Counting Days

93 Days

… and counting. Not a worthy Core 2 Duo motherboard in sight. Sure, I’ve seen mirages of what look liked a great board but *sigh* alas, tis only an illusion.
It’s kinda like lightning strikes – one quick flash of brilliance and it’s gone. I have but one hope left and it’s the eVGA 680i, but they’re nowhere to be seen except for momentary
glimpses of what the board looks like. It’s hilarious how they leak the picture and a short description of the board but nothing else. When you ask for more they yell NDA (non-disclosure agreement), wait for the press release. Like OMG. That’s just wicked of them. Like I once said before, NDAs are EVIL.

It’s like a very long striptease without showing all the goods. Here I am waving dollar bills and ready to shove it down eVGA’s banana sling and this guy is not putting out!
What a gawd damn tease! I bet availability will be so scarce when they come out and won’t be out en mass till Xmas time. Well, I can’t wait that long. Well, if it comes to that, I’m going over at ASUS and get the WS PRO. I hear that guy is so easy and puts out.

10 Days
… and still without my GPU. It’s my 2nd RMA and I am having withdrawal – BIG TIME. Glad of their great CS. I’m holding my tongue for judgement. I’ll just leave it like that.

32 Days

… of waiting for Auzentech X-Meridian. It was officially released yesterday, or was it the day before. Who really cares?! I can’t find them in retail yet. I smell a conspiracy here.

2 Days

… before my AV receiver and speakers gets delivered.

45 Days
.. before I can afford to buy a new monitor.

23 Days
… till Thanksgiving weekend – my favorite time of the year for shopping. It’s like the Olympics of shopping event and I always medal GOLD when it comes to bargain hunting.

55 Days
… till Xmas! W00t!

12 Days
… till my bday.Woohoo ! One more year and I can gamble in Vegas! Well, I suppose I could now just as long as I don’t win. Can’t wait to go to bars too so they can card me!  Ha !  Take that!  Umm, I’m getting ahead of myself,  one more year… just one more!
5 Days
… since I quit smoking. I am a bitch. I feel bad for my roomies. I feel bad for my dawgie; I almost strangled Shaggy when USC lost to Oregon State. Yeah, Oregan State of all teams. Damn it I need a cig.

One More Day

… before I light up! I have 2.5 hrs left before midnite – that’s tomorrow ain’t it?
