removal) so I reloaded it but it was too little too late. First the plug ins failed, then I couldn't load Microsoft Word, and finally Windows wouldn't load. So I had to get a new computer. I didn't have enough money for anything other than the CPU and data recovery. I'll wait for the sales to possibly buy a new monitor.
So this little week cost me about $2000. Geesh.
