We're in PA. We have Internet, finally :) We will have phone too, as soon as we figure out where the phones are packed and open the box from Vonage.

Cyril and I cleaned out my office on campus today. Among other things, I found some $.34 postage stamps, a bottle of Advil that went out of date in 2003, and about $10 in change. We also brought home my books, papers, CD player, and mini silver fiber optic Christmas tree :) I haven't decided yet how many of my toys and the like I'll take to my new ( Read more... )

Big cheers for Cyril who packed his first couple of boxes today :) I packed a couple as well. Lots more to do, but it is moving along. We also generated a couple of full trash bags. Part of the reason packing is taking so long is that we keep junking stuff along the way. We're also doing a lot of "moving stuff around", since I don't want to pack ( Read more... )

Must remember not to answer the phone at 7pm tomorrow.

Some lady called trying to ask me questions for a survey. I said it wasn't a good time. She asked when was, and I said in the evening. She said she'd call back at 7pm tomorrow. Now I just gotta remember not to answer the phone ;)

I'm back on campus today. I have to send a transcript to my new uni, water my plants, maybe take a bike ride (my bike's up here), and so on.

He forbid me from using the existing computers when ( Read more... )

I installed a harmless looking MS update tonight for Windows XP, and now my machine won't boot. Waaaaaaah. The sweetheart and I have tried just about everything we can think of. I'm now burning bunches of stuff to DVDs, so I can reformat the HD if I we don't get any more ideas. It boots into safe mode, so I'm pretty sure it is that update which ( Read more... )

Cyril and I packed our first box yesterday :) I am trying to either pack or move the stuff off of this one bookcase that is seriously falling down. I can then trash the bookcase, and stack boxes in that corner ( Read more... )

Several years ago I was in Sears with a friend, and we were going down the escellator. This couple was there too, an empty handed one in front of us, and a person behind us with like 4 boxes. Well, the person gets on the escallator behind us, and drops a couple of boxes. They start walking down the steps just like a slinky! I look back, see them ( Read more... )
