Fail

Posted by Catie on January 11th, 2013 . Filed under: Blog365 .

Yes I did fail my own damn blog challenge on day 10. But that’s ok, I’ll keep going anyway. Blog364, ftw!

Blame it on housework guys. I didn’t even get on the computer until after 9pm and blogging totally slipped my mind. I was cleaning the living room and vacuuming and working on laundry and the dishes. Housewifely duties must come first. ;)

My laptop has officially bitten the big one. I’m not sure what the issue is. When I try to turn it on, the computer itself turns on, but the screen stays black. Google tells me this is a critical component error. Damn you Google. Everything I’ve tried hasn’t worked to fix it. I suppose I shouldn’t complain too much, since it was a $300 laptop. But I only had it for about a year. That’s a short life span even for a cheap computer. I think Gohan knocking it off a table a few weeks ago has something to do with it.

I’m not sure if I want to replace it with another cheap laptop or if I want to get another tablet. I’m thinking about an eyepad mini. (Take that, spammers!) Justifiably cheap, and has apps I can use for business purposes, and obviously allows me to be lazy and check Facebook, etc. from the couch. Not that I can’t do that from my phone, but a bigger screen is always appreciated.

What would you do? I’ll only have about $350 to spend, so my options are limited. My other option is to just keep using my phone and the desktop computer, but that’s boring. haha.
