Yesterday, my friend Betty and I moved about 4 facecords of split wood to my back deck. Phew, my body hurt so badly last night. I have to re-condition my body to 'wood motions'. But on the bright side, my back was pretty good. I think it's because I did stretching exercises before starting. Now I have a gi-mundus pile of wood to stack. But, I am happy that I have a good start. Usually, it's November before I have this much wood ready. I figure I need about 8 more facecords, minimum. 10 would be better. I felt very acomplished.
I just spent most of the day re-installing Windows XP on one of my laptops. Not because anything happened, but because I wanted to. I had a lot of crap stuff loaded, and it was starting to freeze too often. Not too much of a biggie, since I have most of the discs to reload. I just typed up all the programs I had, printed it so I'd have a checklist, and then - WOOSH! - empty program files and docs. Now I have 75% empty space, whereas before I had about 20%. I am not going to reload all my docs from the backup, just the stuff I use frequently. Everything will get put on my desktop computer.
derpface me.
I am in the office useing the broadband to download updates and some of the free stuff (like SmartDefrag - best defragger I have ever used). I was checking off the programs from the list and tried to download Adobe Flash using GoogleChrome. I got an error message telling me that Chrome already had the most recent update. So, I wondered if each browser needed to have a download. I downloaded using IE6 and it was accepted. A thought occurred to me, maybe that's why I never saw icons move with anything other than GChrome. I checked my userpics and - derp - yep. They move now. Slag, I'm such a moron! No one ever told me this! But, now I'm happy I can see moving icons. And they look crisper than before. derpderp
I will also be reloading everything onto laptop #2 soon. I bought a larger...memory...I think it's called. And I was going to try to install it myself, but when I unscrewed the panels underneath, I had no idea which slot it went into. There was stuff on top that didn't look anything like the memory replacement. So, I guess I have to take it to my computer guy to have him install it. Once that's done, then #2 will become my #1, since it has a 17" screen and will have the huge memory.
Tomorrow I don't have to work (WOOT), so I plan on doing some stacking. I also have to do more house cleaning, and I have bike pics to post to the WOW site. I should wash the truck. Sigh. Too much to do, not enuf time. Maybe I'll just go ride the motorcycle all day!
Edit - F*ck the wood. I just talked to Booperbiker and made plans to ride. See 'ya pjc!
