Boring stuff I did today

Today I spent some time cleaning this computer room, getting the hardwood floor swept and looking nice, arranging the rest of the room so it wasn’t so cluttered. Things look much nicer now, though going over the floor with a damp mop might do it some good. I spend some time getting the screws and […]

Finished planting, yay!

I spent yesterday morning planting my vegetable garden. I planted a couple rows of beans, cucumbers, white onions, and carrots. Hopefully something will grow ;D The rows I created are probably wider than they need to be, and I left a bit on the edge of the garden empty just in case I want to […]

Saturday, friends and a book

Yesterday was nice. I read for a bit, and then we grabbed some sandwiches at a local pizzeria for lunch (not much to eat in the house, and neither of us felt like going grocery shopping). Afterwards we headed out to run some errands, the typical sort of thing. By the time we were done […]

I’ve lost faith in humanity, good thing we have chix meetings!

It’s not so hot today! Yay! Right now it’s only about 80 F (27 C), which is a nice break from the higher temps yesterday. I spent most of the morning doing normal cleaning and mopping. Caligula ended up being put in his room (our extra bedroom where Michael’s turntables and a bunch of Caligula’s […]

So .. hot .. but I got my garden done, just need to plant now!

It’s hot again today. I really wanted to get the garden plot finished today so I started early, got out there around 10 and was done by a little after noon. Oh boy it was hot out there! And putting the guard around took longer than I thought. But now it’s finished! And I took […]

Fixing and finishing things.

Yesterday ended up being quite productive. After going through the config files that needed updating in gentoo, I realized that one of them was an alsa config, oops. So I replaced that with the new one and wandered around gentoo’s site to go through the configuring directions for alsa to get it back to a […]

Headaches suck.

Thanks for the recommendations everyone, my “to be read” list is all nice and filled up again. I did some searching through the local library system as well and was happy to discover that many of them are in there, which is great since I really can’t afford to spend a lot of money on […]

Looking for book recommendations…

So I decided that I need some book recommendations. We all have a “to read” list, and amazingly mine is quite small these days. I keep going to the library and picking up random books that I think I might like, and that’s been hit or miss. I feel like I’m wasting my time with […]

The weekend.

On friday I managed to tackle the lawn. I had a bit of trouble starting the lawn mower, but then I thought “I spent all that time arguing that I’m not just a weak girl and I can mow the lawn myself, I’m not going to fail before I even get started!” So I eventually […]

Yard work.

So my troubles were all Gentoo-specific. I guess I’m just used to the way Debian does things, and then crazy Gentoo does stuff and throws me off balance, often making me think it’s something *I* screwed up. Bleh. I feel better about computers now… bad moods suck. Yesterday I did a lot with the veggie […]
