On Sunday, Rob and I were sitting in the office I was debating getting a new fish tank for the living room and Rob was looking for upgrades for his new RC car obsession. I started getting irritated at my small ass desk 
and my BIG ASS monitor. That got me thinking, we are always talking about how we want to redo the office with matching desks and shelves to display some of our collectables. So I asked Rob how much we figured it would cost when we mapped out what we wanted from IKEA. $200. That’s it… I was planning on spending at least $150 for the fish tank. So I pointed out that for less then we were planning to spend on out individual hobbies we could do up the office. Monday off to IKEA we go and end up $30 under budget, and for once nothing weighed over 50 pounds. We got home and after uncountable times up and down the stairs and rob taking power tools to his old desk, we had a brand new office. You can see that Rob 
and I have different collectables. I have all my 
classic 1970’s Sesame Street music boxes and figures, he has skulls and NASCAR diecast cars. 
As a reward we decided to forego the diet for the night and ordered the pizza we had been craving for weeks. I have never tasted a pizza so good before in my life! Tuesday I called in sick to work. My allergies were kicking my ass but that I am sure was from all the dust we kicked up on Monday. It was a good day, it was warm we got to play with the RC cars and hang out. I stopped by mom’s on Friday and picked up her old dell and her flat screen monitor to replace my BIG ASS monitor. She gave me her old laptop awhile ago and I am loving having a computer in the living room J, now if I can get her to upgrade to a new Ipod I would be set. It’s good to have a gadget freak for a mother J.

The pizza did nothing to harm our diet!! I even had a real beer with lunch today! 
We also went to my new favorite fish store Forest Lake Pets and got 4 new fishes. (The ones I got at the end 
of last month died because I added too many at one time and was breaking in a new filter and it couldn’t keep up with all the fish) I got two boys and two girls to go with the two girls and one boy I left. So that means I have 7 guppies, a platy with a bent spine and cory-cats. That is all that will fit in that tank unless I upgrade to a filter rated for a 40+ tank and that is way too much current for a 10 gallon tank.
