Bit of this, bit of that.
You know, it must be going around and be catching. Because I had a nice fantastically interesting entry last night. And I'd gone back through to edit it, when I was given the link to a puzzle site. I got so engrossed in the puzzles, that an hour and a half later I realised it was half past one in the morning, and I hurriedly closed everything down to go to bed. Including closing the window with the unsaved post. I can't even really remember what the post was about, other than the enchantments of the internet, and what it's like when that enchantment ends. Oh well, I'm sure if it's important, it will come back to me.
So, in IRC news, I've scored myself ops in yet another room. I rock. I've finally been able to get a hold of the newer version of the script that I wanted. So the Lemming and I spent a portion of the evening going through and transferring stuff over. It's all done!
In other news, Piper's glasses, I dunno if I mentioned it or not, but they were snapped. Unwearable. We were, thankfully able to get them soldered together by the lovely man at OPSM. So she can wear them for another month until her operation, and then I assume that after that, they're going to give her a new prescription, as she's had this one over a year, and a new set of frames is in order anyway, but the important thing is, that won't be until late june/july atleast. By then, we should be getting a bit more money. I hope.
I spent a small portion of the evening reading a story that a friend is in the middle of writing. I have to say, if that's how she writes all the time, she should be a writer ! It was fantastic. I can't wait to read more. It's bought to mind the idea of writing a story to keep myself amused during the rest of the pregnancy, but when you put my pitiful attempts next to hers, I'm not sure I'm game to even try heh. It's something I've been considering for a while now. I just wish I had the confidence and talent enough to seriously try it. Maybe one day.
In other news, I am not impressed with stupid Adobe and Mozilla. I keep having dramas where Adobe works fine, until Mozilla updates. Then it doesn't. SOMEHOW I eventually manage to find some way to fix it with some sort of adobe update, and it's fine. Until Mozilla updates again. And the cycle starts again. That happened again tonight. I am so annoyed at it, and the stupid thing wants a reboot to fix settings or some such crud. But I refuse to reboot right now on principle. I'm busy elsewhere. :)
