General Sometimes my beloved fiance just pulls these little gems of wisdom out of nowhere. For example, this one.
“Wouldn’t it be crazy if they found oil on Mars?”
I laughed so hard! I’m pretty sure he thought something was wrong with me. Now, I am not even going to get started on how unlikely it is that oil is on mars, much less our likelihood of finding it or how impractical it would be for us to even utilize it if we did.
I am always amazed at how Justin’s mind works!

Technology That’s how long it took to restore an HP laptop using HP discs.
Mind you, that’s after ordering the discs and waiting two weeks. Then, of course, those discs didn’t work, so I had to call HP, who had apparenlty sent me the wrong discs. So, they “rushed” me the right discs, which took another week. They finally came today, and the lovely six-hour restoration process could finally commence.
Now, how long will it take me to uninstall all the trial software and bloat on this thing?
P.S. Yeah, I know I should have done a clean install, and I certainly had the means to do so. I guess I just had to go through this painful restore process once in my life, so I would be absolutely confident that it’s not worth it. 
P.P.S. The HP laptop is one that I am giving to a friend. It used to be Justin’s, before he got his new tablet.
