Ya Win Some, Ya Lose Some

My shiny, newish Mac Pro is fixed and sitting in our foyer.

Alas, it's going to continue sitting in the foyer until the Sweetie gets home tonight. It weighs a ton, and there's no way I'm going to try and drag it up to our third floor office. I just barely managed to get it down from there by myself.

I don't think I'll even have much time to set it up and make sure it really is happily fixed until Monday night, since I'm off to Stratford for the day tomorrow for more theatre (The Importance of Being Earnest and Cyrano De Bergerac with FJBryan), and then Saturday we're off to my mum's for Thanksgiving weekend.

Definitely 30 bucks well spent. (Man, I wish I'd thought of that. *g*)

My mother wasn't so much taken aback that I didn't go with the Sweetie's name as disbelieving that I wouldn't take the opportunity to ditch a crazy name with too many vowels. (She went from a sensible Irish name to the Zed moniker.) Personally, I love having a name that puts fear in people's eyes when they have to say it. *g*

As much as anything my Mother doesn't understand why I wouldn't have ditched my dad's name while I could but I like it and believe me, you don't need a surfeit of vowels to confuse people. *g*
