Currently packing like a mad thing- DH and I leave for DLR tomorrow! :banana: Very OT, but don't know where else to ask: Is there anywhere on DLR property I could get/make change? Get singles for housekeeping? It just occurred to me I'll need singles and it's a sunday so our bank is closed...

Will do! I'm pretty paranoid about having multiple backups *everywhere* in case of a disaster scenario. Ugh, yikes to the destroyed Asus. That's rotten. Thanks for the info about bit rot and how stored data can decay/disappear. Sometimes it feels like companies are making machines and...

Thanks for the helpful replies. :) Good to know! That's probably what I'll do if I go with the Air. I use it primarily for Microsoft Office, email, web and Adobe Photoshop/Lightroom. The Photoshop stuff is very basic (cropping/color correction/slideshow files in Adobe Photoshop Elements) and...

I'm currently using a mid-2012 MacBook Pro, but recently I've been tossing up whether I should sell it and get a MacBook Air. My "main" computer is an iMac (desktop) and the MacBook Pro is my "on the go" machine. I travel a lot for work (domestically) and at least x2 a year internationally. I'm...

Yes, absolutely. :thumbsup2 That photo that Glenn took of Maggie has been freaking me out. Makes me feel like either one of them is a goner. And I agree about only having cogent guests on Talking Dead from now on. That Marilyn Manson appearance was painful. Hubs and I were sure the show...

I loved the premiere! I only caught up on it tonight, as hubs and I were out on Friday. I think the show's really hitting its stride lately - from the last five eps of season 2 to this week's S3 premiere. I like the new development where Capt. Renard is actively working *with* Nick & Co -...

Not at Disney or Universal, but at other parks. What helped me was seeing my husband and/or friends ride a ride I was unsure about first, and once they were able to give me a description of what happened (and to see firsthand that they were perfectly fine afterwards!) it really helped with my...

My brother in law says "tater" salad. It drives me nuts. also: "git" for get, "youse" for you, "ax" for ask, "don't" instead of "doesn't" - as in "he don't do that no more" (AGGH!)...the list is mind-numbingly endless and annoying. His 7-y.o. son started saying some of these things...

Yep, me too. I have the Otterbox Defender in 'Boom' (Purple/Pink) and hubby has the same case in 'Hornet' (Black/Gold). I just got a new phone after switching to T-Mobile and decided to go with an Otterbox this time around. Last time I had a Spigen SPG case, which was good, but this time I...

So sorry to hear this. Wishing her a speedy recovery.

Here's the updated & current November Trip List: :cheer2:

Has anyone else pre-ordered the new pink Fitbit Flex? I ordered two Fitbits nearly 3 weeks ago: a black one for DH and a pink one for me. We'd planned to wear them during our upcoming vacation at DLR. DH's black one arrived last week, but mine's still on backorder. When I ordered it said there...

I've just purchased - but haven't yet received - the Nikon D3200. Pretty sure the wifi capability in the D3200 isn't inbuilt into the camera itself, but rather is a separate transmitter device that plugs into your camera. See more here: Shoot Wirelessly With Nikon. It's available on...

Thanks so much for those links - very helpful. Means I don't have to wait to see how my recently-switched-to-T-Mobile friend likes his service! :cheer2:

Thanks Carl and StitchesGr8Fan for your replies. Last night I went out for dinner with friends. One of them who lives in the same neighborhood as me is actually switching to T-Mobile today (!!), so I'm going to see what his coverage/experience is like and go from there. Fingers crossed...

Neat, thank you. :thumbsup2

I'm thinking of switching from AT&T to T-Mobile. Does anyone else here who lives in Chicago (or surrounds) have T-Mobile? What's your coverage like? Right now I'm with AT&T and my coverage (south subs) is awful and they charge like a wounded bull. :sad1: If I thought it was any good, I'd...

My parents came to visit a few years back and they stayed downtown at the Homewood Suites by Hilton on E Grand. Got a very reasonable price on their room. Be sure to check sites like retailmenot.com before booking as you can often get extra discount codes. :cheer2:

Ah, my bad.
