Last night, I noticed that my laptop's power cord was starting to go bad. At times, it will act like it's unplugged, and my laptop won't charge. It's not completely gone yet, though, as a little jiggling or unplugging and plugging it back in gets it going again. Well, this is unacceptable. I can't wait for it to be completely bad to start thinking about a replacement, so I ordered that this morning. It should be here in a few days--I hope the current cord lasts until then. I also ordered one of those iPod dock/speaker setups, because I've wanted to be able to listen to music in the shower since I lived in Ames and saw that someone else had a similar setup. That will take a little longer to arrive, but that's okay. I still have no idea where I can put it in the little basement bathroom. There's not much room in there that isn't taken up by the fixtures.
And now for an update. I mentioned this long ago, but I'm finally getting around to jumping through the last hoop for going to classes at the University. I'm going to the student health clinic after class today to fix the problem of the records for MMR vaccination--by just going ahead and getting the shots again. And of course, the prices mentioned in that post have gone up. They're now $190 for getting the shots again, and $367 for the test to prove that I've already gotten them. So, as I said before, I'm going with the cheap option and getting another round of the shots.
