I'm back!

The new computer is in. Still feels a bit weird, the keyboard is laid out slightly different, which means I keep hitting the wrong keys. I don't know if I like XP, everything is arranged in a different way to ME, and it's taking me a while to get used to finding my way about.

The screen is bigger and *much* brighter than Blue2's, I'm on the verge of getting eye strain because of the glare. The installation went pretty well, just a few arguments, mostly because of the damn e-mails which wouldn't install properly. And questions like, 'why is it taking over 30 minutes to transfer your story folder?' and 'do you really need so many video files?' fun stuff like that when James saw exactly what was on there *g*

But in all we're getting there. A lot of stuff's still on disc, all my backed up mails etc but it's just time now to get everything to how I like it.

What I do like is you can have multiple identities. So James, Corey and I will all have our own. That means when family want to use the computer I'll log them in on a 'safe' identity. No worrying about them seeing things they shouldn't *g*

Off to read my friends list now...
turps: (guh!)
Read through my friends list at last. Huge hugs go to [livejournal.com profile] castalie and [livejournal.com profile] jencat004 who are both feeling poorly. There's also some others who are feeling down, so hugs to you too.

It's also Kevin month. YAY! My favourite boy. My NSYNC love is pretty new but I've had a thing about the boys for a long time, especially Kevin. He's one beautiful man, and I like him a lot. He tends to get a raw deal, people taking the mick out of the way he talks, but I think his accent is to die for. He's protective of his group, is totally commited to his causes, could wear a sack and look good. Is polite in interviews, has a wicked sense of humour. Can get down with the best of them and gives awesome hugs. Can carry off long, short or crazy hair, wears a skirt and despite the mockery just looks totally serene. He's an incredible singer and can even say the cheesy porn voice overs with a straight face. Above all he just loves all the others, and has mad passionate sex with Nick. And I love him, so Kevin month fills me with joy.

I hear there's been another kerfuffle, but I'm not even going to ask. It didn't hit my friends list and that's just how I like it.

Still working my way round the computer. Went to my site and the banner didn't stretch all across the screen, so I must have a bigger monitor. I keep hitting the caps lock button, which either means the keyboard is smaller, or my fingers have grown *g* Also, delete buttons should be in a standardised place. I'm just saying.

ETA: So so sorry to [livejournal.com profile] castalie I do know your name, really I do *g* Notice it's right now ;)
