YAYYYYY!!!! My new computer is done!!! Irving and I started building my new computer piece by piece last year, and it’s finally done! And it’s pretty sweet.

This week we installed the final touches:

And Irving set it all up!

I can’t believe that when I hit the “power” button, the thing actually turned on!

It’s amazing how a hunk of metal actually does what you want it to. All those wires and plugs actually worked! I couldn’t believe it.

The only dud out of everything was my Rosewill all-in-one card reader. I don’t recommend it. It didn’t work at all. Boo. But everything else is working great!

And now I’m getting to know my new best friend: Windows Live Writer! Don’t you love my new “rounded photos”? It makes blogging SO much easier!

Woo hoo!

Every year, one of the schools in my area has a big carnival. Irving and I went over there this weekend to play around with our cameras. Here are a few pictures…

Not bad for a point and shoot camera, eh?
I’m really looking forward to learning more about cameras this year.

PS… I lost a toenail. It got pretty beat up in the marathon last week… and today, it just popped off. It was both intriguing and horrifying at the same time. I’ll spare you the pictures. 😦 Will it grow back? Does anyone know?

I scheduled this post to go live at 10am Monday morning. If you’re reading this, I’m getting ready to head to the start line of the Boston Marathon!!

I’m probably nervous and excited right now! I promise a giant recap post this week, but in the meantime, enjoy this cute little video I made!

 

Let the nerves set in! April 15, 2010

I started packing last night to go to Boston. It was kind of weird how real it felt. I’m actually running the Boston Marathon in 4 days. WOAHH!

I just feel ready though. I’m confident in my training and I’m excited for that race day energy the Boston Marathon course promises.

But this does NOT make me happy:

Say it ain’t so!

 

Things are lookin’ Good! April 12, 2010

I can’t believe that a week from right now I’ll have my medal around my neck proclaiming myself a “Boston Marathon Finisher”. It’s so surreal.

I have a love/hate relationship with Weather.com…. but today, I love them.

This would be PERFECT!
