And much of it will be left uncommented on because… because… because I just don’t feel like going into it. Some pretty terrifying, some of it ecstatically good (no, I didn’t get laid off or get a new job, no I’m not at liberty to discuss currently).
So on to the parts I *can* go into. I got a new computer! It’s *SHINY*! And NEW! And [vista aside] NEATO! And *SHINY*! And did I mention NEW! And SHINY!? Yes. The jack in the old one was starting to go & the desktop downstairs is dying a slow and painful death and, it just seemed like time. The one downstairs is more than six years old & the laptop was four, so it was probably time. Now to shift the old laptop downstairs, see if I can convince someone to let me keep the old one & install Ubuntu on it. No, I don’t know why I’m so obsessed with curiosity about that, but I am. So there.
Jaina Bee visited last night and this morning. As always, it was an excellent *FANCY* time. She brought the girls <a href=”http://www.amazon.com/How-Be-Explorer-World-Portable/dp/0399534601″>How to Be an Explorer of the World: Portable Life Museum</a>, so we had to do some things from that book. The little girls ran around like crazed monkeys, because that’s what they do. We had a lovely dinner. Eventually we put the girls to bed & then Jaina & I got to hang out and just talk about all sorts of things & get caught up. It was lovely. This morning we got up & P made pancakes & bacon, we had some tea, did a little coloring, & got kinda sleepy. We decided to get the blood flowing and went geocaching. Couldn’t for the life of us find the first cache. Tried a second cache & broke our not-finding streak! Finally! It’s about time! As fun as just finding the location is, it’s a lot more fun when you actually find the cache. We came home & it was about time for her to head on off to her next adventure.
P & M1 finished installing the new flooring downstairs. It’s SUCH a dramatic improvement & So Very Exciting! Hoorah! And now? Now it’s time to walk M2 to a friend’s house for a fancy dinner play date. She’s ready to go & I guess I’d better get that way too…
