We went and got a new case for Ted’s computer, as that appeared to be the best way to resolve the power button issue. He went up to work on it, sliced his hand open, and the power supply failed. I think the universe is telling us to stay away from computers for a while. *sigh* My desktop (the one via Myles & Sammy) is up and functional on a new surge protector and a much less-loaded socket in general, so we’ve got one desktop and one laptop online, which…

*mutter*
It’s flipping freezing in this house this morning, which I had extra time to appreciate because for some reason I woke up around a quarter to seven and at 5 after determined I really probably wasn’t going back to sleep, so I might as well get up. Sigh. Anyway, as far as I can tell the pressure’s gone off on the boiler again, and I’m not actually sure how to fix it, so I’m waiting for Ted to get up (which I hear him doing now) to turn the damned…
Computers

It sounds more like music if I cheat…

well…
Got some of what I said I’d do done. Did the beatsheet, which is nice, and went to the gym, which I really needed to do. I got 400 words written, which, the mathematicians amongst you may notice, is not actually the same as one thousand. But I also got stuff off to the artist for issue #6, and… Man, I’ve still got a lot to do. *headdesk* Oh, but on the cool up side, I got French language copies of COYOTE DREAMS today! It’s called A la porte des…
