~Just Needed 2 Vent~

I don't even have a title for this one...

I sooooo don't want to be here at work. I need to be shopping for a new keyboard. Like a dummy I was drinking near my computer (and clumsy people just shouldn't do crazy things like that) and I wasted the gingerale I was drinking all over my keyboard! Okay, what really happened? I was experimenting....

Monday in the country

No new pictures today, so I'll share a recipe instead. Don't really know what I did today, except take a nap this afternoon. I did work on my raggy knitted place mats a little bit, but I don't really have anything else to show that I was alive today! I did get some pictures sent to Snapfish and two...

Busy day in the country

Baby came with me this evening when I went out to take pictures for this week's Photo Quest. This picture didn't make the cut for the contest, but I had to share it anyway.

Tips for Healthy Living Not Recommended by Any Credible Health Association

Q: I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true? A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it, don't waste them away on exercise. Everything wears out eventually, speeding up your heart will not make you live longer; that's like saying you can extend the life...

We’ll, time for a little update I suppose. Tonight we enjoyed watching a stage production of Peter Pan. A friend of ours played “Mr. Darling” and it was very cute. This is not a story I grew up with and I knew it only in a peripheral sort of way. I was surprised with how chauvinistic the roles...

There was a student who wanted to be admitted to the University. He was smart enough to get through the written test, a GED, and was to appear for the personal interview. Later, as the interview progressed, the interviewer found this boy to be bright since he could answer all the questions...

Keep Computer Cool

Wow, yesterday was some day. I was surfing away at the internet and my computer shut down. What is going on, I wondered. So, turned back on and checked my security, nothing going on there. So, I went back to surfing. Short time later, down again. Now, I live in Central Florida, but it still gets...

DEATH PORTRAITS!

Here's a picture I accidentally took of my desk with the dSLR Parachute got recently: Maybe I've become that person who stays out til the sun comes up. Maybe it's New York. I didn't get a margarita last night like I wanted. I told people I was going to a Cinco de Margarita party, but it wasn't that....

My external hard drive is busted

Actually, I'm not sure if it's busted or not, but my computer and laptop sure won't recognize it anymore. Every time I plug the USB cable into either the PC or laptop, and I try to open the hard drive from My Computer, the darn thing keeps telling me that it isn't formatted and that it should be...

Meet Max!

Bookie got a big brother Saturday night. Tim and I were wandering around Best Buy in Carbondale earlier that day and stopped by the Apple kiosk. I took one look at the keyboard design and said, "I've got to have this," (sort of jokingly). Tim said okay, and here we are, happily computing again....
