Errands-A-Go-Go

Our office had early release at 2 PM today. I actually stayed to the bitter end, even though I had practically nothing work-related to do.

I had four major errands to accomplish today and all are completed:

1. Shipped a package. See here for a cryptic reference.
   
2. This past weekend, we bought a laptop for cuyahogarvr's group travel planning business. Alas, it was having extreme angst flipping into extended graphics mode once WinXP started. I stopped by the computer shop with the intent of leaving it for a week while we were travelling to South Carolina but they addressed the issue with a complete replacement. I was on the road within a half-hour!
   
3. MicroCenter sent me a card redeemable for my choice of a free 2 GB flash USB drive or 2 GB SD-RAM chip. After a quick stop at their store on the way home, I now have a 2 GB flash drive.
   
4. I returned the sunglasses I purchased yesterday. They are very nice glasses but overnight I was struck with a nasty case of buyer's remorse: I just couldn't justify spending that kind of money on something I've done without for 40 years and would use only sparingly.

Now to have dinner, a nap and pack for a long weekend in Charleston, SC.

On the Road!

kent4str, cuyahogarvr and I will be on the road in about 10 minutes. We're on our way to Charleston, SC, for the weekend.

Hopefully, at this hour of the night, traffic will be largely reduced and therefore be somewhat tolerable.
