I got my new keyboard over the weekend. No, it wasn't replaced by Best Buy. I had to go ahead and purchase it on my own. I wasn't getting anywhere with their Customer Disservice. It's a pretty nice one. It came with a mouse also and even though I wasn't having issues with my other mouse, I switched out anyway. It conforms more to the shape of my hand. One nice feature it has is there's a button where your thumb rests that you can push and a little magnifier pops up and you can see things better. You can also go back a page (Or however many) with the push of ANOTHER button. The keyboard itself is curved so it helps with the natural position of the hands. It's not an ergonomic keyboard in the sense that it has hills or anything like my aunt's does, but it's a bit more comfortable.
I also bought a copy of Phantom of the Opera that's better than the one I have. The other one was pan-and-scan (which I dislike) and didn't have any features because it came packaged with other movies, so no frills. Me, I like the frills when it comes to my DVD's. I got the Flashback edition of Sixteen Candles also. One of my fave 80's teen movies. I also picked up the special edition of Gigi. LOVE that movie to pieces! I got a cool game for my DS which has UNO, Skip-Bo (which I used to play with my grandma all the time) and UNO Free Fall.
Then mom and I stopped by the bookstore. Big mistake. I got a few comics (Buffy Season 8 and the latest Legacy), the new volume of Shonen Jump, a SDK vol. 32 (I think we only have a few more volumes left in the series). I bought a romance written by the author of the Princess Diaries series. It was written ostensibly by the main character of that series and I heard it was pretty good, although the few excerpts I read of it tend to lean toward the smutty side! But, the proceeds go to Greenpeace, so that was a good purchase.
I bought the autobio that Kat von D wrote, who's the star of the TLC series LA Ink which I love to watch. I also picked up the Watchmen film companion. Pretty cool! Needless to say, I cleaned out my wallet...
Later on Saturday night, a few of us gals went to Chili's for a few drinks to celebrate Singles Awareness Day (better known to most people as Valentine's Day). Although the one who organized this whole affair came down with a stomach bug and wasn't able to make it! She was pretty disappointed because out of all of us, she was the one looking forward to it the most. We still had a pretty good time though.
I was able to figure out how to burn some of the stuff I recorded off of my hard drive. I mean, I could just burn them straight onto a DVD, but I wanted to cut out the commercials and divide them into chapters and whatnot. So I started with the final Avatar episode. I've yet to watch the finished product. Maybe if I burn enough of them off, I can free up more of my hard drive because it's getting rather full.
*looks up* Wow. I guess I typed a lot. Well, time to sign off I suppose. Cheerio everyone!
