I happened to catch that the other night on TV. I had to laugh at the boys who knew it was a Jimmy Kimmel bit.

Glad to hear you've been busy. Hopefully it's with positive things. I've not been super busy, but I'm behind on a few of the shows I usually watch. I have a bunch saved on my DVR. Funny thing is, I've been looking forward to watching them, but just haven't been in the mood for TV as much.

On a different note, since you fellas often talk about electronics and gadgets in here, I thought I'd mention that I got myself an Android TV box. I LOVE it! I've not ditched cable yet, but once I suss it out and figure out everything it can do, I just might cut the cord completely. The main thing I need to see is if I will be able to get any local channels. If not, I'll drop to basic cable. The rates are going down because of some new regulations here, so if I just keep basic, I'll be set. I may up my internet speed, but even with what I have now, I rarely have buffering or lag issues with anything I watch, and I don't have particularly speedy internet. The even cooler part is that the box didn't cost me anything out of pocket. I use a few earning sites online where you can get points and cash them in for gift cards. I try to keep my Amazon account with a decent balance from the gift cards so that I can take advantage of good deals. The next gadget I'd like is a tablet. I'd LOVE an iPad, but I hate that you can't add storage to them. I'm thinking a good Android one is probably more practical for me, and there are some really good ones now.

I'm alright today. Not a great day, but not the worst either. My doctor gave me a sample of a medication I've not tried before, so I took that for today's migraine. I'm not sure if it's one I'll ask for a prescription for, but there are others in the same family of drug, that I can try. If he can get samples, or if they are covered by my drug plan, I think I'll see if I can give something else a try. If I can just find the right one for me, I might have a chance of getting these miserable things under control so that I can have fewer days of being incapacitated by them. I wouldn't wish migraines on my worst enemy, though I sometimes wish that doctors who think they are just "bad headaches" would get just 1 really bad one so they could understand them better, and have a little more compassion for their patients. I'm lucky that my GP does seem to understand how debilitating they can be.

Hahaha! Just realized I've practically written a novella. Not sure why, but migraine medication always seems to make me chatty - even when the "chat" is typing.

it's fine i am not type of person that upset if i can't buy clothes.

This is why i prefer going to shops you don't see full selection that way you don't know what your missing when you see website it has full stock given that most item on sales are old stocks they want to get rid off.

I agree.  I would just assume going to the store, buying what's infront of me or doing without.  I'll probably find something I like even more!  HAHAHA

Exactly when you buy online it might look great on screen but actually see it with your own eyes it's different .
