		<description><![CDATA[Thanks again for your honesty, Sayward. I&#039;m sending you lots of love, light and hugs and hope, you will feel better soon. I would also throw you some cash for a new computer. I&#039;m reading your blog since 5 years and you feel like a good friend somehow. &lt;3]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When it rains, it pours!  Just breath in and take one day at a time! Go to discount tire and chose tires that have a 60,000 miles warranty. Most Japanese tires offer that and they don&#039;t cost too much either. 
As for your computer, get a refurbished one, they&#039;re a lot cheaper with the same warranties. I&#039;m an Apple user and even there you can get a cheaper Mac that is a demo model - just ask!  Once you have another computer, don&#039;t forget to backup your files - I learned the hard way too!!  As for the wine bar:  you&#039;re in a university setting with lots of young people who like to hang out and have a drink.  Do some verbal advertising  on campus and you&#039;ll be surprised how many will show up!]]></description>
