Technology
Once again I've been meaning to post for awhile. I didn't manage to do so before our trip to North Carolina. There wasn't too much to talk about. I finally decided to take HiP (the laptop) into the shop to figure out why the battery was occasionally not charging. At first they got me a new cord (and I correctly remembered that the cost was ( Read more... ) -
Dinner and a Show
I had a grumpy week after my last post, mostly because I didn't feel like I did much besides work and then sleep in the afternoons. That was probably partly period fatigue and partly my fault for staying up late reading ( Read more... ) -

Books
It took me surprisingly little time to go through the books at the branch of the library I'd chosen for this library visit. All together I was only there an hour and a half; I think I rushed a bit.
