New Computer
As Bruce said in his last entry, we have a new computer.
It's a dream. A freakin' dream! No more praying over our lap top to get it to stop blacking out on a routine basis. No more swearing and cussing because the Adobe Photoshop program punts out halfway through a scan. And no more waiting 25 minutes for a page to load because the operating system is so overloaded.
And a big screen. A big, normal screen. Not a tiny little lap top screen.
I so love this computer. I could sit here all day.
Sigh. To paraphrase e.e. cummings: "I thank you God for most this amazing computer..."

The Hospital Piece has reached the "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" stage - ie: it's just about done. I have one more little bit to finish, and then I have to write up an invoice, a commission/sales agreement, and a use and care agreement. And then I have to deliver it, if these yabos ever return my calls!
I'm really panicked that after all this work they will space out somehow and I'll have wasted a good part of the last seven weeks of my life.

We were both really exhausted yesterday. The first tornado alert of the year happened at one am and we were up a good two hours with the animals in carriers and the tiny TV on. No electricity, just the glow of the touchlights.
I have come to love touchlights. I know they are cheesy, but when your power is out and there's a tornado somewhere in your vicinity, trust me, a touchlight is a loveable thing.
