logging in from work

yes my computer is still a very expensive paperweight. My IT friend who is going to help me (I hope) was having a crazy family weekend and couldn't sit down with me. Hoping tonight. Been talking to others, yeah apparently Win32 is a bastard to get rid of.

Ain't that special since all my exams and what not are on that computer. Luckily I do have back ups (now to find the latest disc) but i'll have to spend way way more time at work since the netbook doesn't have a cd rom.

thank god the flashdrive wasn't in the desktop when Alphonse got sick. After this I think I'm going to get a large flash (and a hub for everything) and use that to back up the stories I'm actively working on. Burning the whole thing to a disc is great but i can't do that every night.

At least I used the offline time to clean up my computer desk and the bedroom closet. I lost a lot of shoes. the mice ruined a few pairs and all of my goth Abby boots dry rotted. OMG. I'm so angry. decided to get rid of many more shoes while I was at it. and have a garbage bag filled with things that need to be washed the laundromat's hottest water in case a mouse was in them.

Seem to still be in the kitchen so I tried to run down the landlord again. Got his wife. 'Yeah we live in a field so field mice always get in. Don't you have a cat?' ....

speaking of him, I was groggy this morning and forgot to shut the bedroom door (he's not allowed in) He was on my bed in under two minutes. brat.

So hopefully by tonight I'll be up and running but if you still don't see me, don't be surprised. I may have to send my computer out to be cleaned

author's chat

also guys I'm doing a somewhat truncated author's chat at circletpress. So if you want to see a little of my pro work pop in and talk to Jana for a while.
