a variety of detaily things

Since we paid off the Jeep, Ted called up our insurance company and took the Acts Of God coverage off it, which will save us approximately a jillion dollars a year. Which is quite a lot! Yay!

There are exciting goings-on at my work. Our parent company merged with another company a couple months ago. People have been laid off. Evidently they’re doing one on one meetings next week (while I’m there), and everybody in the office is *incredibly* nervous about it.

I got my batteries for my computer. I also got … ok, look.

If I say to you, I need a battery charger for a (whatevertheserialnumberis) battery, does that not sound as if I’m looking for a separate unit, the express purpose of which is charging batteries?

Because what Sony sent me is a battery charger which also plugs the computer in. There is no way to charge a battery with it without having the battery in the computer, which is exactly not what I wanted; the whole idea was that I would have a charger so I could charge the battery I wasn’t using.

*Furthermore*, this unit DOESN’T EVEN FIT INTO MY COMPUTER. I told the guy very *specifically* what type computer I had, and that it was several years old, and he sent me a unit for a newer model Sony Vaio 505 which has a completely different interface method. YARGH. VERY frustrated! So now I have to send the stupid thing back, because it is in *no way* what I needed. :P

Hm, rejection letter from SCIFICTION, which I expected a couple weeks ago. And Mom’s brought by her copy of the manuscript, so I can do those edits tonight. Yay!

And I think that’s about all I’ve got to say now. :)
