Mini vacation<\/strong>: We went to my aunt’s last weekend to see my cousin Melanie who’s going back to Iraq. We brought the puppies with us. Princess couldn’t stop running around for the first, oh, four hours, even though she couldn’t breathe. Poor baby had a lot of trouble with the stairs too. We clapped every time she go to the top. She got a kick outta that. It was raining Monday, so we didn’t get to do any shore stuff. I still managed to get sunburned without the beach on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Acne<\/strong>: Well, either the clarisonic brush is working, the jojoba oil or both. I haven’t had a breakout on my chin since I’ve been using them. I’ve had one deep cyst for the past month, but it seems to be going away without surfacing. I have two little pimples on my cheek and little bumps on my forehead and chin that I hope will go away in the next few weeks.<\/p>\n

Lappy<\/strong>: Those of you following me on twitter<\/a> know that my laptop has taken a turn for the worse. It had charging issues for the past two years now, but it generally charged faster than it used the battery. Not so much anymore. I’ve been looking at new laptops, but as always, I can’t make up my mind. I get discounts on Dell and HP, but I’m a little inlove with this Sony<\/a>. It’s between that, the Dell Studio 15, Dell Studio XPS 16, or HP dv6t.
\nI want something that’s under $1000, between 15.6″ and 16.4″ (I could live with 15.4), Intel Core 2 Duo T6400 processor or better, 2.0Ghz+, 3GB RAM+, 320GB of hard drive space, bluetooth, and Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit with SP1. I’d prefer a backlit keyboard and a TV tuner, but they’re not necessary. Anyone who recommends a Mac is getting a beating. No, really, I need a PC for work.<\/p>\n

Credit card<\/strong>: I’ve been using my student Visa for the past two years which has a teeny limit and no rewards. I really needed a new card. Blue Cash from American Express<\/a> came highly recommended.<\/p>\n

Star Trek<\/strong>: The movie has restored my faith in the Star Trek franchise. In a mere two hours it was able to erase the trauma caused by Insurrection, Nemesis and Enterprise.<\/p>\n

HelenaMaria<\/a>: We saw them yesterday at this ice cream place near Trenton. Both they and the ice cream were very good.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
