Wins and Fails for March

So anyone following my blog knows that I broke down last month and bought a Samsung Chromebook, which is a Netbook running completely off Google. After a month I can say that this was probably the best purchase that I've made in a very long time. I forgo ed my Spring Coach purse and bought this mostly because I needed a computer.  It is portable and more powerful than it looks. I use to game, watch YouTube, and mostly write. At first I was concerned that writing would only be limited to places with Wi-Fi, but there is Wi-Fi everywhere. It also has an offline function that allows me to write and then it will automatically save changes.

I miss my Mac dearly, but it still works and when I need to design something or need something more powerful. One of the few drawbacks of using a Chromebook is that obviously iTunes is not compatible. I spent far too much money to just let my iTunes account disappear.

Chromebook = Win

In my previous post I discussed how ear drops are equivalent to lava for a dog. I am officially declaring a fail on ear drops. As much as we love this dog, the amount of bites and bruises on us is just not worth it. She's just too smart. I made her an Oscar for "Most Dramatic Performance."

Doggy Ear Drops = Fail

One of my biggest procrastination vices is the Game of Thrones Ascent Facebook Game. I'm starting to get really good at it and found myself playing while asleep. Then I got Johnny playing.  If you love the Game of Thrones series, you'll love this game.

Game of Thrones Ascent = Win

I've let the world know that I've openly declared virtual war against "serial criminal crime families." Dealing with these people on a daily basis, you would think that I've had the best training in the world to get comps or upgrades. Well I failed miserably to try to get something on my upcoming cruise. When I booked, I missed a promotion. Then the week after I booked all the Carnival ship drama occurred and missed another promotion. I didn't ask for a refund, but something as a goodwill gesture. I ended accepting a "I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do."

Negotiator on the other side = Fail.
