On a Clear Disk...

A week ago Thursday something happened that's familiar to many of you, but completely new to me. My laptop refused to respond and, when cycled, could not boot.

A trip to the Genius Bar at the Applpe Store later and it was off to Laptop Hospital.

Now it's back with a brand new, squeeky clean hard drive, and I get to run around reinstalling all my favorite programs. Sigh.

In more cheerful news, two good friends of mine and yours have signed on to LJ: [livejournal.com profile] kajafoglio and [livejournal.com profile] philfoglio. Kaja wonders whether there's a way to post here without having to type in html by hand, and I haven't a clue.

Say hello! Let them know why we hang out here!

And I'll try to do a bit more hanging out than I have.

I figured it out--I just had the settings wrong and was too busy complaining about it to notice. Thanks!

Downloading a helper aplication such as "Semagic" does wonders for posting to LJ. I'm a long time computer geek, so doing it by hand isn't really a problem, but I'm just as happy to not have to do it! Lots of clients are available here (http://www.livejournal.com/download/).

Good luck!

I've got a contract in Seattle beginning the end of the month

So I'm moving there soon! Will be leaving here 5/21. Wanted to touch base re. places to live? Will try to call later.
