MOTD
We did a little shopping yesterday. I had to get extra ram for the work computer to speed things up a little. It's a last-ditch effort; the next step is buying a new computer. Yay!
Also went out and got a mic/headset so we can coordinate and strategize in CrimeCraft since the previous patch has added daily tournaments. Nothing too fancy, a $30 Logitech thing, but it works fine, was easy install, and it got the job done, even though we came in second in last night's tourney.
Last night we watched House and
Four Christmases, the former being quite trippy and the latter rather entertaining with a few good chuckles.
