A crisis averted

Last night, with great trepidation, I turned on my home laptop to see if I'd still get that "cannot locate operating system" message.

It booted up normally, although the wifi was (temporarily) out.

So relieved! I'll probably invest in a desktop now to replace that one, just in case the hard drive is going bad. The fan has always been funky (and loud) on the laptop, and we think it may have failed long enough to overheat the drive or a board and cause the crash.

Tomorrow night, I'll double check that all critical information is backed up. Danny has everything set up for backups on my machine, but you never know. Since I'm turning it off now, I don't know when the system will do the backups.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

And I answered truthfully!

Love that deege is only 21% gay!

You Are 83% Stereotypically Gay

You are quite the stereotypical gay person, my friend. You're practically a Carson Kressley queer, but not quite. A few slow people don't know you're gay yet, but everyone else does. Might as well flaunt it.

I'm in SUPER shape!

My closest co-worker at Popejoy Hall, Linda, was to go into surgery Monday for a hip replacement. She just turned 54. Probably she deteriorated her hip when she took a long walk around Europe about a decade ago...she even wrote a (somewhat odd, disjointed) book about it that was published 3 years ago.

Oh, oh...but THEN what.

Last week, her 80ish mother took ill. The next day, her mother's sister was found unconscious in her bathroom and is in the hospital. And to top it off, yesterday, Linda's 68 year old husband fell off of a roof, breaking both his wrists and his L1 vertabrae.

Needless to say, her hip surgery is postponed indefinitely.

Geez, I feel so lucky to be me!
