In which I’m foiled. I was just about to install my new 120Gb hard drive into the laptop when the whole project was derailed before it could even get going. I lack a 2.5mm Allen wrench, first of all. And my Windows XP installation disc is missing. I could probably get the thing open anyway, […]
In which I’m still boring and you shouldn’t even be reading this. My new 120Gb hard drive arrived yesterday. I got it so cheap I can hardly stand myself! It came in an envelope instead of a box… I’d forgotten how tiny laptop drives are. It’s still sitting in its anti-static container, waiting to be […]
In which I talk about work. I was informed today that I have received a raise. A raise of one quarter per hour. Yes, a whole quarter. Per hour! That’s two dollars a day, if you do the math! I haven’t gotten a raise of less than a dollar in years. But then again the […]
In which there are a few things, and not a one of them is interesting. I had my first review last Friday: apparently I’m doing a kick-ass job. I asked for an ergo keyboard and got one the same day. Yay! Winter’s here this week. It’s about sixteen degrees below freezing. Today I’m wearing fleece-lined […]
In which I spend most of the day in front of the computer. Today I woke up hungry at the ass-crack of dawn, but I stayed in bed until nine or so rockin’ out to tuneage on the beloved iPod. I made eggs and toast and coffee for breakfast when I finally got up. Then […]
In which there might be snow. …COLDEST AIR OF THE SEASON ON THE WAY WITH SOME SNOW EXPECTED… AN ARCTIC COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE AREA SUNDAY BRINGING THE COLDEST AIR OF THE SEASON TO INTERIOR WASHINGTON AND OREGON. TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN BELOW FREEZING FROM SUNDAY AFTERNOON UNTIL FRIDAY AFTERNOON…WITH VERY COLD OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES IN […]
In which there’s music. Here’s the second rough of one of my new band’s demo tunes: [display_podcast] (And yes, Naomi, I had RB fix the ‘chew’ sound you didn’t like. I live to serve!) One of these days, we’ll get organized and record a third tune… and then learn enough material to actually do a […]
In which my face is numb. I’m revising my opinion of my new dentist’s office. They called me today and offered me a spot they had due to cancellation, and I went in at ten. The hygienist rocked; she cleaned half my mouth within an inch of its life. That ultrasonic tool works really well, […]
In which I had no idea what time it was. Yesterday I got my new gadget, my eBookwise ebook reader. It’s so cute! And so far I’m giving it a total thumbs up (although I already have a list of things I want in the next OS update, like: font face changeability, categories, and an […]
In which the weather went just plumb crazy. A massive storm rolled in this morning. We had 60-mile-an-hour-PLUS wind gusts, and the atmosphere was filled with tons of suspended dust. All the stuff on the porch ended up in a pile. Gramma went out and released our retired Christmas tree from its stand, and the […]
