It's easy for me to convince myself that no one I know would kill me.
I'm sure some have had the urge, but as long as I stay on the good sides of ita and my buddy Mark I'm reasonably confident of having better than even odds if it comes to that.
Cass, I will try and remember when I get home to check mine -- I have a bagless, and it sucks in the good way, quite a bit. It made me vacuum more, because of the palpable difference -- not just in the carpet's looks, but the amount of dust in the air.
and it makes me look at Ruby and say, "Will you STOP SHEDDING?"
Change the name, same old tune... I could make a new cat every time I vacuumed but who needs another puppycat?

Excellent.
one of my clients was supposed to get me stuff today. I spoke with her at 4 and she told me some of it was ready. I told her to send it to me as it was ready to not wait to send it all at once. Now at 6:10, do you think I have ANY of it? of course not. WTH?!?! Apparently I will be working on it all weekend. BASTAGES!
Thank goodness the U doesn't work weekends. Or Fridays. As the thing I stayed late at work for didn't get done.
I set myself a lovely bunch of tasks to be completed tomorrow. The people who need to get stuff back to me for that, who
know
my deadline is tomorrow and said that should be fine? Not answering phones.
I am
so
bored, I don't have the English for it.
okay, ita, question.
since you run multiple platforms at home. Do you have various files all over, or did you set up a server and are your files there?
I'm asking because I'm flirting with migrating everything to my mac mini but am askeered.
• Bissell Barbie Real vacuum cleaner
• Cordless, lightweight and portable
• Perfect for cleaning bare floors and carpets
• For ages 6 years and up
Wha????
I am waiting to hear back from clients and coworkers. In the meantime, copying files to one of the servers from badly labeled cds. And shopping for a vacuum. I must have really screwed up in a previous incarnation.
Do you have various files all over, or did you set up a server and are your files there?
All the important files are on the PC and accessible from the Mac. I'm toying with a server -- I have the computer already, it's just a physical logistics thing.
Hmmm... I can't decide. I'm moving to a school that is all Mac, so I think it might be easier to move my files that way? But I'm waffley.
I have just transferred the 2000 song files from my PC to the Mac. That is gratifying.
Can you actually get Digestives over there?
Only in the British import places.
And in chinese import places, especially ones that somehow are in Hong Kong immigrant neighborhoods. I found McVitties for way cheaper at a Chinese grocery store in Monterey Park than at the poshe stupide britishe storee.
