On the subject though, I finally broke down and bought a Wacom Tablet...should be swinging by work sometime next week...*drools expectantly* Ha, well there IS that choice too, but where’s the fun in that?

I don't know if I could pull it off just yet, but once I'm more established at the library (assuming I get a job there this fall), that wouldn't be a bad idea at all. Of course, what I <i>really</i> need to do is train myself to stop buying stuff. ;) Hmm, that’s a good idea.

I don't know if that would help you out, but there might be someone somewhere that could take packages shipped that way and hold them for you. *shrugs* (For future reference...)

The walk home was a struggle to keep from the regular bursts of frustration/anger. I sang hymns. I prayed. I kept talking myself out of it. And then I got home and found a note on the door saying they'd left it with my next-door neighbor, and then I opened the door and saw the ViewSonic box on the floor at my roommate's feet. I <i>was</i> tempted to just delete this post, but oh well. I just wish I could only say that I'd have been this calm and placid and at peace with the world if my monitor <i>hadn't</i> come till Tuesday.
