We're gonna bowl-oh-oh-owl Tonight

Ug. My computer at home broke. The fan stopped working. My friend [livejournal.com profile] kirathaune, because she can do anything, is going to get a new computer case for me, and try to fix it. Although I'm tempted to just give in and get a laptop. :)

My first thought was not about my iTunes, or any documents I have saved (although my mystery story is in there, so hopefully I can retrieve it) but that I have to have it fixed by the weekend so I can watch Doctor Who. My priorities, let me show you them.

In other, much more fun, news...Charlie started bowling lessons yesterday. My BFF, [livejournal.com profile] just5miles enrolled her son in the class, and last week we met up with them there, and just on the off chance, I asked the teacher if it was too late to get Charlie in, and she said no, so I signed him up.

The nice thing is, since he missed the first couple of weeks, it didn't cost quite as much. AND he still got his very own bowling ball as part of the deal.

And, oh how he loves his new bowling ball. I'll have to take a photo of it for you. The colours are the same as 'ultimate Big Chill' from Ben Ten, or something, and this makes him happy.

The teacher, I'm proud to say, is thrilled with him. He picked up the basics very quickly, and is so enthuseastic about the whole thing, I think that just charmed the heck out of her.

He got two strikes with his new ball, too.

My priorities, let me show you them. LOL.

I have your mystery story on my hdd here at work, just in case. And is all your music ON your iPod?

Not that I anticipate losing anything. I *might* be able to wipe my old laptop, restore it to its old settings and have that ready for you for Saturday.

Aw...that'd be nice. Seriously...what would I do without you? I don't know. I really, really don't.

Er...only thing though, your old laptop can't watch television shows, right? :)

I'm not sure. That's why I'm going to completely wipe it. I was shocked that Wendie was able to watch streaming video on Kate's old laptop - and my old one is better. I might just have too much memory-hogging junk on it.

Worst case, you come over my house and we stream it on my new one!

Oh, cool! I would love a laptop. Would save SO much space in my room.

It would at least buy me some time whilst I re-vamp your desktop.

If you didn't happen to live in the wrong country, I'd invite you and Charlie to watch here !

That would be nice. Wish someone would hurry up and invent teleportation already.
