Friday night ramblings - mainly computer upgrade stuff, chicken etc

[housepiglet]

Well, it's Friday evening again, thank goodness, and I feel a little hyper; so I thought I'd let it out in meaningless LJ ramblings :)

1. I seem to have spent most of the last week or so up to my elbows in the bowels of my computer's hardware and software. The PC has been very noisy for quite some time, and after I did something cunning to the

Friday ramblings of my own

[anonymous]

Hi HP,
Free Range chicken? Does it really taste all that different? A big thing in the States is "organic" this and that(Less preservatives so suppose to be good for you but a lot more expensive,so bad for your bank account).
A Pyrenean villa with Broadband...
Sounds nice...how much are the tickets?
Hope you enjoyed the chicken and have a good weekend.

Hello :)

Well the free-range thing is because of the terrible way the poor chickens are treated over here. This one was really organic free-range. I do think they taste better, but that's a peripheral benefit :) I don't get them very often: they're v. expensive here too.

If I ever get the Pyrenean villa with broadband you'll be welcome to come over and visit :)

My weekend was exceptionally slobby, but that's what I like to do at the moment, so it was good, thanks :) I hope yours was also. Chat Tuesday :)

Hi lovely piglet. I hope your chicken was both tasty and delicious. My doggies just finished racing around the room like crazy beings, and now they are resting. Dogs are weird.

I'm working on more mini-House-at-the-circus fun. Is House ever going to write another chapter of his fic? Or answer his comments on the first one?

[alex51324]

PS, the "Speeeeeeeeed" icon is cute. And I thought of another good thing about the most recent episode: we found out that the night janitor who wears his pants backwards likes House. I'm surprised we haven't seen any House-Night Janitor (though not necesarily House/Night Janitor) fic yet. (There hasn't been any, has there?) Maybe I should write some....or maybe you should write some....*somebody* should write some.

[housepiglet]

*g* I'm glad you like the speeeeeeeeed icon :) Thanks!

I've not seen any House-Night Janitor fic, but I think you should definitely write some :) Maybe you could work it into a sick!wilson (not that I'm hinting or anything... *g*)

Please write a sick!wilson - I love Porch so much: I go back and read it about once a week! :)

Hello beagly :)

The chicken was yummy thanks. I should think your dogs were racing because they could smell it. They're amazingly perceptive creatures.

I'm afraid House is positively cringing with embarrassment at not having replied to his comments yet. *kicks him* He'll get over there and do it this week. *eyes him malignantly*

ROFL to nr. 1. -- I remember those days when I was living in a hall of residence and we spent our days trying to fix someones computer... we finally managed to befriend a computer-geek who then did all the work for us. :-)
Anyway, I have a success-announcement too: I just managed (together with my mum) to get her highspeed Wlan DSL running in under 24 hours!! *dances joyfully*
Internet at HOME!! (even if it isn't mine)

*crosses all her fingers for your next installation-thingies*

hope the chicken was nice!

oh and btw: ICON LOVE!!!!

[housepiglet]

Hee hee - thank you! I love yours too - particularly the 'I Love English' one :)

[housepiglet]

Hello :)

Blasted computers! Wow, your mum's setup sounds very sophisticated. I've absolutely no idea how you'd go about getting something like that working :) You'll be able to play with it all the time when you stay over. I would, anyway!

Thanks for your crossed fingers: they seem to have helped :)

And the poor chicken was lovely :)

Love your icon, I'm impressed! You did good,not having let the computer win... computers always complicate things for their owners, it's a world-wide conspiracy. Hey good luck with winning the Lottery!

[housepiglet]

Hello there :)

Those computers are just out to get us. I'm absolutely sure of it! *eyes it suspicously*

Thank you for the good luck Lottery vibes :) First step, buy a ticket. Next step, retirement! Lol...
