i agree with megan and rupa

you can't go from powerbook/ibook to dell! actually, i've also heard of a lot of people who have had problems with their dell battery, so def get the warranty if you do get it. but rupa seems to have good alternatives if you don't want to pay for an ibook, although, if you're not going to be using it a lot, you don't need all that capacity anywyas, so just get an ibook!

more on spikey: he is involved in his son's life. he actually brought him to the movies with a bunch of us one night. it's the only time i've met him - his name's gavin. we all hung out and got food before the movie, then when we got to the theater spikey was sitting next to me and his son was sitting on the other side of him. before the movie started, gavin kept whispering to him that he wanted spikey to switch seats with him. spikey was like: "why, do you want to sit next to the girls? tell me why you want to switch seats, if not i won't switch with you." gavin was too embarrased to tell him why he wanted to sit next to me so they didn't switch, but it was cute.

i don't remember what his major was, i don't know his gpa. he works for carnival - he's a personal vacation planner (same as what peter used to do). out of 500 sales people he's the 3rd best seller, so i guess he's good at what he does. i don't know what his long term goals are. i know, i know: carnival salesman isn't very ambitious, but oh well.

and rups, i def like your idea of hanging out with spikey when i'm home and dating joe when i'm here. i talked to peter a bit while i was on vacation and stuff, but after my vacation i'm def convinced that i don't want to date him right now. i don't think he feels the same way, though. he gave me this really cute pic of the two of us that was taken when we were 19! it's hard to believe that we've been friends for soo long.

yumm - brownies sound really yummy right now. nush, jackie, and i all started the south beach diet today, so absolutely no sugar and carbs for 2 weeks. blah.
