The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

Appears I am alone and still without a good light source so off I go. I may do something stupid like go to sleep before 2am.

Don't have one of those Coleman lanterns?

Mom's got one but the last time the power went out, she was scrounging for candles....

Lucky you. A friend of mine worked in the warehouse. On a slow day he would check on the Storyhours. Got caught and told if he was ever on the internet for something other than Mack business he was to be fired.

I now avoid the company computer except to print shipping labels or checking my 401K on break (which is allowed but on only ONE computer that is locked to only use the internet to 401 and the weather channel.

Kinda sucks.

Dang, sucks. I can check when at work, but I tend to do that only when the day is going VERY slow so I can afford a couple of minutes, and no one's around, which happens occasionally, but not frequently, which is probably a good thing.

Well, I can now access my desktop from bed. Sounds like the ultimate in lazy except for the fact that it requires me to clean, move a lot of stuff, drill a hole in the back of the bookshelf - it's crappy, so that's fine - to allow the power cord to reach the socket it was blocking, unplug everything, move the computer, replug everything, and then realize that I couldn't actually leave my room anymore, so I had to clear a pathway to there. FINALLY, I noticed that in all that, I had unplugged my alarm clock, so I had to reset it. Ultimate in lazy? Hah! Hardest physical work I've done all year.

In reality, it was as much a nostalgia thing than anything. I miss lying on my comfy bed under a couple of comfy covers and playing on my laptop. Now, I can do the same with my desktop, though in a slightly different way. Yay for cordless mouse and keyboard!

I used to have a setup where I could access my Mac from bed...which was cool unless someone else was using it.

Never again.

Hehe. I can simply turn my monitor a little bit though and use a chair if I want to. However, in my situation, I can't imagine anyone else but me using my computer.

I bought a laptop a few months back for University. >.>

Yes... University, defintely not playing games.

Being Spike Lee I hope it is not overly racial. Some of his movies lose their point because of that. But then maybe that is HIS point.

Having watched the first quarter of the documentary, it isn't racial (so far). As a matter of fact, addressed why it wasn't racial, since race was an issue being discussed at the time.

The year ism't even a week old yet.....

Not with working over sized special expensive working batteries.

I did try using a flashlight but it required more work than it was worth.
