inexcusable

I know, the length of time I have been gone is inexcusable. Though I'll try to make excuses: oh so so so busy busy busy, and moving, and no internet at home for way too long.
There. That's done.
Instead of trying to update all the stuff that has happened over the past month +, (anatomists wedding was a blast, moving into my new house has been great, work has been ok-good) I'm just jumping right back into the swing of things.
Friday I'm going golfing. Today I went to Goodwill with a co-worker to assemble our golf costumes. I don't golf, this is a company golf event we are attending. So I bought a few clubs at the Goodwill because I think it will be cheaper than renting some, and more entertaining to have old clubs with funny names. I got a pink skirt with white polka dots and attached undershorts, all brown saddle shoes, a white polo shirt with thin bright multi-colored stripes, and i will add my own plaid hat and argyle socks.
I'll try to take pictures.
And this leads me to my technology issues. Today I have been trying to solve them, or at least take the necessary steps. I have had many technology issues lately. Lucky for me, kungfuramone may be solving one of the biggest. Back to my old complaints of not being able to use the multiple listing service because it's not mac compatible, KFR just might be hooking me up with an old PC laptop so I can work from home. HALLELUJAH! Now this is BIG people, BIG!!!! Because in the upcoming weeks I may be hanging out quite a bit with the wee Emme before she starts kindergarten and the office is not a very fun place for her. So being able to work from home will be so so great! As for my other technology issues, my old Pentax digital camera kicked the bucket. So I am ordering a new camera. I found a great deal on the Canon SD1000. My Powerbook has been randomly shutting itself off because the Operating System has been quitting unexpectedly. So I am getting an external hard drive to back everything up before I have the operating system re-installed. I'e been needign to buy an external hard drive for ages anyway, because I have tons of photos that need storing. I'm also trying to get Jeff's old Emac working wireless and need either an old airport card, which I've seen from $90 - $130, or a USB wireless adapter which I think i found for $30. I feel I have accomplished a lot in one afternoon of floor time. I did get a call today, from someone trying to sell me a technology class for Realtors! HA!
now, after this EXCITING post, did you miss me or what?
