Out Of Ink…Again

I’m so upset with my printer. It seems as if that thing drinks ink. I only printed about 20 pages with the cartridge that I bought and I already have to buy a new one. I tried buying the ink refills and filling the cartridge but that made a huge mess. Even after using a whole bottle of refill the print is coming out in a light grayish color. Ugh! That’s more money down the drain.

I guess I’m going to have to buy another cartridge. I’m thinking it might not be such a good idea to buy those refurbished ones. Hopefully I can find a new Dell cartridge at an online auction site. I usually get my ink from online auction sites because they’re much cheaper. I hope I get a good one this time.

Time For An Android

I want a smart phone. I think I’m the only person in the world who doesn’t have one. Actually, I know that isn’t true because most members of my family don’t have one either. But I’m more tech savvy than them, so that’s unacceptable. The only reason I haven’t purchased a smart phone is because I don’t like to talk on the phone. I thought there was no point in buying a new phone if I rarely talk on it, but I do realize that with a smart phone there are so many other things I can do.

If I do decide to get a smart phone it will probably be an Android phone. I really like those a lot. I was checking out some of the features that the htc desire hd have and I really like that phone. I’ve never even considered getting an HTC, but it’s actually a great phone, so now it’s on my list of possibilities.

Stop Eating Here!

I really hate when some members of my family come over for dinner. These folks are something. I’m not exactly sure what to call them, but I know it’s nothing nice. I think selfish would be a good word to describe them. They come over for dinner, don’t cook or help clean up, stay until really late, and then ask to take a plate home with them. Who does that?! So rude.

Another thing they have been doing lately that bugs me is stealing kitchen utensils. I know that sounds crazy, but it’s true. I mean they don’t blatantly steal them, but they take them. Usually when they come over for a meal to go they will take one of the kitchen utensils with them to eat in the car. We’re missing a few spoons, a couple of knives, some plates and countless forks. Smh. Horrible manners!

I Shop For Deals!

I think the Internet has really made me a cheaper person. Now that I know I can save a lot of money by shopping online, I have to compare the prices of every store that sells a product before I will buy it. I do that every time I buy something no matter how much time it takes. I just want to be able to save as much as I can during these times when money is a little tighter.

I know I’m not the only person who shops this way. It may seem a little drastic, but you save a lot in the end. I plan to use this method no matter what I’m shopping for. If I ever decide to get my license and get a car I will definitely use the Internet to shop around for cheap car insurance too. I’m all for getting a great deal!
