I got an email a couple hours ago from a co-worker who knows that I have more than one computer. He was trying to see if I wanted to buy a used cisco router from him. I had to tell him I don’t have internet at home, and have never quite gotten the hang of accessing other computers on the home network. My friend Owen can, I can’t. I’m sure that going into the field of Computer Networking at college will give me the knowledge to do it, but right now, I don’t have it, and really don’t need it. That’s why I have a portable hard drive! LOL
I’m still waiting for a confirmation from the school about when I go in for the computer placement test and the like. I’m not really too happy with them as they’ve ignored both emails and phone calls about it. I’m pretty sure it starts at 3:45 PM, but I’d like to know where I’m supposed to go in the building for it, etc. Might be a good thing to know! 
I’ve been playing an online browser game at work and when I’m online at LaShawn’s house - it’s called Ikariam. It’s pretty neat. You build a town on an island, you colonize other islands, make trade agreements with other members, fight corruption in your towns. I like it, even though I don’t really have corruption and I only have 2 colonies. LOL But it’s a cool game.
Ok, I’m running out of things to say, as evidenced by my ramblings. I’m trying to get myself to write longer posts, not doing these little short burst type things I’ve been doing. So far, not going well, as I can’t seem to write a lot at once. *sigh* Oh well, I’m sure I’ll get better.

It’s not always a good idea to purchase something that you are not even sure how to use, so you made a good move
on that one. I took several courses in computers in college, but unfortunatly did not get to finish. Although I learned
enough to have a website and the like, there are things that frustrate me, and yet there are still more people out
there more advanced than I.
I wish you well on those placement exams. I hope those people contact you soon. Sometimes it takes time to be
notified, the worst that could happen is you’d have to go and find the testing room yourself, which has happend to
me. Ikariam sounds like a fun game. I love computer games, so that one sounds like my kind of game lol!
Well I’ll leave you be, I just opened my site on Sunday, so feel free to drop in. Maybe we can affiliate, although if
we do I’ll place you in my loved and admired section. I’m thinking of only linking sites that I really enjoy, and yours is
one that I’ve seen before. So let me know. Good luck on the exams!
