Another evening workout, as Candi slept over last night. Worth it, of course. I love my girlfriend. I thought I’d play Sims while she played Spore, but I spent the entire evening browsing computer components. My inner nerd is coming out, for sure.

Work was fine. Spent part of the day reviewing and preparing for our upcoming food safety audit. We’ll do just fine, there’s just nuances I nailed down with my GM. Food safety audits are never announced, but we’re due. My GM thinks we may get ours tomorrow, conveniently while she’s being sent to a bullshit class on how to run shifts. Seriously. If we do get audited, I know we’ll knock`em dead. Heck, I look forward to it.

Looking forward to getting my video card in a few days. The girl thinks I really just want a new computer, though it isn’t like that. I bought my current card for $150 four years ago. Buying a new video card which is three generations better than my current one for $55 dollars is a good deal. There’s also a $10 dollar rebate on it, though I never factor rebates in. I could have gotten a slightly better one for a few bucks more, but I decided, “But then you’ll say ‘well, for 10 bucks more, I’ll get a better one.’ And then ten bucks more. And then ten bucks more.” $55 dollars is a goddamn steal, if you ask me.

I joke with myself about buying a new motherboard, so I could upgrade my CPU, but that would concurrently require new RAM. I promised myself I would never canabalize Roxanne. I will hold myself to that. I could have bought a new hard drive to replace my older hard drive, which is at LEAST five years old. But. I have everything backed up on my external hard drive. My OS is running off of my second hard drive. There’s simply no need to get a third hard drive.

The girl wants to play WoW with me someday. I joke that she needs to finish Spore first. I’m sure once I get my new video card, I’ll be interested in replaying FarCry. I never did finish it. It’s not a game you blaze through.

Sleep soon.
