Post automation - my idea of the steps I need.

No advice, please! (I know a lot of you are programming or sysadmin wizards who know loads about these things. I don't know very much about them, and I'm really wanting to make my own mistakes and see if I can work through this process by myself. Don't worry, if I get stuck, I will ask for help directly.)

( Post automation )

Whee! This will be fun.

Squee!

I have a new laptop!

It is a 15" Macbook Pro which is kind of perfect for me. It has a nice big screen which I like 'cause I am watching a lot of tv lately.

It is called Sally, after Sally Bowles from Cabaret.

The end!

Quickie update.

1. Dear God, it's cold out there.

2. The new Harry Potter is AWESOME. Just saying. As the rest of the internet seems to be saying: is it July yet?

3. I'm trying out Google Chrome for the first time, on the recommendation of some of the people I was hanging with tonight (hiii). Seems pretty cool so far, but I need to learn more about how it all works. (Or, anything about how it works!)

4. I completed a week of volunteering. Things are quiet there right now, so it's not very exciting, but I'm learning how stuff works there, slowly.

5. I'm discovering lots of new TV addictions. Hurray?

6. Also, I finished the hot pink lace scarf, which was for my sister's birthday. She loved it! Pictures soon.

7. That's it!

Current Mood: okay

Here is where I update this thing.

Today there has been lots of Eureka.

I'm also trying to catch up on The Big Bang Theory and I'm also thinking I might get to work on Leverage and White Collar.

Soooo, TV is on my brain. (I'm hoping to have stuff to watch on my laptop on the plane, should the in-flight entertainment be sucky, which it sometimes is. Ten hours is a long time to have nothing to do!)

I'm also doing a big re-organization of data because there is so much stuff on my computer. A lot of things are getting moved to the external HD. Space is at a premium! (At some point I also need to sort out the data on my old PC, so that I can maybe get rid of it.)

Not sure there is much else to report. I've started knitting this lace scarf which is testing my knitting skills!

And of course there is lots of prep to do for America which is all of a sudden in FOUR DAYS. (But I have booked my Heathrow Express ticket, so it's all good really.)

I should totally update the Lucy Viret blog, but I need a topic. Maybe I'll just watch another episode of Eureka while I'm thinking about it, or something.
