Holy shit! I just set up my 19" Samsung flat panel monitor, and I'm completely floored with how bright everything is. That, and I've got the resolution set to 1280X1024, so everything looks significantly different. This monitor is going to rock for AutoCAD and Photoshop.
So, I learned something important in regards to my septum piercing today:
Working out with it tucked into my nose is quite uncomfortable because it makes it just that much more difficult to breathe. Normally, I'd suck it up and just workout with it exposed for the world to see, but my mom also works out there and I DON'T want her finding out about this piercing. I know, I'm 20 years old, and I live on my own, blah, blah, blah, but I just don't want to hear the nagging. My parents haven't been too receptive about my piercings. For that reason, they still don't know that I have a tattoo.
So, nothing happened on Valentine's Day like I had originally said. Instead, I bought myself a venti passion tea lemonade from Starbucks in the morning, a Quizno's chicken carbonara sub for dinner, and a tall Tazo chai latte in the evening. Yeah, I spoiled myself rotten
I'm now on a five day study break weekend. The timing is less than desirable because the cold weather finally found its way to Calgary; it's supposed to get down to -30 tonight, but the windchill is going to make it feel like -41. Tomorrow, the high is -26. Why, God, why? It's FEBRUARY!!!!! Even though I want to go work out tomorrow, I have a feeling I'll be spending most of the day inside. I'll be running outside to take the trash out, but that'll be it. Freezing my knickers off isn't one of my favourite pastimes. Ah, Canadian winters.
My God, I can't get over how bright this screen is, even though I've turned down the brightness.
I think I need to go figure out a new LJ background that doesn't look so ridiculous in this resolution. Ta ta, darlings.

Perfectly understand your reasoning about the piercing. Like you say, not worth it.
Don't freeze while you're working!
