I can't remember everything, but I scratched a lot off my list! I read two books (Darkspell and Seize the Night), I'm halfway through Watchmen, and I started reading Twyla Tharp: The Creative Habit, Learn it and Use it for LifeThe first thing Twyla stresses is creating a routine that makes you feel comfortable and gets your juices flowing.

I thought finding kittens to adopt was difficult. Then I tried to sign up for the town's recycling program. Two phone calls, one email, one trip to the town hall, and one fax, and I still have not managed to talk to anyone who can actually sign us up and give us the damn green plastic bins. I currently have a form to fill out that is supposed to ( Read more... )

We've been playing a lot of LEGO Star Wars II recently. We received the game as a wedding gift, but had just been so busy with other stuff that we didn't actually start playing it until about a week ago. I was never all that much of a gamer until games progressed far enough that "dying" doesn't result in an instant "GAME OVER", and you can play ( Read more... )

Not too bad for an evening's work ( Read more... )

Let's see here. First off, BFG replaced my malfunctioning video card at no cost to me, other than the price of one-way shipping. I got the new one yesterday (most likely remanufactured, but it's functional so I don't really care - though this one doesn't have a pretty blue glowing fan...).
