Current Ramblings

I'd vote for him.
I picked up a copy of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy soundtrack (which is mostly score, but good score) on Saturday and I've been meaning ever since to post about it, specifically "Vote Beeblebrox", a stirring campaign song that wasn't actually in the movie. But now there's a video up for it, and an official one at that, so you can all experience the joy for yourselves without waiting for shipping.
Every three months at work we get a "profit-based" bonus check, based on, well, how the company's profit was for the previous quarter. It's almost always triple-digit, but I've seen it range anywhere from $53 to $450, making it a bit of a wild card. But naturally, in anticipation, I've been thinking about what I've really been meaning to buy once I had a nice little chunk of money. After poking around the internet for a few hours I've pretty much decided that it's time to upgrade my PC to match this lovely broadband we got in March. My PC is about the cheapest thing Dell would sell me a year and a half ago, which means it's got a reasonable 2.4gHz processor but a mere 128mb of RAM and basic onboard video hardware. I really wanted to play Neverwinter Nights when we got it in at work, but it just hurt too much. About $130 will get me a gig of RAM and a decent 128mb video card from NewEgg.com. I can't really argue with that. I was just thinking that Guild Wars looked pretty sweet.
