Something a little different

Since it’s only been a few days since I last posted and I don’t really have that much going on that I can talk about, I’m just going to discuss some random things tonight.

First, I’ve decided that I will take on the project of finding free computers and computer parts wherever they are available, and use them to build whatever I can build with them. Then maybe I can sell them on Craigslist for $20 or something. They’re going to be very low-end machines. And I’ll most likely put some distribution of Linux on them, so that the user will get more out of the limited hardware resources than they would with Windows XP. They’ll be great for internet and word processing machines. Not much more though. But I’m sure someone will find a use for them and maybe I can make a little money in the process. If not, that’s fine too. I may end up just giving them away for free to someone who can’t afford a new computer. So if you are reading this, and you have an old computer laying around send an email to jason.crabtree@gmail.com and let me know what you have.

The second thing I want to talk about is Moxie. She has begun to squeal, even scream, when she is really excited. It started out as a loud cooing and has become an actual little girl scream. It’s ear piercing, but adorable and hilarious at the same time. I had no idea that kind of sound could come out of a baby.  Clarity, fitting to her personality, just sits there and makes soft little cooing sounds. Until she decides she needs to be held, AGAIN. Then she can scream with the best of them. Gosh, what a drama queen.

And finally, I want to remind everyone that this Friday is January 18, 2008. Yes that’s right. 1-18-08. And we all know what that means, right? Cloverfield of course! It hits theaters this Friday and Emily and I are giddy like a couple of schoolgirls at a Hannah Montana concert. J.J. Abrams, your trickery has won us over. We are so excited to see this movie. I called up my mom tonight to see if we could bring the babies up to her house on Sunday for a couple hours whilst we go see what this movie is all about. Of course she’s fine with it, any excuse to have those babies in her arms.

Anyway, those are my thoughts for tonight. Have a pleasant week.
