So... I'm kind of humiliated here... somehow I picked up some virii. I bet it was yesterday, I met some people at a coffeeshop and we used the wireless there...
Norton's found three unique virii already. Admittedly they're apparently not that harmful... but.... gah. This doesn't happen to me.
uh oh!
But my pants are getting too big, so it must be done.
At least I have Norton... I have it run a scan at least once a week while I'm out. And I use Spybot and Ad-aware religiously.
Norton makes the bad files stop affecting things, but it won't clean out the registry, so I have to research each virus it finds to see what manual steps I need to take.
Cool winter wonderland! You should bundle up and go for a walk with the camera!
Too big? That sounds like good news...
I have a male view of shopping for clothes - get in, get what you came for, get out, before the mall explodes.
I don't have boots! The snow will get inside my shoes and I hate that.
Well, I think you'd better be hinting about some boots for Christmas if you are going to live in Colorado!
If I could make my age work that way, with proper diet and exercise of course :)
...I have a male view of shopping for clothes...
Te Deum laudamus.
I still have the ones Uncle Sam gave me. Haven't worn'em since.
Of course, I haven't been participating in a lot of winter activities either...
I already asked for a new pair of sneakers. Mine are almost worn through, and the only kind that help with my flat feet are, oh $60, which is a lot for me to plunk down.
I'll keep my eyes open for boots on sale.
Congrats on the pants! It's great to lose a size...
Heh, let's just say my shopping habits make my mother, grandmother, and sisters nuts...
"Go try this on."
"Mo-om, its the same size as the other five."
"They're all made a little different. Now go try it on."
Of course, it fit...just like the other five...
Now imagine being a girl... and having to try the same exact shirt in three different colors, including purple, which I hate. Or the same shirt, only with a different color style. And then, matching shoes to the dress! I don't think so!
Sorry about that. I'll get a mop.
Afternoon all....ooops that's my cue...later.
Now operating on the wireless. Let's see how this goes.
Wireless is really fun for laptops. Is it any kind of thrill on a desktop?
Well, it did. For about five minutes. Then it quit.
Same thing happened yesterday. I felt like fussing with it then.
Not today. Today I told the c/r he's welcome to take it for what I paid for it Friday, or I'll take it back.
Life is too short to be frustratedly fussing with unnecessary luxuries.
Hmm, yes, they can be a bit finicky. Oh well...
I'm bored, but not bored enough to just study something. Ungh.
