Im procrastinating still

Im procrastinating, and yet having a deja-vu moment. I swear I have had this blog entry once before. I didn't feel like opening the laptop at home, and when I tried it here at the station, the screen wouldn't turn on, so the connection is loose again. I double secured it with tape this time, I guess with the cold & warm of the days, the tape isnt holding up too well. It still doesn't fix the problem permanently, but I just dont have the energy to crack the case again and fix. Im lazy, leave me alone.

I finally came to an epiphany with my home computer. Before going to Corpus Christi this last time, I had bought a nice digital camera that wasn't compatible with Windows 2000 (my operating system of choice) but was compatible with all others. I want to keep my Windows 2000, but I want something that would operate the camera software. I thought a dual boot would suffice with Windows ME, but there are afew issues with that that I dont want to even try. Im just going to reinstall the newer hard drive with Windows 98 & Windows 2000 as dual boots. All my software will be compatible with both operating systems so this should be good. The other thing I will do is bring in the desktop here to work & install all updates & programs that take too long to download at home.

Lets see what happens.

I screwed up the laptop something bad

A few weeks ago, I got the overwhelming urge to increase memory on the laptop & bought some memory. I cracked open the access door on the laptop and put it in. It wasn't recognized. I then realized that the memory I took out was one of those two-piece units found on old laptops & cracked open the case even more to get to the memory on the underside of the motherboard. Bad move.

I destroyed the retension pins on the monitor hook up on the motherboard. Thats not something you wanna do, or try to replace. There is no replacment. Right now, I have it pieced together with black electrical tape and dumb luck. Im going to make a full time permanent fix for it when I get home.

Right now, I am using the talk set computer to do todays entry. Faster, yes. Nicer, yes. Not my laptop. That sucks.

Voyeurs...

Maybe I've been watching too much Food Network

I wanna make ravioli. Damn you Alton Brown...

Pasta mongers...

You can never be satisfied with what you have

I guess its human nature to want to improve on a good thing. Kinda like ice cream, someone made vanilla, then someone put strawberries in it to make it better. I think the same way with the Mustang. There are many things I wanna do to the car. Some are expensive and others are within my price range.

I want this first.

Mustang owners...

April Fools are out in force today

It stands to reason you should take anything told to you with a grain of salt, or a salt lick or something loaded with salt. It started pretty early today with people pretending that Pres. Bush was to make a visit to El Paso. I caught on early & Im just going with the flow. It's sad to watch the affected people just go nuts trying to confirm the news. I don't have the heart to tell them it's a joke. Besides, they aren't hurting me... yet.

I think I am just going to not do anything like check emails, go online to chatrooms or generally trust people's stories. Im gonna lay low & miss most of today. Talk to you all tomorrow.

Fools...
