Default Very Good News

Well I came home from Florida today to find that my cousin (mac_forever) found something that was very important to me. Before I get to that thought I would like to make clear that I am not offically 'home'. I just got back from the airport about an hour ago. I am now at my local library posting. Yes, it is hell. But I am only making a few posts as I need to get back home and get rested up to leave very early tomorrow morning for a soccer tournament in California. Were driving the not so bad 5 and 1/2 hours...so we have to get up early. I will be home about July 7th or so. The reason that I am at my library posting is that I am going to wait until I get home and get back from California to re-install XP. When I put in my new mobo and cpu about a month ago, I couldn't find the XP cd or key...so I borrowed vee_ess's copy for the 30 day trial. That lasted me up to th exact day I left for Florida. But now that I am home, I can re-install it thanks to my cousin. He house sat for me and found my XP cd along w/ the key. My face could hardly hold the grin it made. I am in such a good mood right now because I was afraid for a while that I would have to keep re-installing every 30 days. And I have alot to re-install, and not so much time. So that's what I wanted you all to know about, and well...I must go now. I need to be getting home for dinner and get rested up for getting up early. I will see you all in 4 days and hope that you all have a very good Independence Day. Farewell.

Well I should be up and running for good now. Just re-installed XP hopefully for the last time and partitioned a couple of gigs for safety. I'll keep you guys upated on how it comes or how it goes.
