The status is NOT quo.

Just catching up. I'm so sorry, Cindy. Thinking of you and your son.

I'm playing a little Civ as Japan and England and America are being really annoying.

My 20 minutes of relaxation is up. Now I need to do computer support for awhile. First challenge, my wife is really angry she can't print, but she doesn't want me to look at her computer because the "printers are the problem". Printers seem fine so this will be interesting.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I question the actual "need" for you to provide support. If she's going to be such a bitch about it, she can figure it out herself.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

We went down to the National Mall for the 50th anniversary of the moon landing. Caught a bit of Adam Savage's talk about the build he and his crew did. It was very hot and Mr. S was being his usual self, but it was interesting all the same.

Cindy, I'm so sorry. Lots of love to you and your family, and especially to your son.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

What David said about the need, Gud. Your wife is operating from a position of pure emotion, which doesn't lend itself to anyone's ability to live up to her expectations.

Our wings are not tired.

Since DH and I are both computer tech types we have this deal where I can fix it my way, or he can fix it his way, but no I am not fixing things his way and he isn't doing it my way.

I fixed one printer by turning it on. The power strip it was plugged into was turned off. The other printer seemed just fine so I don't know why it wouldn't work without looking at the computer which I couldn't so I didn't. I also fixed an e-mail problem for the in-laws and also fixed a printer problem at my wife's office by turning the printer off and on again.

I have a headache from I think from dehydration, my back still hurts after volunteer work Friday and I think I broke a toe so I think I'm just going to relax with some more Civ. I think my lack of strategic resources is going to force me to attack America. That and I need to finish my material sheet for the cabinet I'm making. I laid out all the cuts I need to make, but I forgot to add dimension labels. Hard to click on the pieces and read the dimensions on paper.

I'm also wondering how England can keep sending these damn Buddhist missionaries to my cities. I might have to attack them too just to stop all the missionaries.
