A 60 gig SSD?!? That's awesome! I'll probably stick it in my new PC. Now I just need to decide if I want to use it for a boot drive or for games. I'm thinking games, most likely. Probably use Steam Mover to move around games that really need that extra boost in load times, or something. Now I can just blame Rolo if when I buy a new computer I spend like $2000 on SSDs.
Also:
A Neural Impulse Activator. Basically it means I can play videogames with my brain now. I hope everyone's okay with me being the videogame master now, because that's what I'm gonna be.
(Seriously gonna try to do some LPs with it, it's sure to be something special)
Also, this note:
Thank you so much, @Rolo! You are truly the giftmaster of my heart.

woop woop! I'm so glad it showed up!
Canada post was all "the package is... somewhere. We don't really know." and I was worried it would show up after you guys had moved!
Mori - I hope the brain thingy still works (it's actually kind of crappy anyway but I figured it'd be worth a laugh). I would use the SSD as a boot drive (where it will do the most good), and then keep your other drive for games.
Janson - hope you like the colors! And I hope she likes the blanket (you know, once she pops out and such). I was thinking about clothes but I'm not sure what you've already gotten.
Also Mori I'm glad that your hand writing is as messy as mine, I was slightly intimidated by Janson's perfect lettering when I was writing.
@Vivixenne, I'm sorry! Hehe. Well, not that sorry.
@Rolo, they are great! I'll definitely get a lot of use out of the black and purple. I tried on the pink for a laugh, and it makes me look as if I have a really bad cold (well, I do, but my eyes usually aren't affected), but the blue is fabulously 80s and I shall try the green soon too!
EDIT: The great thing about the Urban Decay brand is its incredible staying power - and they really don't smudge. Which also makes for great temporary hand doodling (and a bit healthier than using actual pens, haha!) I am a terrible hand doodler.

VivixenneRemember your training, and we'll get through this just fine.Registered Userregular
you can use the blue liner alone (or with a neutral matte eyeshadow on the lid) for a day look, or with silver eyeshadow and a dark blue shadow in the corner of your eye
you can also use the pink as a base for a pink eyeshadow look
I'm only just getting into colored eyeliners and I'm using cheap versions of the ones you got... they're SO much fun
:^: Always good to have make-up tips! I'm still not very sure of what I'm doing.
Make-up is kinda on a hold while I'm pregnant mainly because I'm too tired and snuffly to want to have to deal with it, although to be honest I need it now more than ever; my skin is all kinds of hormonal terrible.

Man, I think her handwriting intimidates everyone. And the brain thingy, I'm not sure if it still works or not. My computer's USB ports are funky so for all I know it could and it's just not detecting it right. I'll certainly use the SSD for a boot drive, gonna save it for when I get the new computer.

Dear Anonymous Satan,
HOLY &%^%$^&**!!!
Also, omg thank you!!
So I went into the PA office this morning and as usual Robert was there. He said to me, "oh hey, there is some furniture by the door for you," and I replied, "?????". He said, "hey, I dunno, it's a huge box and it's like a desk or something. It has your name on it, it must be yours." He disappeared in a puff of smoke and I wandered down to the front door to investigate. I saw this!
Okay, totally weird. It WAS a desk. And I had been looking at desks recently, since my work desk at home is literally held together with duct tape. I was 99% sure that I hadn't actually bought one, though... unless there had been some drastic malfunction of 1-Click Ordering. Strangely, I had picked the very one out that I really liked and added it to my Amazon wish list so that I'd be able to find it later when I had..... WAIT A SECOND.
No.
NO WAY.
... could it be?
I peeled the shipping manifest off the side of the box, and slowly turned it over....
AAAAAAAAAA IT WAS! SWEET JUMPING JOSEPH, SECRET SATAN! I was still staring at the label in disbelief when Brian strolled up behind me. "That's a nice desk," he said.
I nodded. "I... I think it's from my secret satan," I whispered.
"Wow. Nice. Oh, look. It has a 'Mech Lift Only' sticker on it. Must be pretty heavy. Welp, gotta go!"
Then he and Robert left to go golfing, and I dragged the 500000lb desk down from the second floor office to the parking lot, hefted it into my car, and low-rode the shocks all the way home. Here it is, all set up!!
Okay, I lied. It's not set up yet. My workspace has been temporarily evicted for the holidays. But as soon as January rolls around and Oh Tannenbaum heads into the chipper, my glorious new desk will claim that corner in the name of SE++. Thank you soooo much, Satan, whoever you are!!

I bought new skates at the start of the year and they never quite fit me properly and cause quite a bit of pain if I skated for more than 30 or 40 minutes
these are fresh out of the box. haven't been heat moulded to my feet or worn in yet
and they already fit better than my old pair.
I am STOKED. Thanks so much Chris you're crazy and amazing.

Is it common for there to be pairings like this?
@Caulk Bite 6, I did laugh heartily at the photo of the cat in the box. Typical cat!
Also, the Nedroid print is sweeeeeeeet.
I may have to wait till my new computer, I know most of the USB ports on this thing are messed up.
well, with the twitching of his head
I hope they like iiiiit!
