I am buying a new computer, either an iMac, or a MacBook.

No, the one for the smileys which screams "NO WAY!" and scares the bejeezus out of me. I'd pay good money to get that removed.

Anyway, i'm using my newly found income (I was worried that I didn't qualify because I have SSI so I never actually applied, but my mom is finally giving me the $200 she's owed me since last December) to buy myself some more CDs. Or maybe some new t-shirts or a few books.



I hate the smiley one that screams too. I usually put my computer on mute and then forget and wonder why the sound doesn't work next time I go to watch a video! Alex doesn't actually have any control over which particular ads are shown though. He deals with a few advertising companies who put what they want. I think he can select to not have anything highly inappropriate, but that's about all the control he has, I think. I don't really know how it all works, I just know he can't pick which specific ads to run and which not to run, which is unfortunate. I mean, that's why you'll sometimes see offensive curebie ads even! It's based on stats.
