Against My Better Judgement

Dan and I just bought a GPS...the TomTom OneXL. I love it. But I have two questions.

1. I personally know two people who have GPS's who have named them. Is that normal? Should I be thinking of a name for my GPS? And if so, does anyone have any suggestions for a name? I was kind of thinking of Arturo. Or Howard.

2. The GPS didn't come with a case, and it's got a screen that looks sort of...sensitive. I'm thinking of knitting a cover for it, probably in felted wool. Am I a total yarn geek of the worst variety, or is that sort of cool? Or both? I really have no idea.

Also, on an unrelated note, I bought a fucking pair of capris today. I have long proclaimed my hatred of capri pants, but I tried these on and they were really cute and comfortable. I look tall in them. I mean, I am tall, but I am also round and usually I just look round without the tall. Will I have to re-form my opinion on capris? Are these just a terrible idea, or does it not matter how much I hate something if it looks good on me?
