Setting Up the New Laptop
Right now I’m typing on my new laptop. My old laptop, meanwhile, is chugging through the MoveMe process. Unfortunately the laptop magically turned itself off after about an hour, so I’ve had to start again. As I write this, it’s gone through about 28 minutes so far and it has 6 hours 45 minutes left … Continue reading
Two Techie Things
Thanks to mornhyland‘s mention of it via Twitter, I am now using Backpack. The requirements on the site say you need SP2 and Blackboard 7.2, but I don’t have SP2 and my school is running Bb 7.1, but it seems to work pretty much okay. I think the discussion board stuff isn’t getting downloaded, so … Continue reading
My New Computer
So the other day…I bought a new laptop. I ordered it from Dell, with whom my school has a discount program, and with whom I’ve been happy for many years. I currently use a Dell Inspiron 1150, which is quite serviceable but is starting to fall apart in little ways. It also has a crappy … Continue reading
Black Contacts
Today at GenCon I bought colored contacts. Black actually. Never having worn contacts before ever in my life, it took me 45 minutes to get them in. A nice lady gave me a bottle of solution to keep, and passed along some tips for putting them in. Fortunately the hotel sundries shop had a $2 … Continue reading
Saturday Night and Morning Pancakes
We were supposed to go to a Buffy singalong tonight, but my brilliant sister-in-law didn’t go to buy the tickets until Thursday night, and of course they were sold out. So we’re going to see the Harry Potter movie instead. I also finally redesigned my Sidekick 3 skin; the first one came out really bad … Continue reading
Pride
I interpreted Capital Pride 2007 today with some very talented co-interpreters. Now I am tired. There are some website things I need to work on but I will do that stuff tomorrow. It was fun, I got this great shirt (a parody of this one), I saw cool people. I love Pride.
New Sidekick 3 Skin
New Sidekick 3 Skin, originally uploaded by woofiegrrl. When I bought my Sidekick 3 after we got back from Alaska, one of the first things I did was buy a new skin from MyTego. I had gotten my previous skin from them as well, it was a rainbow skin, and I was very happy with … Continue reading
Swimming Class
I don’t think I’ve mentioned this yet, but I’m starting a swimming class! This actually began when I found a very pretty swimsuit, and I wanted an excuse to buy it and wear it. I looked into water aerobics classes at my local recreation center, but they were over $200 so I figured I would … Continue reading
Enchanted Forest Cat’s Meow
Enchanted Forest Entrance Castle, originally uploaded by woofiegrrl. My Cat’s Meow piece came while we were in Las Vegas! This is the entrance castle at the Enchanted Forest, which I wanted to memorialize with a My World piece. I collect Cat’s Meow pieces, but this is the first one I have commissioned. It was pretty … Continue reading
Flowers Glitch
I was quite surprised to get an e-mail this morning saying that my flowers were being delivered today. I promptly called the company and asked; it turns out that when we called to cancel yesterday it was too late to really cancel the order, so they had to let that one go ahead and they’re … Continue reading
