37” of love

Last week, I sold my 27” LCD HDTV to a family member for $300.  I used the money to “upgrade” to a 37”.  37” is the biggest I have ever seen anyone with a single room get, as well as the biggest monitor I have seen.  Definitely a sight for poor eyes   Both the 360 and PC look great through it, and the three HD channels that my 30 year old antenna can pick up look great too.  Maybe I’ll look into this free to air satellite thingy.

I also managed to secure a wii.  Having friends at Circuit City helps I guess   I still had to get a voucher and wait three days though.  Can’t wait to mod it.

I got my grades: my first strait A semester in many years (with an A+ to boot).  Proof that casual smoking/drinking doesn’t impair ability.

It wasn’t a purely good news week though.  I wasted $40 on some of that detox crap from GNC for the drug test.  Specifically it was called QCARBO32.  Apparently it diluted my pee too much for the test to be useful, so now I have to retake it and I’m out $40 which wouldn’t be so bad except that the stuff made me sick.  I won’t get into the details, but my waste products were weird colors, frequent and unnaturally textured for around 2 days.  I guess we shall see if they honor their money back guarantee (UPDATE: they did).  Its sickening that I haven’t done anything in over 30 days and I still have to be in fear of loosing everything I have accomplished with this job.
