One Futureshop saga ends, another begins

Well, I went to Futureshop on Friday to pick up my replacement notebook. And that is what they had for me. A crappy old gateway that actually had inferior specs compared to my old notebook. However, the big problem with it was that it was missing TV out. But, they didn't want to give me the lowest level laptop they had with that feature, so I managed to pay the difference for it which worked out to $150. Then I asked if I could buy a 3 year warranty with it, and of course, they saw cash and so now I have a 3 year warranty on a brand new laptop. Total price $500.

Also, more good News, on Sunday I went to the Hospital to get a doctor to look at my shoulder injury. And it turns out that it's actually just a pulled muscle. He gave me some exercises to help it heal faster and get stronger. So, it's not a joint problem like I was worried about!
Huzzah!
