I finally got smart. I hooked a monitor, mouse, keyboard and REAL speakers up to my laptop, and turned off the setting that says it should shutdown when I close the lid. Now I don't have to work on a laptop anymore, but it still very slow. Very slow.

Yesterday was exhausting.
I got up, and lounged around the house until about 1:00pm, talking to Jess, doing laundry, and being generally lazy. Around 2pm I went into work, and around 3:00pm I got a call from Morgan telling me that Brad got the UHaul stuck in the parking garage and that they needed help. I [...]

I don't really have the time to screw with this machine right now. My only CD burner is on it, so I can't download a new copy of Debian and burn it off. I don't have a Windows XP CD because… um… the one I um… bought… was… um… accidentally placed in the Microwave. Yeah, [...]
