hehe

I thought this was funny. I don’t *try* to be a geekette, I really don’t … and I don’t even see myself in that light… but, y’know, as in so many things in life, everything is relative / perception is reality.

hmm.

So, the midterm-from-hell, which was supposed to be — nay, *promised* to be — graded and returned today, was neither. I got very little garage-sale/moving-prep-wise done tonight, unless you can count watching two episodes of “Commander in Chief” and three episodes of “My Name is Earl” that had been accumulating on our bedroom TiVo. Simon …

it’s like Christmas!

Today, for the first time in more than three years, my old Sony Vaio laptop booted. This is the laptop I used during the waning days of my undergraduate degree and throughout my time at Brooks-Jeffrey Marketing in Mountain Home. And actually, now that I look at some of the files, it was also heavily …

two weeks and counting…

Office temperature check: 80.8Well, two weeks from this moment, movers will be loading up a truck and Daniel and I will be moving into our new house. YAY! I have done some packing, though not a lot, and I’ve been informed that we had to delay the yard sale a week (it’s now on tap …
