(no subject)
OMG I just bought a laptop and I think I'm going to have a panic attack because I am really excited but also really freaked out at having spent so much money all at once. This is more money than I have ever spent. Hell, it's more money than I'd had in the bank (between both checking and savings) for most of my life until recently.
I confess I gave in and allowed myself to splurge at least a little on a quality machine that will hopefully last a little while. Alas, I did not, however, go for the super awesome fingerprint reader. Even though I really wanted to.

I keep envisioning horrible outcomes. The best thing is probably to forget I ordered it until it arrives and then I'll be too distracted by the shiny to care.
GAH!
On a random note. It's been so long, I actually forgot the exact syntax for an lj-cut. Had to look it up to make sure it was right.
