Son of a shiskabob…
The printer is working pretty well now. Durr?? Weird as pie I tell ya, weird as pie. I’m still evaluating printers though. The time will come soon enough where we will need a new one and I’d like to be in the know so I can get it while the gettin is good.
The wireless network was working good when we switched channels, except for when the microwave was on. It was then that Josh informed me that the channel we were on had issues with microwaves. We switched channels again and so far so good here. Yesterday of course our provider was having technical issues in our area. When it rains, it pours.
What’s with all of the cliche lines in my post today? That medicine must be really good.

I have been waiting for this… The pattern for the Chicken Viking Hat! I first saw her post on the Craftster forums. Now if only my sister in law would let me put it on my nephew.

I’m worried. Now, it may have to do with me being sick and just overly concerned, but the cat is asleep on the bed while I am sitting here eating ice cream! OK, my concerned parent alert went off and I just checked on her. She had a little peanut butter and ice cream.
Calhoun, I mailed it off yesterday morning. I am sorry it is so late. It should be there Saturday or Monday at the latest. Use those sites I emailed you, they were what helped me!
My own personal tech support (Josh) did his magic (while sick) on my machine and improved my surfing.
Back to the medicine cabinet for me…

I’ll try to only whine about it this one time.
I’m sick and miserable. I went to wash my face and was about to scream. I touch my face and it feels like ants are crawling. I’m just plain sick. I’m still dealing with my migraines as well, so this is all coming at a really bad time. I remember something from earlier today. I think I was delirious, but I am not sure. I recall picking up the cat and dancing around the house. That would explain why I can’t find her right now.
Calhoun, I just got your email. I will try to email you back today, so long as I am coherent.

Awaiting the Academy Awards Nominees announcement. There are so many good roles and great acting that it is going to be difficult.
Of for crimeny’s sake… This is going to be a rough damn Oscar year. I’m torn between Don Cheadle and just wanting Johnny Depp to win because he is Johnny Depp.
Check out the full nominee list.

I’m cold. It’s 64°F outside. It is expected to get down to about 46°F tonight. Brrrrr. Even colder the next few days.
Warm and safe thoughts to my friends north of here. That would include just about everyone.

I seem to making something spinach related almost every two days. Right now I have some spinach pies (one regular and one half size) in the oven.
I’m having bad computer luck lately. My printer has decided to misbehave. Something is causing the image drum to collect the toner powder. I’m afraid it is static. To buy a new drum would cost as much as an new HP. My printer is about five or six years old. I’ve bought three toner cartridges for it (a whopping $24 total), so it has given me a lot for the time. Much more than I was expecting.
So, Staples is having a sale on some printers tomorrow and I may just go and buy a new one. It’s a little sad because it really does work well, but the consumable is just too hard to find and not very reasonably priced anymore.
