Still at work too, but I did take a 2-hour lunch to go home & run.

Spike's Bitches 31: We're Motivated Go-getters.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I can't deal with laptops and their tiny little keys!
P-C is me! I also can't stand that little thing on the laptop keyboard that is supposed to stand in for the mouse.

Whaddayaknow? Amazon's got millions of socks! Woot!
Also, you non-laptop people are CRAZY!

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
sj - it is officially called a "pointing stick". Not a nipple or a clit as others have called it.
I adore George (my laptop).

Hey. New board.
I can't deal with laptops and their tiny little keys!
Again, you say this, but it isn't really true. I've gotten so used to the keyboard on my powerbook (and, before that, my iBook) that my hands feel lost on a full-sized keyboard. Whatsmore, the laptop keyboard gives me FEWER RSI issues - i can program on a laptop all day with no major pain, whereas the sides of my hands are hurting like a bitch right now.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Just remember, even though we prefer them in pairs, often they prefer to be alone.Oh, like me!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I use my laptop a lot for the convenience of being able to be way from the desk (or I did while it was working well), but I've never been able to transfer my touch typing skills from the full size keyboard to the smaller.
Easy enough to plug a keyboard into the laptop if I'm not balancing it on my knees, though.

No, no, I think he really can't deal with them.
Oddly, I'm having some issues going from an IBM laptop keyboard to a... what is this, an iMac? Anyway, this keyboard. Not sure why -- they would seem to be the same size. The keys are a little flatter... dunno. What I miss is my split keyboard. That was nice.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Uhm, please don't interpret JZ's request for reading material as an invitation to send us all your paperbacks. (This is not directed at La Bug, but to anybody in earshot.)
We've spent months culling books from our shelves to get rid of bookshelves to make room for baby furniture.
There are still dozens and dozens and dozens of not-yet-read books here.
She could certainly use a few trashy novels to bide her time, but honestly, all I've been doing for the last several weeks has been hauling books to her Dad's basement for storage, or donating them to Goodwill or selling them to Half-Price books.
In sum, Some Books would be good. Lots of Books (right now) would be bad.
Signed,
Tired of Hauling Away Books

Um...I said I'd pick a couple of my favorites. I'm not sending all six milk crates.
Besides, that'd be really expensive, and I'm kinda broke right now.
