Now that's capitalism 

Yesterday (Friday) was some goot and some bod. One of my laptops refused to turn on or charge a battery (Even though the power light was on indicating that it was plugged in), so I took it up the street to one of them repair places. The guy said he thought he knew what was wrong with it, and if he was correct it would cost more to repair the system than it would to buy an entirely new computer. Fark.

In order to cheer myself up I went to Toys 'R' Us and played with the toys, and played some video games there too. Then I went to Krispy Kreme and bought an assorted dozen. I ate three and took the rest to The Bead Factory.

Oh! Here's something interesting about The Bead Factory. They recently signed up an account at CafePress, and since I'm the one who referred them I apparently get like %5 of everything they sell. They ordered like $400+ from their own store, so it made me like $22. Ca-razy! That's pretty cool. And I know they have plans to buy more stuff from themselves. Plus I'm putting a link to the store on their website, so if anybody else buys something from them I'll make a tiny bit of money for every sale. Now that's capitalism!

Anyway, on the way home from The Bead Factory I picked up some steak and then came home and wrote that new article. I just had to actually sit down and do it is all, and I had a lot of fun writing it, too. I don't know why I hadn't written it, oh, say a month or more ago.

Then after she got off work Brandy came over and I cooked up the steaks with some broccoli, then we went with Geoff, Ed, and Jack Cameron to see Intolerable Cruelty, which (yes) I will review here sometime soon, I swear. Quick review right now: Intolerable Cruelty gives Lost in Translation a run for its money on being the best film so far this year. It's really fantastic.
