Money
Saturday 10th September 2005 11:25 pm

I seem to have had an expensive week. Wednesday I went to see The Importance of Being Earnest, which was for my Rotaract Presidents Night, so I can't really complain about that one (not least because it wasn't that much money). Plus it was really funny. I really enjoyed seeing it done live. It's been a while since I read it, so if they deviated much from the original text, I didn't notice. The butler was the funniest - purely by the way he moved. Algy was the best looking :)

Thursday I handed over large sums of money for guitar lessons. I need to give them more money for a guitar as well, but as they don't start for a couple of weeks, I'll wait till then. I'm looking forward to it, though.

Afterwards I sat down to watch stuff I'd videoed. The Dead Zone, I discovered, was the last episode of series 2 and Channel 5 are going straight into 3, so that's good. My video didn't quite manage to tape Lost though (at least it's repeated tomorrow), even though I re-set the date on Wednesday morning. At the moment it thinks the week goes ...Tuesday, Tuesday, Thursday..., which is unhelpful when you want to tape anything on a Wednesday.

So I've bought a new video. It's silver, so won't show up the dust so much. It definitely gets Meridian, so I can tape Monkeys in future (which is great). It's annoying though because when you set it to record you can't type in the info, you have to press the left and right buttons to change the numbers, which takes so much longer. But if at least acknowledges the existence of Wednesdays it'll be something. I considered getting a DVD or hard disk recorder but I'd still need a video to play my videos on. And I technically already have DVD and hard disk recorders - on my computer. Which will only work when it's turned on - which it isn't when I'm out.

I've also managed to sort out the main template for my WordPress blog. There's still a load of pages to sort out, but hopefully it'll get easier from now on. The stuff I was doing on it today wasn't helped by me looking at it in Internet Explorer and discovering a whole load of things that looked totally different. It looks identical on dad's computer now (and would on mine, except I have the font size turned up as default).
