It's all about me !!

i had absolutely nothing to say today....... i have been busy being "geeky" loading the new Microsoft Outlook (cause without it my 2007 word wasn't working right) ......... and i just didn't think anyone would be very interested in the trials and tribulations of new software... or how much i LOVE the new 2007 office... (now that it is up and running)

Then i went to kaya's blog ..and lo and behold she had this question thingy she wanted everyone to answer in her comment section......... welllllllll i stole the questions (like a thief in the night) left her a comment saying i was being a royal bitch and stealing them (now is it really stealing if you tell the person you are stealing something?? ) and brought them over here............
