You can never have too many extra mobos...
Yesterday, I got a call from TigerDirect, asking if I'd like to open a corporate account so I could save on future purchases and get free shipping. What a deal! I'm thinking they must be desperate for business, considering the only thing I've ever bought from TD was a Toshiba 20G 1.8" HDD.
That's it. One hard drive. And it qualifies me for a corporate account!
Anyway, I'm not a huge fan of TigerDirect, especially after the LaCie debacle in July. My own dear hubby, in the most misguided metaphor ever, said, "... It's Tiger. It's like taking a shotgun, pointing it at your house, and pulling the trigger. Sometimes it hits, sometimes it doesn't." ResellerRatings backs me up on this one.
Completely changing subjects... In my pre-doctor panic yesterday, I forgot to log out of my work computer and missed an IM from Carrie. That's what I get for being irresponsible.
I guess it worked out okay though, because I also had an IM from Matt. He's fine, he's home, he's settling down (that elicited a raised eyebrow from me). He said Thanksgiving was good and the Michigan weather is crappy. He has a stable Internet connection, but no phone. So there you go ... a Matt update. ::grins::
Hope everyone is having decent weather. It's finally pretty cold here (yay!), which means I'm going to go outside and play instead of sitting at my desk fielding messages from TigerDirect and/or old friends.
I will, however, take comments from you guys, since that's what makes me smile first thing in the morning. :)

i know what i am getting you for christmas (early for once)
Any discounts on that corporate stuff? Not that you would WANT it, if the products are that bad, heh...
Ooh, corporate account! Free shipping! It's like a Christmas miracle!
Anyway, HI KATE! Also, sorry I have nothing more interesting to say.
I have even less to add. However, I was chosen to receive a free three month trial to Amazon Prime. Free two-day shipping, baby!
I actually ordered something Monday and received it yesterday, so depending on the location of the item in their warehouses across the country, there's a good chance it will turn out to be free overnight shipping!
I got a rock.
Kate,
Thanks for the name of that spice store. I found their site and got Laura a gift box of spices for French cooking. Then I went to Amazon and got her Mastering the Art of French Cooking, Volume One, by Julia Child. Those two items make a very nice (and thoughtful) Christmas gift.
Woah, woah!!! I can't believe I didn't notice this before...! OLD FRIENDS??? Is that OLD as in "the friends from the good ole' days? Or is that old as in "Man, you are getting REEEEEEEEEEEALLY old???!!!
Just needed the clarification. :P

Teeny-boppers ;)
