tracker7Yesterday? Good day. New books, new CDs, and a good Trinity session. Should have gone in with tegyrius on a pizza at Puccini's Smiling Teeth, though, as there was a bit too much mushroom in my lasagna for my liking.
Lucinda Williams' new West is a good album, just a notch beneath World Without Tears. I'd put it on an equal footing with WWT, but "Come On" is just a dreadful track.
Talked with Erin last night. Some ground got covered, and we're really communicating again, so that's a plus. We're working on a couple of character ideas for The Effect, one that she came up with after getting stuck in the woods after sunset, the other a sidekick/partner based on a character idea from various cyberpunk-style games from way back when.
Holy cow. "Wishing Well" just started playing on the MusicChoice '80s channel. I'm suddenly 16 years old again. It will pass, but there are some happy thoughts there.
No word on the cousin's funeral. According to an updated article yesterday, he was found in a vehicle owned by his employer, and a search warrant was executed on the company's offices as part of the investigation.
My old desktop machine continues to slowly kill itself. Discovered last night that OfficeXP has become corrupted. However, the Sun StarOffice 5.1 (current version is 8.0, to show this thing's age) package that was original installation is still working just fine, and to satisfy my own curiosity, I downloaded and installed OpenOffice 2.2. Tiger Direct has some decent desktops (refurbished, but that means still running WinXP instead of Vista) that are comfortably within my budget, and I'm starting to sort through those and determine which one is the best option for me.
