Printers

It is very convenient to be able to print things at home, especially when my wife works for the church and has to constantly print things for lessons and meetings. It just amazes me how expensive inkjet ink cartridges are.

Thankfully the church generally either purchases them for us or reimburses us, otherwise it would be a real pain. I really hope I can get our main pc up and running again soon so that the wireless network will allow us to print from anywhere again.

Retirement

I worry a lot about retirement and the fact that I know I'm not saving enough right now. The problem is that I want to get my debts paid off before I focus too much on that. It scares me mainly because I know that there won't be any social security benefits to fall back on when I reach retirement age. Frankly, even if there were I'd like to be able to live a little better than that financially if I could. I just need to be patient and stick the plan and I'm sure it will all work out right in the end.

XMen: Latest Movie!!

Went to see it the other day. Not too bad but I won't be jumping in line to buy it on dvd. Some crazy characters and strange abilities and decent action sequences. I thought they did a good job of showing how Magneto and Prof X took their different paths. Kevin Bacon as a mutant was pretty cool too. And no, his power wasn't being a lawyer. Frankly, they made him so strong I wasn't sure how they were going to be able to kill him off without violating their own rules, but they did ok. All in all I enjoyed it but it wasn't the greatest movie I've ever seen. Pretty standard fare for the X franchise.
