is it me or are lcd monitors becoming really affordable? i went into best buy yesterday just to peek (bc i have no money to spend) and was surprised to see dell/hp 23" WIDESCREEN monitors for $199-299. wtf? i thought these sized monitors were going for $1000 a few years ago. LOL maybe it's the combination of technological advances and the down economy that is creating these low prices. i would get one if i had the money. damnit. also, while at best buy i noticed that 2 girls smiled at me. (i wonder if it's the body spray. i get smiles a lot lately. didn't really happen before, it has to be the bodyspray.)
i noticed a shift in attitude within myself yesterday. usually, when my mom says something really stupid, i just think to myself... "OMG THAT IS SO STUPID, I WILL NOT EVEN RESPOND." and i just stay quiet and it's just a really uncomfortable silence for a few seconds. and, because of this, i usually feel a sense of guilt, so at the end of this exchange i am the loser. but yesterday, i was really open minded about it and just replied simply to the stupid remarks honestly and truthfully. i did not criticize her remarks or analyze it and explain to her why the remark was stupid. i just replied to the questions with a straightforward common sense, succinct answer. i think the answers were so obvious that she realized herself that they were really stupid questions by herself. i didn't feel guilty because i didn't leave her hanging and it also clearly showed her that she was asking too many obvious questions that she already knew the answers to. (hmm i wonder if it's the iodide salt and kelp i tried yesterday.)

I ve been hearing that these ads by google makes money. I have no idea how, but maybe you want to look into this and report back to us. lol.
@BreannaBerry - you mean the ones on xanga? yep, every time someone clicks on one, i make about 2 cents. lol
im naive. explain.
@BreannaBerry - if you have a google adsense account, you are able to display advertising which when clicked upon, receive tiny income. now, if you have xanga premium, xanga allows you to use google adsense. i have both google adsense and xanga premium, all my advertisements are potential income if clicked. problem is i don't get enough traffic. i heard that the most active guy on xanga (theologian's cafe) makes about 5-6000 dollars a year off of google adsense.
Re LCD's:
At least the junk folks will be throwing away in 5-10 years will take up less space.
@JMaWasHere - u got that right
