DVDs

It turns out the CD/DVD drive in my laptop is acting up … again. I’ve had this thing replaced two times already, so I’m starting to think it’s either me or the way this thing is made. I’m choosing to blame the manufacturing process because I haven’t used it but one time since the last replacement got completed.

I went to burn the DVDs of pictures for my ASBC flight mates and it turns out I couldn’t. After calling around a little bit trying to find someone in town that would let me come over and burn disks for a few hours, I realized everyone I know is either out of town or has relatives in town this weekend. That made it very difficult and I ended up just going to work where I know there are DVD burners. I wasn’t the only one there, so it wasn’t bad at all.

I didn’t realize until just the other day that I have 4.5 Gb of pictures and videos to send to everyone. It took me six CDs to move them from a laptop to the computer otherwise I would have just burned everyone a CD.

While I was gone at ASBC, I had two packages delivered here. They were both signed for by the lady in the office and now they are missing. No one in the office seems to be able to find them. There is one room where all the packages go and UPS says both of them are there. I ordered them on Amazon, so I can get a reimbursement from Amazon or from UPS, but I really want my apartment complex to pay for them. I have the signature of the people in the office on the delivery slip, so it’s not as if the package didn’t get delivered. I’m going to call the main office sometime tomorrow evening and talk to someone about this.
