I’m still sick and I’m taking meds but they don’t seem to be doing anything for me. I’ve tried two different kinds and the results have been the same. So obviously, I didn’t swell again last night. I had the humidifier going, so at least I didn’t keep waking up gagging for air with a dry throat.
I went home after work and had a note on my door that my hard drive had been delivered to the apartment office, so I went to pick it up. Once I opened the box, I knew something was wrong. It was HUGE. I called Tech Support to get help installing it (otherwise they void your warranty) and as I was telling him what I needed to do, I realized that the hard drive was meant to go in the bay where the CD/DVD drive is. I’m not willing to give that up for the extra hard drive space.
I was pissed. I specifically asked the guy at tech support, BEFORE I made the purchase, if I would have to remove anything to put this in. He said I could keep everything in my laptop and install this as an addition. Oh well. So now I’ll be returning that.
I’m currently putting all of my music onto my 40gig external hard drive. The problem is that the drive is a bit too big to take with me anywhere. I wanted someway to have my music portable, without taking up all the space on my laptop. I also wanted backup for the ext hard drive. I’m spending so much time putting all of my music on that drive, and if it ever crashed I would be devastated because it would take forever to reload it all. So now I’m thinking maybe an 40gig iPod would be the best solution.
Anyways… so I’m still sick. I don’t feel like going anywhere, especially the gym. So I just sat at home and watched TV. I’m pretty sure I’m just having allergy problems, which is why I think the meds aren’t working. I should probably go get some Claritin today.
I spent more time loading music onto my hard drive. I’m up to Alicia Keys now. I’m at the halfway point now. I’m hoping to be finished by Monday. The next step will be to go through and categorize the music by temp and mood. Seeing as I’m only half finished and have about 5000 MP3s, I imagine that will take a long time as well. I’m not in any rush to get that part of it done though.
Tonight is our first night bowling on the new gay league. I’m excited and a little nervous. I’m excited because I think Michelle and Ryan are being friendly again and we’re all having dinner! Yays! Our little family will be whole again! I don’t know where she wants to have dinner yet.
I finished all of my paperwork to become joining the Big Brother Big Sister program, and I sent it all in. My sister signed up before me, but they haven’t called me yet as a reference. That will be fun when we’re both Bigs. We can have Big play dates.
