Hey Catlin, I'm just gonna weather the storm till I get the new PC. I'm gonna burn the abstract and then pull it up when I get a new pc. Its not that big of a deal. I did change my virtual memory, maybe thats something to keep in mind when I get the new computer. So many things to know. Since this is my thread, I'm gonna go OT: Saw my husband today, his birthday is coming up in Oct and he told me his girlfriend is giving him a party at a restaurant and is inviting his friends. He said that she might invite me. But alas, the party will be on a night that I work. I bowed out gracefully. Now, the delema, do I send him a card? I'm ROFLMAO at the thought of sending him one of those sexy girl cards. But I don't think I'll waste my money, seeing as how he forgot my birthday this year and made it up by buying me a box at an auction a few days later. Anyhow, my life is fairly stable at the moment, trying to savor these moments. Angela
