Painfully slow
Jane Ullah @ January 30, 2008 # No Comment Yet
The computer’s specs at the lab are anemic. For hard drive space, it has a whopping 10GBs. Memory (RAM) is an anemic 256MB thus ensuring I can only have 2 windows (one for Internet Explorer and the other for Windows Explorer for file browsing). It is both good and bad that this is so. [...]

Life’s lessons
Jane Ullah @ January 27, 2008 # One Comment
So, in the vein of savings, retirement and good old financial planning, M & I hashed out a budget. Essentially, it hinges on us staying at our current residence. Some changes are occurring at the residence which should lessen bills. I’ve kept a stranglehold on the thermostat so that our collective heating bills have been [...]

Movie-palooza
Jane Ullah @ January 27, 2008 # No Comment Yet
I’ll start off by writing about the latest movie that M and I saw together:Saw IV. He’s seen the very first installment, I believe whereas I hadn’t seen any previous version of the Saw Franchise. To say I was disappointed would be putting it lightly. I was so underwhelmed that I would have demanded my [...]

I have a confession to make…
Jane Ullah @ January 23, 2008 # One Comment
I am an unabashed pepper/salt/spice addict. There, I said it. I love my spices and M knows this all too well. lol. The purpose of this declaration is to wonder out loud why on earth restaurants bill items as "spicy" only for it to turn out sadly un-spicy. In analyzing my love for spices, I [...]

A little cramp in my style
Jane Ullah @ January 22, 2008 # One Comment
Someone is having a little procedure done and surprisingly, CS didn’t take egregious advantage of it!! I was really happy and a little deflated even that I didn’t have anything to bitch about now. lol. Ah well, I had the most scrumptious lunch with M… pizza!! To be specific, garlic bread pizza. Not the healthiest [...]

Feeling prolific

Happy MLK day to everyone! I’m at work as I knew I would be. I felt a bit guilty at not going in over the weekend. Still, I think it wasn’t a bad thing to lay off working all weekends all the time. The good part about working on holidays though is the laid back atmosphere. [...]

Savings, Retirement and Wordpress woes
Jane Ullah @ January 20, 2008 # No Comment Yet
Of late, I’ve been reading a lot of personal finance blogs and I could kick myself for the information that I’m discovering that I wish I’d known before. Nevertheless, it is not too late. I am turning 23 this year and I got started on my first ‘real’ job. My job automatically contributes the maximum [...]

Figuring out issues
Jane Ullah @ January 19, 2008 # No Comment Yet
For weeks now, I’d noticed that my TinyMCE writing toolbar had stopped appearing. I dreaded the worst: my site had been hacked into, etc. However, I hadn’t received any emails from my webhosts so I decided to have a look around inside my brain. That was when I remembered that I had bungled what would [...]

Feeling more positive
Jane Ullah @ January 18, 2008 # No Comment Yet
It’s amazing how things seem not to be a big deal anymore once viewed or experienced through the eyes of others. Apparently, my previous posts pertaining to financial matters seemed to be all “gloom and doom” which was far from my intent. After several exchanges with my esteemed father and loving husband, I think that [...]
