like a fire

for whatever reason, my ibook batteries are not part of the recall yet the one I'm using now is ridiculously hot, but not nearly as hot as my brother's macbookpro.
Thanks for that, but maybe I'll have to keep checking back to see if they update the info on the website and decide to include mine in...

Other than that, I took tons of pics today and tried uploading them to the Picasa albums online, and I think I most definitely prefer flikr for web albums, other than the imagetaxi one that Dan set up a couple years ago, the one I barely use... Those are just for pics I need to link to on picasa, so I don't take up bandwith of Dan's or Kerry's, and google might as well be linked to, they are the biggest conglomerate corporation that has terrabytes of storage just on personal email accounts, so there...

Here's the link to the ongoing albums- I'll probably continue to upload images nightly so I can clear them off my camera, making things easier and a lil' less annoying when uploading them the next time... the only thing I really don't like about it is the hesitation on loading jpegs, it's like they don't get clear and look like shit until it loads a 2nd and 3rd layer, as if it's a gif. Meh.

La's Picasa

Wheeo.

(this was meant to be yesterday)

Fucking assholes, working at the TSA stupid orange alert Oakland shit balls airport!
They blatantly dropped my laptop on the floor, from a good 4 feet up off the counter, it practically bounced.
At least there's the hard-drive freeze disk thingy that probably saved my harddrive from complete destruction, and there are no visible cracks or anything on the case. At least I'd taken the time in the bathroom to turn it off, and at least I filed the preliminary claim, and I could theoretically file a claim eventually if something goes wrong with it, and heck maybe they'd get me a new macbook pro or something, geez.
Asshole, tell him to be more freakin' careful. Dumbass.

SO
I'm here, at least, sitting near the window, watching acute little american eagle chick write in a card and how she managed to get past that security madness with two water bottles is baffling, for sure.

Bah. Fuddy duddy! At least I'm on my way, and nothing seems to be wrong with my trusty 'puter, nothing that's shown up yet, except it's lack of wanting to turn on right away, that was kinda freaky. Bastard, hope he gets fired.

And, tuesday. After a hot, cold, breezey, nice, kitty, hairy and full of flies night of 'burque sleep on the couch, we went to breakfast and I got another green chile fix, and went to Buffalo Exchange, where I tried on a couple dresses and pairs of shoes for the wedding without any such luck.
There was a movie being filmed on the corner, and they had quite a big lot of lighting equipment, it was kinda interesting to check out.

And, today, copying movies for the future ipod video that I'll get sometime, wasting away my tiny little harddrive with the stolen 2x3 inch vids that will entertain for hours, come that day.

Wheeop. It's nice being back, although Abq. is certainly not home, at least it's a taste of the adobe breeze and weepin willow smell...

SO
Tuesday is a good day for a silly photo of mom:

not like I care

I spent the morning getting rid of that tv- called 2 people and the 2nd came and got it. Weird couple, the lady seemed as if she'd had a rough life and was coming out of the detox phase- scraggly hair and boyfriend who made no eye contact and drove a Dodge Neon. Their email said that she'd recently lost everything in a fire and needed stuff, so I opted to call her, out of the 20 responses I got.

Then, went to check out the couch "collection" from the guy on craigslist, and love it- just have to find a time when either J and I or him and J can go pick it up, anytime before Sept. 9th. It's great- huge cushy gray/charcoal and will fit right in our place.
Put 400 down and the rest later. I know we could find shit for cheaper but this is more mature and nice, and worth it.

Then, the bed dudes came to the old place to pick up the bed, and I tried to get them to take the couch too, but of course they had no truck, a miracle they were even able to strap the bed to the top of their buick.

And then I spent the rest of the afternoon packing stuff up, and on the phone with the landlady and at&t to get a jack in the house working. Dammit. Legally they are supposed to have one working jack in the house- and I even called Larry the Handyman on craigslist to ask his opinion, and he said that all 3 jacks in the house aren't working poses a bigger problem, and I should call the big guns to have them fix it. So, sometime between 8-12 on Tuesday, hope Jefe's home, they'll come down.

Hence the title, like I really care, because I've got trusty old wireless access from trusty ol' unsuspecting who-knows-who.

FUCKin A wish I had a truck to take care of some big shit... slow moving this time, that's for sure.

love.

Smudge.

I have to remember to bring back a couple smudge sticks when I go to NM. I just burnt almost a whole one in the new house, it definitely got rid of the new paint latex smell and infused a homely native NM feeling to the place- I saw a "santa fe" style armoire on craigslist, a bit more than I'd want to spend right now, but it was gorgeous and made me homesick for vigas and rounded fireplaces, and the smell of the chamisa burning in every room makes me long for the dust of home...
Regardless this place is coming together, I just wish that jefe were here today and yesterday to help me... it's slightly lonely wishing everyone who enters our home good life health and happiness by myself, but I know that I wished it so hopefully it'll work... ;)
I found myself pushing too hard too much to get a lot done and getting really irritable and even though I've been by myself I get irritated at myself too easily, and so I decided to spend an actual day off, and get some rest not boring myself to death, of course, but chill out and take a break from moving. I'm at the place where I can safely stay at either home but would rather be here- and I'll wait for Jefe to get back before breaking my back on boxes of books and the rest...
Yeh.
➷

phew.

I can't believe how many responses I got for the bed. Easy to give away, easy to sell...
More later, I'm trying to motivate myself with final cut and tutuorials.

\o/ Grinning!

I am smiling so much right now my face hurts!
I made a birthday request at tmbo for uploads of "La" songs - aand they are great!
This one wins.

Mewving AGAIN

New home #3 for San Francisco.
This one will be a sticker, a doosie, the one, the only, and a year lease, so things better work out there... or else!
Ha.
I like it - a lot. Enough to do crazy things in.



Phew.
So laundry is nice. Cleaning is nice. I still haven't done the bathroom yet. Ick.
And- ball game tomorrow. It's the 24th anniversary of me.
