But I was at MicroCenter today and saw an Asus Eee PC
It is a mini laptop with a 4g solid state hard drive, 8″ screen (800×400) and running Linux!
It was very easy to use and fast. It is running a custom version of Linux, KDE applications. They say it is compatible with Winblows XP, but I don’t really care about that. The size was great! The keyboard was small but usable. Pretty impressive for $350. If we ever get another laptop, this one may be it. Small, great battery life and no moving parts, and it comes pre-loaded with Linux!
Thankfully everyone is feeling better. I would of never thought I could do some of the things I have done in the last 2 weeks. I am really glad Glenn is feeling better. You really don’t want a baby with a stomach bug, that’s all I can say.
It is nice to hear silence every now and then. Glenn has been teething, which is not that fun. Drool everywhere.
On Friday I was incredibly sick, so gross I really don’t want to describe what I did. It was just eww.
Unfortunately, little Glenn got what I got and did a repeat performance, baby scale. I knew he was going to hurl because the look on his face was the same as mine.
Luckily, he looked much better in the morning, and he did sleep through the night. He ate some waffle this morning and kept it down. The lunch was not as good. I think we need to avoid milk for a little while. He has been drinking the baby electrolyte stuff (basically Gatoraide for babies.) I wasn’t sick that long, so I hope he does the same, a day of feeling like crap then much better pretty quickly. Poor little guy, I know what he is going through.
2007 is almost over.
Highlights are:
- Got to see Glenn grow up quite a bit. He went from semi-worm state to walking, running, and pseudo talking boy.
- Celebrated our 5 wedding anniversary. It’s a good milestone to reach.
- Heath is still pretty good, need to loose more weight.
- Doubled my watch collection.
- Tiff is playing a current, modern game system (Nintendo DS Lite).
Lowlights:
- Still no flying car in my garage.
- Still no personal robot.
- Bush and company have not been impeached for war crimes and treason.
- Gas under $3.00 a gallon is “cheap”
Weekend
Got out a little while this afternoon. I forgot just how hectic shopping can be. Everything is always moving. I think the both of us are really used to shopping online, instead of in stores. Too much stress.
Glenn is teething some more, I think a bottom one is coming in. Very puffy and he is not happy.
In other news, it is good to know that Bush has, max, one year left. They should of impeached him years ago, in my opinion. It’s funny, I looked up what Mike Huckabee’s positions were, and I found I disagree with every single position he has. Every one. Immigration, stem cell research, death penalty, religion, even evolution. The man DOES NOT believe in evolution. That is like not believing in gravity. Somehow, I want the leader of our nation to use real science, not the words of a 3,000 year old book written by desert nomads.
