It's raining. And my street is flooded. So I can't go out and get boxes to pack my place up until the river that used to be my street dries up. I was also going to see if any of the stores around here sold 5.8 ghz phones. The 900 mhz phone I have is dying on me and the 2.4 ghz phone has too much static and can interfere with my wireless router.

Speaking of my router, it seems that the reason it doesn't work anymore could be because my neighbor created a wireless network and it's interfering with my network. Seems lame that is super router can have such a pathetic problem. The Belkin folks are sending me a new router anyway...someday. I haven't heard anything yet. I'm going to read now.

Today I went to the other apple computer reseller and that guy said that it might be possible to just replace the frame so I'm heading out to show him my baby in hopes that the cost for repair is lower. But the best news is that the grocery store remodel is complete and it's beautiful. I almost cried. Then I starting having issues at the bakery when I had to decide between the fresh baked olive loaf vs the garlic loaf. I went garlic this time. So much for a low carb diet since I plan on eating bread for the next few days so I can then go back and buy the olive loaf. If I were alone, I think I would have allowed my self to drool. It was too much! I'm eating some of the bread now. I have to go get some good garlic to roast. I don't care if I'll stick like garlic...it's garlic fest time in my world!

Sad news...my classmate, John Berberian was killed yesterday in a car accident. He had matched in a kick ass neurosurgery program and was the funniest and nicest guys I've ever met. Our class must be cursed since we have had 2 deaths (andy and john), 5 other people had to leave for other medical reasons (2 are in the class of 2006 now), several had identity theft problems...Now I need to get something to protect myself I guess!

In the meantime, I'm going to eat more bread and take my computer in. I wonder if whole foods has opened yet? I want to get the morningstar lentil loaf and sav a center doesn't carry it. ooooh and whole foods has the olive bar with unlimited samples!

Well, I found a house in Portland and bought it...okay so technically, my parents will be paying for part of it and it won't be mine until we close in june but you get the idea. It was tiring going to the places. Not much available in my price range and it was a little more than what we wanted to pay but oh well...

Tomorrow I fly back home and start packing my junk up. So much to pack up! Bleh! I'm going to watch tv now.
