After trying to do anything on my Sony again and failing, I just sat down and ordered a new laptop. I’m getting a Toshiba this time and I went for $450 one, which less memory – since it is still a lot more memory than I ever use and I will spend $150 less than the other version I was looking at. And since computers now have a tendency to break so much faster, I feel good about that decision. I hate doing this – I really could have spent that money on something else. I also decided to spend $100, get a new LCD screen online and follow those YouTube videos that show how to replace your screen. That way maybe my Sony can get more use and I’ll have a backup laptop or something. I can’t risk just fixing it first; I do need a laptop now, especially since I need my Powerpoints and lecture material when I teach. And I don’t like being in front of the main house computer, on a chair. (I like to sit on the bed and use my laptop). I really, really hate this whole situation.. Anyway, this is my new laptop .
In the afternoon, I went for a walk and bought a few lottery tickets since the lottery is so ridiculously high right now. I obviously didn’t win, I just matched two numbers. But it is fun to be part of the craze sometimes.
