There's all that wailing and crunching...

 

Sorry, what was I talking about? Oh yeah.

 

So I gave Dr Jay his shiny new RAM, and he said he was going to call me tonight about the other machine and what type it had, but he has not done so. Guess he forgot. Then as expected over to see Pat. While hooking her laptop up I hit the switch that turned the printer/monitor/speakers off and thought, "oh, I hit the switch on the power strip. Hum de dum, turning it back on." Then the printer started to make a grindy unhappy noise at me. "Oh goody", I thought to myself, as I was the only one there in my head, "lack of electricity for ten seconds somehow broke her printer! And who was the direct cause of this malfunction?" *looks around* "OH RIGHT IT WAS ME." So then I had to drive home (10 minutes) and get the printer the lady who shoved the piece of black cloth into the document feeder gave me and "sell" it to her for a tiny, tiny amount and took another hour getting that right I didn't charge for.

 

Charity Work. Just like I told my parents. It gives you a good feeling, right?

 

Of course I printed something with it when she gave it to me, but nooo it complained that there was something wrong with the color cartridge (I had a spare black one, aarg) making it even more joyful. So she gets to order a color cartridge before she can even do anything with it. 

 

I had planned to spend an hour and a half there, (I got there at 11:00) then go home, have lunch, then go at 2:00 to see Even. No. I went there directly. I guess it was just his mouse acting up though, which I got straightened out relatively quickly. Picked up the second check from the hotel. Went for a haircut (a big thank you to my "stylist") and got some Pokemon toys. Hey, I'm not judging you here, am I? NO, no I am not.

 

So I finally made it home for some sustenance, checked my websites, looked at the revised demongate high rules for the big showdown next month or so (looks like this Saturday is the Pyre game, while next week is the convention at RIT that's always pitiful). Won Marvel Ultimate Alliance, woohoo. Made phone calls, then was walking around wondering why I was so hungry, and it occurred to me I was down a meal for the day. HA. That'll do it.  

 

So two for tomorrow I guess, in the afternoon. A guy finally joining us in the 21st century after having a crap ton of ancient Macs he uses for writing (but why, oh why, did you have to get some crappy, used PC to do it with? Oh the humanity) and the second investigate some crashes and lost sound cards or something. Not too clear. What can I say?
