We ordered the Canon PowerShot A70 last night, it should be here by tomorrow. Yay! I haven’t really talked about this trip we’re taking. Michael wanted to take a vacation because he’s been so busy lately. OS migrations at work, moving into the new house, he’s been working full time all the way through this. […]

Searching for a good digital camera, success!
April 21st, 2004 by pleia2
I like to take pride in my searching abilities, but when it comes to doing research for products and actually shopping online, I suck. I don’t know what the trouble is, but Michael can hop online and within 20 minutes find what I can’t find for 3 hours of searching and wading through reviews. Part […]

Looking to buy a new digital camera.
April 20th, 2004 by pleia2
I was outside this weekend doing yardwork, and I was so pleased with how everything was looking that I put our nice new e2 batteries (they say they work well in high drain devices) in our HP Photosmart 215 camera and headed outside. I tried to take a couple pictures, then gave the camera to […]

Weekend yard work
April 19th, 2004 by pleia2
No posting about the events all weekend, oh dear. This won’t be interesting or thoughtful, just a rundown of events really… It was a beautiful weekend, so it’s a good thing I wasn’t cooped up with the computer. Saturday morning I went outside and started working on the veggie garden. First I had to rake […]

Svenska learning via Disney, more on the fellow who couldn’t RTFM, and gardening!
April 17th, 2004 by pleia2
A swedish friend of mine has been sending me films in swedish, and guess what… he’s got a bunch of Disney full length animated features! YAY! For those of you not aware, back in the day I was a crazy Disney animated feature fan (live action sucked, with only a couple exceptions). I spent a […]

RSS (and firefox eating mozilla!), Caligula’s Hurt tail, debian n00b, and #null is way popular…
April 16th, 2004 by pleia2
Well I finally settled on using the RSS Reader Panel for Mozilla Firefox. It’s working great, although it definately has it’s limitations. Then I tried to open up Mozilla today, since I’m still so attached to it and firefox opened up. Oh flooby. So after asking around and finding out if anyone else had this […]

Search for a good RSS feed reader.
April 13th, 2004 by pleia2
I haven’t written anything interesting lately. I was going in circles with my checking email, reading news and journals, and organizing my home directory (I got it so it’s mostly just tons of directories now *sigh*). So I decided I needed a new project. In light of all the RSS Feed icons I’ve been seeing […]

We’re headed over to Michael’s mother’s soon for Easter dinner. Yay! Yesterday was a pretty typical Saturday. Michael spent a bunch of time cleaning the inside of the Rav4, and we decided to bring Caligula outside on our deck for a bit. We put on his special collar and a lead we picked up from […]

Fom PrincessLeia2 to pleia2, and we went to seeJersey Girl last night.
April 10th, 2004 by pleia2
Wait, don’t freak out. My nickname is now pleia2 on xelium now (where #13thHour is). I’ve always been pretty against nickname changes in IRC, I’ve known too many people who come in with a new nickname every 12 months (or less!) and wonder why people don’t know who they are. One of the former opers […]

Kitties meeting, taking walks, (lack of) organization, learning svenska
April 9th, 2004 by pleia2
Caligula is very talkative. When we’re walking around the house doing things he has a tendancy to follow us and meow from time to time to let us know he’s still there. It’s really cute, but it has taken a bit of getting used to, Cargo usually just meowed when he was anticipating food. Cargo… […]
