Technology

It's been a big technology week for me. First of all, I bought a computer. Our old one still kind of works but it's starting to have problems. Sometimes it gets hot and then just shuts down. Whenever you turn it on, it takes forever to get logged on again. Thus, my e-mails take slightly less time to arrive than regular mail. When the computer is on, sometimes it sounds like someone snoring really loud. All bad signs.

So I figured out which computer I wanted to buy with a formula I came up with myself. (10s+100r+50b+d)/P, where s=screen size, r=ram, b=battery life, d=disc drive space, and P=price.  The higher the number, the better. I was going to throw a square root in there just to spice it up. It would have been unnecessary, but very cool.

Also this week I learned to text on my phone. I'm no expert yet, but I'm improving. I don't know how to capitalize, punctuate or back up to correct mistakes yet. So I've sent texts that look like, "im learnding sto tesxpt". For some reason I thought each text would cost me a dime, so I was going to quit. But today I learned I have unlimited texting. Today I sent a personal best of four texts, so "unlimited" texting will probably be more than I need, but who knows.

Finally, I found out today my phone is eligible for a free upgrade. I have know idea what that means, but I'm excited.
