Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

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.

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.

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.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hee. So, unsurprisingly, my town doesn't even register on city-data, but the nearest one, Nageezi, shows:

Population (year 2000): 296

Median resident age: 26.5 years
Median household income: $11,042 (year 2000)
Median house value: $9,999 (year 2000)

Races in Nageezi:

* American Indian (99.3%)
* Hispanic (0.7%)
* Other race (0.7%)

So I'm guessing I win at "least white" town.

If they make Yu-Gi-Oh, and Bob the Builder models, I'll buy three. But I'll stick my own hair (while still attached to my head) in the vacuum, before I buy *only* my daughter a play/real vacuum.

These days, I don't think it makes a difference. It's just storage.

especially ones that somehow are in Hong Kong immigrant neighborhoods.

It's the ex-colony thing. In fact, there's a whole subset of "Jamaican" stuff I can get in HK-neighbourhood stores, or Indian stores.

Blame Nestlé.
