Well, I didn’t get to go to the Railway Club, and Lexi didn’t come over (she wuz feeling porely) but excellent things did happen to me this past weekend, including a FABULOUS meal at Dosa Garden. And a spit at the Boathouse. Verra nice. Got to mention the Vorkosigan filks to Jo Beverley, who’s pals with Lois McMaster Bujold. And I got my internet running at home, did I mention that? Oh, and I bought a…. vacuum cleaner. It’s orange. And I have no place to put it.
Dr. Filk has requested that I forward him a copy of his resume. So tonight it’s off to the Augur Inn to fetch Dr. Filk his resume and clean his apartment. Oh, and I have to take the adjustable spanner back to the Augur Inn, too.
Vas ist das, “thumbdrive?” Never mind, I’ll ask pOp. Woke up too early this morning, have to wait THREE HOURS before I can ask him.
A thumbdrive is a little thing about the size of a thumb which has a USB connection and upon which you can store, well, data. I would suggest you get one big enough to back up your geneology on so that if you have to run out of the house in a fire you don’t lose that.
Speaking of storage, you can now buy a terabit for 600 bucks. I remember when a 40 meg hard drive was da bomb.
