I'd say it's time to put these days off to work. I fixed some of the problems with my website, redoing the Computer Workspace (my room) page, and redoing the Cars section. That page was getting a little long.

I took my car to the auto shop, cause I realized I can't replace the catalytic converter by myself... I don't have a torch. He looked and it, and frowned. There was smoke pouring out of it, and it was dying. It's so close to dying that I probably shouldn't drive it until we can get it replaced Monday. Good thing he found a supplier that'll get him a universal cat converter, so that he can slam it on for $90 including labour. I'm pretty happy with that.
We had a stroll tonight at the University Club, a private dinner party with some influential people. It was lots of fun, the small audience was very receptive.

Well, we had the electrician over finally to find out why there hasn't been power in my room for a couple weeks. My room and the bathroom are on the same circuit breaker, but the bathroom has power. I've been running an extension cord for a while now, lol. But I didn't think to check the bathroom wall recepticles, and that was one of the first things he did. Well, he pulled it out, and out came a charred recepticle with insulation all melted. Doh, that was the problem. I feel stupid now.
And I also cleaned my desk. I've arranged it for more efficient space usage.

Kia announced they will start to sell the Rio Wagon this summer, and it will start at a little over $9000. That's awesome! It's all about $9000 wagons, (like mine!) Maybe I'll buy a Rio wagon... it sounds very nice.
A client of mine gave me a complete Commodore 128 system today, with a disk drive, dot-matrix printer, tons and tons of software. It uses a proprietary display, though, which I don't have, so I can't really do much with it yet. But it's cool, it came with all the original packaging and stuff!
