Quite a sad day today as Miss Deaf Texas 1006 was struck by a train. So I drowned my sorrow in binge online purchasing.
I decided to go beyond my legitimate fear and rent again the Miata convertible at the corner of 18th and California Street for Sunday. For strange reasons I am somehow emotionally involved with that car.
I have also taken a step closer to buy a computer. I have been saying this for years and it is time to just take action. I wanted to buy one of these computers with the screen that light up and you can connect them to the internet and stuff but based on LL suggestion, it seems I might just get the IBM T43. We don’t buy Dell, it’s vulgar. This is soooo much money (let’s say it, it’s $1700 - Kevin D.'s annual income - and I am not counting the ugly hidden charges and the Microsoft suite bullshit and the i-pod and the Corbinfisher access codes etc…etc…) and it will end up like our friend RAZRV3: outdated and cheap in a year from now. Just today someone told me “oh cute, a vintage phone”. As soon as my credit card will be swiped, the technology will be revolutionized and next thing you know people will access the internet through their toothbrush or an amazing deal will show up on amazon.com and I’ll regret all my life my purchase. If I had married a nerd like Frif did, he would custom a computer for me with different parts but no. You know I don’t really need a computer; it’s just that the gym queens give me dirty looks at Results because I don’t have an i-pod like everyone else. The only way I will ever buy one is by being impulsive. I hereby promised I will have bought a computer tomorrow evening.
Everyone please tell FHC that a) it's an investment that will last a while (read: maybe a few months at best) and b) he needs a safe place to look at porn(read: we all know that Kevin is going to be using it more than FHC)

FHC, buying a computer is an investment. Mine is almost 3 years old, has had the DVD/CD drive accidentally ripped out, has been dropped numerous times, and is full of music and porn all while continueing to work like a charm.
p.s. try looking at http://www.newportinns.com , and depending on what time of year you are looking i'd get on it quick. Summer is a popular time.

i would like to defend my honor by letting everyone know that i have not looked at porn on FHC's computer since 2004 (craig's list, m4m dc). however, fhc has most DEFINITELY looked at porn on my computer very recently (censored). in fact, i returned home one morning to find my curtains drawn completely shut and my computer wide open. evidently fhc has much regard for the neighbors but little regard for his roommate. that's a). and b) if fhc does indeed purchase a new computer, it goes without saying that the netflix membership for the corcoran street retirement village will be cancelled due to lack of interest, and due to newfound enthusiasm in extreme internet porn on the part of fhc.
sending all my love from amarillo, texas,
x0x0, kevin d.
