So the computer crap is all installed, and the blue haze in my study caused by extreme profanity on my part is starting to clear. I must say it's nice to have a spiffy new machine, and that it's all wireless and speedy. It's been a revelation to learn that the godawful retching noise my old machine was wont to make was not, in fact, an editorial

Congratulations on the new machine! *G* New computers are love. I'd use my desktop (or as I call it, my $2000 TiVo) more, but the space bar on the keyboard sticks and I'm too lay to get a new one.

That, and I adore the Precious too much. Something about being able to type from the recliner...

Thanks! I'm having lots of fun with it, now that the damn thing is set up. (Love your icon, by the way!)

Yay for a new, shiny computer! There's nothing like it. Enjoy the newness while it lasts, until the keyboard gets all gunked up with fluff and crumbs. *is a computer slob*

[ridesandruns]

Hee. I'm a slob, too. I'm trying to keep this one clean, but I know it won't last. I figure the dirt just makes it look well-used and loved. :)

have you made an introductory sacrifice to the Computing Gods yet? They like Cheetos small, squirmy bugs.

[ridesandruns]

Hmm. My cats have that one covered! (With hairballs, sad to say.) Hey, I'm gonna read your novel this weekend (my "weekend" is Sun-Mon.) and I'm very excited!

[xenokattz]

Hairballs will do ya. However, keep in mind that the Computing Gods are fickle with terrible tempers. Think Hera on a PMS day when the Aztec gods haven't made chocolate yet.

As to the novel--- um, please keep in mind that it's my first long, plotted fic and that I tax my beta to the point where she misses a few typos. Also, I'm addicted to semi-colons and sentence fragments. Uh... yeah... *hides*
