Lucky Me

  First I'd like to say that the letter stuff was mailed on Tuesday sometime, so it should arrive today or tomorrow. If she chooses to tell my father about the letter, I'm fairly sure he's going to react. Hubby has assured me as long as I have the deadbolt locked he can't break down my front door. I'd feel better if I had a baseball bat. I have some knives though, they just don't have as far of a reach. Enough about that.
  I have a gifted nephew. By marriage...on my side they are far too young. He programs computers. He's gonna build me a speedy gonzalez one, I think. Just have to talk hubby into spending the money. I haven't been able to get any of our 3 games to play on here without freezing my computer. Risk II, Age of the Empires II, and Diablo II. You get so far and it just freezes. He was checking my RAM today. Apparently there are a few processes that are taking too much memory for what it shows or something. There's something not right in the CPU usage or something. Whatever, it's not like I know anything about this stuff anyway. He's gonna fix me up with extra RAM and a fast processor. He rolled his eyes at me over my reasoning for Firefox. Oh well, I love my tabs! He thinks I have a program running that's not showing up or something. Hooked me up with Spybot...got it from download.com, I think. Apparently it's the best for spyware and stuff. He says my ad-aware is a spyware item. Oh well, I need a gaming system! Gonna have a CD burner with Nero. Maybe I'll be able to burn pics. Something's up with my burner now. The drive takes forever to read whatever disc is in it. It's either going out or needs cleaning. I'm just gonna save this tower for when the kids need computer access. I'm sure XP will be outdated by then, but it'll be good enough to surf the internet and use Word. It's all they will need for schoolwork. Nephew graduated HS last year. He builds his own computers. Apparently has for years. Very smart kid. I'd have him teach me, but he's still a kid. Has a lot of 'stuff' to do. I won't ask him. Maybe I'll find some tutorials or something and learn on my own.
