Red dwarf, a rolling computer, a rug and cable cable cable
Tax refund showed up. (Woo Hoo!) So got me a new house phone (I can set the ringer to any midi file I want. Now if you call me at home I’ll be notified by the Red Dwarf theme,) a rolling computer bag (I’m so sick of carrying a backpack and laptop bag through airports,) a new area rug for the office, and finished off my switch over to all Monster Cables for the home entertainment system. (Now I just need to replace most of the connectors. Maybe with the proceeds from my next royalty check…) The rest of the refund money goes to a car tuneup this week (good idea before I start the great tour of Kansas next month) and repainting the bedroom. (Maybe next weekend, who knows.)
