Rip Rip Rip

I was chatting on email with [livejournal.com profile] elaine4queen this morning and related to her my exciting morning activity of putting music on my iPod. I'm working on this laptop that doesn't have any of my bookmarks (read: Porn) or anything. My little netbook that I usually use for internetting doesn't have a CD bay. So I'm using this giant old castoff laptop of [livejournal.com profile] mckitterick's that he's had since 2007.

Not complaining, though, because Music! iPod! Working!

I have to go to the post office to mail something to Canada (heads-up, [livejournal.com profile] shanmonster!) and I want to take my field riding boots to BKB Leather. I hope he can get the calves stretched out because while they're okay with regular tights, they are too snug when I'm wearing tights and socks. Since they're actual riding boots, those babies are so narrow that my tight-and-socks-clad calves cramp in them when I'm walking to work. Not liveable. So, off to see if BKB can figure out how to stretch the shaft of the boot. If he can't, I was told that my leaving the back zipper halfway undone was taken as some sort of Fashion Statement by a couple of the graduate students, so...

But anyway, the post office closes at noon and BKB doesn't open until noon, and it's 7:30, so I have a while to putter around the house. And work on this laptop. And rip CDs. To my new iPod. Which I finally figured out.

Ew. It's raining? Gross. Maybe it'll stop before I go running around outside. Here's hoping.

I didn't sleep well last night. That Turkish coffee last night at 7:00 was Mighty Tasty but also a Bad Idea. I need to cut off the caffiene after 2:00 in the afternoon. And maybe not mix it with a lot of wine and hookah smoke. Good times, though. Good times.

And oh for heavensake, I forgot what I actually wanted to post about. So, yesterday, late afternoon, when I was just done with work, and it was 4:30 and LJ was fucked (again), I called up Tumblr (whom I now consider the person with whom I'm having an illicit affair because LJ occasionally cannot perform if you know what I mean). One thing led to another, and after putting this, this, and then this together, my head exploded and I was pretty much worthless for the rest of the afternoon. Yes. And you're welcome.

Update: JFC. It's thundering? Maybe I won't run those errands after all. Hm.

The stretching should not be a problem. I got a spray at Konomo's that I put on some pinching shoes, and they were then amenable to stretching where they bit.

Jeff. Oh, Jeff.

(And Abed. )

And I *finally* made it to the role playing episode that I saw on YouTube that made me want to watch the series in the first place.

We're only about halfway through the first season, but we're probably going to watch more this weekend. YAY!

That laptop? You're giving it way too much credit. It's from about 2003.

Good heavens. Poor laptop! It's aged pretty well, I guess.

I certainly do hope they can stretch that shaft for ya.
