Computer Upgrades, Siblings, and Bank Accounts

First off, an update to the previous post can be found here.

Friday, I rectified one of the few flaws in my current computer system by intstalling an additional 512 MB of RAM, bringing the total up to 768 MB. Now, I’ll be able to handle the next round of memory-hungry applications, starting with Virtual PC 7…whenever it’s released.

On Saturday afternoon I took in my first St. Edward sporting event of the year, a volleyball tournament in Hampton. My sister insisted that I see her play at least once this year; as luck would have it, I saw her first serve, point scored, and ace in varsity competition. Way to go, Kalie!

This weekend hasn’t been an unmitigated success, however. A visit to the ATM yesterday informed me that I have a negative balance in my account. How could this have happened, you ask? Well…I don’t check my account balance as often as I should (I keep track of the rough balance in my head between deposits), and I didn’t realize the last time I checked it that my August rent and rent deposit (totaling $450) hadn’t cleared…therefore, my bank account contains $450 less than I thought it did. Time to cash in on some capital gains.
