So....What's New ' Round Here?

Andreas could stand it no longer.

The screams.

The crying.

The name calling.

The begging.

The banging.

He had finally seen enough of the relationship I had going on with my computer mouse, and went an ordered me a new one.... And then when my headphones went kaput, we decided to go to FRYS. I of course being the cheapskate that I am, kept trying to find the cheapest pair that were not so ugly and cheaply made looking. But since I was only able to use USB headphones, there was nothing under $30.00

So Andreas suggested he buy and install a 12 dollar sound card in my computer, ( because the outlets for my original one was shot, there for the reason why I could only use USB).

So I was then able to pick out this $14.99 headset..... I REALLY like them. When I have them on, and the volume is on off, I still have to say "Huh? Huh?" when the hubby is saying something to me. Very comfy on my ears. The only thing I didn't like , is that the place where you talk into the microphone is a bit too large.

This past Wednesday, the electric company came to my house. My landlord signed up for some kind of program where Edison Electric comes in and not only gives you energy saving light bulbs ( which I already had), but they also install energy saving FIXTURES. I had no idea there was even such a thing.
These were put in the kitchen and hallway...... This one went into my bathroom...... Notice the circle where the paint and plaster is missing underneath the light. Yeah, well it was ALL in my medicine cabinet and sink. Do you think they bothered to clean it up? Do you think my landlord is going to fix that area on the wall?? ( SNORT)
My main question is..Why?...Oh WHY? Could they have not replaced this atrocity... And give me something like this :
In other news, I am happy to say I have finally sent off the last of the forms for Andreas to adjust status and become a permanent resident. Now we will have to play the waiting game. I know it will take at least 6 months . If we would have started this sooner, this would all be said and done with. However if I didn't procrastinate, I just wouldn't be me , now would I???? I will admit I am trying my hardest to get better when it comes to that "p" word.

Something else that will be happening soon, will be that my little sister will be getting married in April. I am so happy for her, even though my future brother in law does not make the best Scrabble teammate. (Noway!... with a K. ;P )
