Ha, got your attention didn't I? Yep, it's me.. and I am starting over. Of course the almost 300 entries that used to be here have been back-upped on my own system, but I really wanted to start over here. But yeah this is naked in a sense as this is the first entry of a new naked diary and considering I also started a new install on my computer that I am putting the finishing touches on, I figured this would be as good a title as any. So.. where to start. Well.. mepislovers is down, that is something. Good thing I have everything up and running now.. I wouldn't have thought it funny had this happened a few days ago, though I managed to install everything without much trouble and could have waited. Yeah I am basically whining that it is down, that is what you get when you are a nettiholic like I am. I want my forums dammit *throws stuff* There.. that is out of the system. Why is it that when the text says "Forums being moved, check back in 6-7 hours" you still click on that darned refresh button? I mean hello, can't you read?! It's Easter Monday today, national holiday. My brain says it is Sunday and that I have tomorrow afternoon off. WRONG! It's Tuesday tomorrow.. not only do I have to work in the afternoon at a new person, I have to start half an hour earlier on Tuesdays as well. Bleeh, I don't wannaaa. *groan* Today I accomplished something. I have 24bit screen stuff now. Yay! All it involved was editing a line in a config file, changing a 16 to a 24, but yeah.. me and computer innards software-wise don't really combine and usually things go poof then. Well.. I tried it anyway and yay, no more ugly pictures on the web. Why is this an accomplishment? Well.. the system is alive, and I haven't gotten any physical consequences on it yet (read: diarrhea), so all is dandy and wonderful. Hrmm.. *sniff sniff* just a sec.. *pulls banana out of pocket* All this time I was writing this entry I was thinking "What the hell is that smell". I had forgotten I had just brought a banana up with me. Early dementia I say! *quickly checks pockets for other left behind food items* All clear. Where was I.. oh yeah.. 24bits. Then I have this friend.. she told me to go watch The Eleventh Hour that is on TV here now, airs Fridays. Of course I missed the first few episodes but I got them off the web and watched the first three. Good series, although it DOES remind me a bit of the X-files. No.. no aliens.. just that I keep on thinking "When are they going to kiss". *rolls eyes at self* Gotta love being a woman huh. But honestly.. you have to admit that the tension is there.. I mean.. come on now! 21:00 already.. WAAA. No I really don't feel like working tomorrow. Ah well.. once I start I'll live. I don't really have much else to report.. so I guess that is this for this entry. Oh and one more thing: people are way too stuck up with Obama's bow, and that is all I am going to say about that one *grin* |

Waiting for an answer from a friend, and the answer matters a lot, and just my luck, no friend online. Ah well.. I will wait.. maybe tomorrow. Lung picture too, let's see if all the crap has gone and moved out of it. I doubt it though, since in the mornings I still have to open it up proper, and I can feel it scritch down there, like the little things are opening up from having been shriveled up down there. I'll know more tomorrow, so.. there is another stressor right there. This morning it came to a sort of peak.. heart rate being fast and slow, the feeling of low blood pressure, causing the faster heart rate. I called in as soon as I was done and went to the office in the hopes to find the company doctor still there. No luck of course. Maybe go to a doctor soon, that was the advice of the leader, yeah.. I am heading there tomorrow. Everyone's curious of course. I must say, things calmed down a lot in the afternoon, nice lady client, talkative, and yet still lets me do my thing. She told me that if there is help needed again to please come back. I made a good impression there, I'm glad. I know she's not a keeper, but still, it was good to go to a new person again, it sure has its advantages and it is kind of fun to do, even though I DO like regulars. It's been a warm day to boot.. maybe my morning issues came from that, partly. I am debating what I am going to do tomorrow evening.. dance class or not. Given the recent stressors AND the fact that it is going to be quite warm for a spring day, I think I'll stay home and just go Friday. I need some relax time now to avoid a burn out. Tomorrow just one client, Thursday just one client. Friday is in the loop still, with at least the afternoon client, not a clue about the morning. We'll see. It's the second week of work, it's going to be a good week, I can feel that. Good thing. Yeah, that's about it from me here for now. |

Back when I was sick and afterwards I had recorded so much on the DVD recorder that it was getting dreadfully full, so, today I decided that I was going to get rid of quite a few things that still needed watching. A few movies, a few episodes of various series (Mentalist, 11th Hour, NCIS), and I am finally caught up with the series at least. The only downside is that I am seeing square at the moment, but oh well.. it was a fun way to spend a Saturday. Good news on the lungs.. pneumonia left NO traces at all. Even the scar tissue is gone now, which in itself is amazing. Right now my lungs look like nothing ever happened to them, as if the entire event has been erased totally. They may be, but my way of thinking about a few things has forever changed. Fear of dying I no longer have. I DO now.. I don't want to die.. but should push come to shove again, I know that it is easy to just let go and not look back. There is nothing scary about it. Maybe the moment itself will be, but.. *shrug* at least I view that part differently now. And I have redefined what is important to me. I can spend money on things I deeply care about, like my friends, or people in need. Save a bit for yourself, but give a little as well, and it'll make you happier too. On this last bit I hope to see a close dear friend again sooner than I'd hoped for, within three months, which is wonderful. As for the system.. it is now a full week into the new install and things are running SO DAMNED NICELY! I have given up on a few things that were installed on the old version, things that really don't matter much and can be done in Windows easily enough. It is more stress than it is worth to install for instance Virtualbox in Linux just to scan something. I just as easily reboot and do it that way. I edited a few settings left and right so my backup drive now mounts at boot, which is the way I like it, and so I will have my boot log available, which was disabled. Some other few things and tweaks and stuff is like I want it to be. I am much happier with this mepis 8 than I was on mepis 6. Knowledge and experience of course helps a bundle with this. I simply don't do things that I consider irrelevant now, things I thought were back when. Saves stress *grin* |
