My work computer has died a hard death. I think it’s the motherboard, but at first it looked like hard drive failure. So I put in another hard drive and got the same error: “Capable, but disabled.” It can’t use the HDD. I just rebuilt my work computer last week, meaning I spent a day […]
Every time I step into a coffee shop and see people sitting staring glazed-eyed into their sleek laptops, I think, “Why in the hell don’t I have a sleek laptop of my own with a wireless NIC card; why?!” One of these would do nicely. Oh yes. Or even one of these.
The weather is just nasty. It’s like a big, sweaty armpit out there. I step outside and instantly become all damp and sticky, and not in a fun way. Perhaps some swimming in the triangle pond is indicated. Speaking of the triangle pond, the Friday before last Tahmi and Cat came out, and we ate […]

My iPod is full. FULL. I have to take stuff off of it whenever I want to put new stuff on it. Suckage!
I forgot to tell you we went to Pella last Sunday to celebrate Brett’s mom’s birthday. Krista served surf ‘n’ turf: steaks and shrimp off the grill, and broiled salmon, along with a Caesar salad and corn on the cob. Yum! Then, oh man. Then: the pièce de résistance – she served an ice cream […]
I’ve been using Firefox exclusively, and I hate what IE does when I run it so much that I haven’t been bothering to check my templates for IE backwards-compatibility.
