Lazy Sunday
Not a lot goin on today.
Mostly I alternated between reading American Gods and watching various things on TV. I forget what the movie was, but it was a movie I hadn't seen and sorta wanted to, so I let it play while I curled up on the sofa. It wasn't a very good movie, whatever it was.
At times I wanted to work on my web site, but by the time I actually sat down at my computer, the ambition had left me. I think part of it is that my current setup isn't conducive to productivity. The desk sits next to the bed, with barely enough room to stand between desk and bedframe. I can either sit on the bed, propped up by pillows with the keyboard in my lap, or sit on the edge of the bed with the keyboard on the desk, and the bedframe digging into my legs. I did at least find my wireless mouse, so the mouse can join the keyboard on the bed (that just sounds plain wrong)
My laptop may work, but I'm not certain. The hard drive connects to the laptop with a little connectory bit that takes the 30-odd pins on the drive and lets them fit into a blade slot. I took it off the drive because the USB enclosure doesn't need it, and I knew where it was up until I moved. I've looked through every box it might have gone into, but have thus far come up with nothing. I tried searching online, but without knowing what to call it, I'm flooded with false hits, unable to narrow it. Admittedly, I haven't looked very hard online yet.
One common thought today was "If the laptop worked, I could chat from the sofa while watching TV" Another common thought was "I want a Wii." I'll likely end up picking one up in December.
I'm excited for Thanksgiving. It should be fun. :)
