Monday
I went to work for about… an hour and a half. Mainly to check a couple of things that technically could have been saved until tomorrow, but I figured “What the Hell.” No biggie.

was here when I got back. She dropped in on her way home from running. Kate (from Cheers), Perry and Max (her husband and son) came over and spent the afternoon. Perry and I talked about comic books, movies, computers, Justice League, law and law enforcement, BattleMechs and lots more. And, as an added bonus: We had frozen mocha goodness, too.

I finally hooked up the G3 and monitor. I can tell that I’ve been assimilated into the Borg collective Micro$oft mindset. I kept thinking in terms of WIndows when trying to figure out where things were/”should be.” I was trying to set up the TCP/IP settings, but I couldn’t find them. Because they were right in plain sight! *braincramp* A few minutes (and a lot of pings) later, it was online. I haven’t tried using AppleTalk, but it can at least get to the Interweb.

And, here’s further proof of just how much of a geek I am: My computers are named after ships from Star Trek. I actually went to startrek.com and looked at the entire list of ship names from all of the series to find one for the G3. And find one, I did! (And I was verrrry close to naming it Botany Bay.)

Stray Toasters

  • Perry and I also talked potential Halloween costumes. I mentioned that I am considering going as John Stewart (Green Lantern from Justice League Unlimited). He said that if I did, he’d go as Hal Jordan. I’m in.
  • I saw a couple of fireworks this evening. Three.. three.. THREE days of fireworks! *sigh* Only in Utah.
  • Jedi Negotiation Tool
  • : Not sure if I told you or not, but I will do that drawing.
  • Thanks to my little sister, , I can have my cake and eat it, too! Or in this case: My Spider-Man and Lego. Click here.
  • A possible sign of the Apocalypse: MSN’s Slate Recommends Firefox over IE
  • I want a snack. But, I’m not sure what I want.
  • Jessica Simpson may possibly be Dazzler in X3. Hmm…
  • Snack = grapes.
  • From the DCG: Dawnstar, by Kevin Leung
  • Coach K is staying. *whew*

I should put some thought into getting ready for bed.

Namaste.
