Yeah, I hate not having the stuff printed out -- including all the details for the work thing on Tuesday. Stupid lack of home printer!

One of the first things I did upon becoming unemployed was buy a new printer (one that worked -- I'd been coasting on the availability of work printers!) because I knew with job-hunting and all, I'd need it for quick-printing resumes and envelopes and whatnot. That it came with the capability to print photographs and scan and copy is pure gravy that I'm finding unexpectedly useful....

I'm getting the pig!
Printers come to my house to die. I picked up a used one on craigslist a few years back. I saw that it worked at the seller's house. Didn't work at mine.... but it was cheap, so I didn't really worry about it much. I bought a brand new one a month or so later. It worked for about three months and then it died. One of The Aunts gave me a printer just this last year. She wanted a new one so she gave me her old one. It worked perfectly at her house. It worked *maybe* all of five times at my house.
It's sad, really. The poor printers never even had a chance at a happy printing life in my home.
Morning, all. We're supposed to reach high 80s today. I guess I should think about climbing up on the roof relatively soon to hook up the evap. cooler.

Nicole, Slayer of Printers!
I actually think I could print stuff out at the storefront accountant's down the street, so I'm still on the fence about going into the office. The real problem is, I have a 6pm flight, and it would take 15 minutes to get to the airport from my house versus say an hour from my office. Eh.

At least you only have to print it out of the kiosk when you check in. Air travel is so much easier with machines rather than people.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Timelies all!
Quiet day here. I need to run a few errands, but otherwise today will be spent watching tapes/DVDs and messing about on the computer.

I'm now sleepy and also hungry. These are not compatible conditions.
