Technology is like a cat... purrs right along until it suddenly sinks its fangs into your thigh

Well, today with the help of [livejournal.com profile] kor27 we finally set up my new computer. The big problem, of course is how to get all lour old data to the new box. He set up a sort of bridge that was working until he left to get some sleep, then immediately failed. Most of what's on the old disk is replacable, but most of the C drive is our entire music collection.

Yeah.

I think that we're going to let him sleep for about 16 hours, then send him a message. Help!

In the middle of this, we went out to Chili's for lunch. I have been craving this food for months, and decided to hell with decorum, I was going without dentures. Queso has never tasted so good, I devored my steak (in tiny pieces) and gummed my way through my fries. A very large beer helped. Great food, and I don't think I've eaten that much in one sitting in well over a year. Before, during and after the computer and queso epic, Kiri and I started tackling the living room. We've struck floor in several places!

Food coma is hitting. I think I'm going to defer writing in favor od downloading things to the new box.
