New computer is in da house. There was no excitement in its' arrival.
Why? Because Apple fu@ked things up, but good. And here I was getting all excited from "new computer smell!" It didn't last.
So you spend $5600. on a new computer and Apple will migrate all the data from the old computer to the new one! Whoopie! Great! Not only that, but instead of taking two days for this task, they do it in ONE! Super-whoopie! Not only that but they don't do the migration properly and they FORGOT to "migrate" over 20 GIGABYTES of data, including ALL my FONTS, family photos and all my stock photos and clip art illustrations! Yeah, I called them and yelled and they said to bring back both computers. Each one weighs about 50 POUNDS. NO. I don't think so-PLUS I already went to the MALL on almost the last SUNDAY before Christmas.
Can you say; "NO PARKING?"
"Insane crowds?"
So Sam and I hooked up the old computer to the new one and I was able to pull all the missing data off of it and onto the new machine. Then I found out my fonts were messed up and all the serial numbers had to be re-entered for my software. Yeah...I cried! Sue me.
It's 9pm. I'm wiped out. I didn't get half the things done I wanted to this weekend, but at least my computer works well enough for now. Seems I lost one of my BLOG entries and ALL MY EMAIL IS HOSED-ALL 3 GIGABYTES of it. If you email me and I don't write back, don't take it personally. I'm workin' on it!
Oh yeah, the cats.
Gracie is running around the house, enjoying her freedom from being locked up in the guest room for over a month. Tonight I'm going to release Tunie and Nora after they get the last of their meds. It will mean a peeing festival, most likely, all over the house. So be it. I can always lock them up again and forget about them. Oops. I didn't say that.
Nicky, Cricket and Spencer are doing well.
Bob has a bad runny nose and is still coughing, though not as bad. I'm keeping a close eye on him. He has the most fragile health of all the cats. I hope he'll be better soon.
I'm getting better at pilling the cats. I will write something up about my technique-I like to call it; "Jam and Cram." I still have both my hands and all my fingers. Pretty good, considering I will have shoved about 100 pills down the cat's yaps in the past 10 days.
Lastly, I bought curtains. They were to cover up a large cut-out in the bedroom that's in the wall behind our bed. It's VERY drafty so I figured a good curtain would keep the room warmer. Sure. Then I bought the wrong color and they look like shit. I hate them. It made me cry. What the heck is going on? I can't even pick out a color? Now I have to go BACK TO THE MALL and exchange them. Ha ha ha! Shoot me now.
I've been to the Mall four times in less than a week. This is not good.
I'm done with my random thoughts. Now I'm gonna drag my weary self to pill the cats before I can take a hot shower that may or may not help loosen the stress-induced knots in my back, then I'll drag my flabby bee-hind to bed. Good night and I hope you're all doing better than I am.
