yeah, I am kinda ignoring my data issues at the moment. a guy at work is getting me a program to try - If I get that soon I will pass it on to you. Otherwise, I need to go to the trusty mac store adn just pay up, but I think I'd like to know if a tax refund is coming before I do that.
Gwen: Demon, OK? The whole nine—cloven feet and horns and teeth. He wasn't wearing lamé though. Lorne: Yeah, the evil ones can't pull it off. It gets camp.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Random health news - apparently, taking Ginkgo biloba and ibuprofen at the same time can result in "Fatal intracerebral mass bleeding."
Damn.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Driving a truck, especially on narrow-ish streets can be nervous-making at first, but eventually you get a sense of how much space you're taking up and it gets a lot easier.
When I drove the U-Haul to move to NYC, it turned out I was moving onto a very narrow street. I totally nearly took someone's mirror off. Oops. That did not get easier -- the beginning of the drive was wide DC streets and then highways, so it was more or less OK, but then I had to go through the tunnel, through Manhattan, and on to this narrow street. Traumatic!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I've driven a U-Haul van in Manhattan once, and it was once too much. I need big wide suburban streets for those things. (And I learned to drive on a full-size van, so it's not like I was unfamiliar with the car as such. Just...not in Manhattan. Scary.)

AND they gave me a "free upgrade," so I was driving a larger truck than I even wanted.
Never again. Now I hire movers.

Otherwise, I need to go to the trusty mac store
What I will say about the trusty mac store and my recent hard drive loss is that they were really, really realistic about what they could and could not do for me. In the end, they didn't charge me at all for about 6 hours attention. Actually getting data off (if what were possible, which is was not) would have cost, but they didn't give me false hope in exchange for the chingching. I was graterful.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The drive from Allyson's to Colin's isn't bad, but the drive down his driveway to the street is the sort I'd hate. I make Colin back my Jetta out.

It just sounds easier to me to hire a mover, get it all done in a couple hours, in one trip. I can move everything I can lift into the place at the asscrack o' dawn, and then have movers take the heavy shit.
t unsolicited advice If you are going to have movers anyway, as long as everything is boxed, just have them move the boxes. Especially books which are heavy.
If you want the number of the non-homosexual, non-expensive, non-ripper-offer movers we used, just let me know.

what's wrong with gay movers? They might be helpful in choosing paint colors :)
