Really old laptop   
06:15pm 31/05/2009
  I've got a 10 year old laptop that is just hanging around because it's got personal info on it. I'd like to get rid of it, though. Anyone know how (and is willing) to wipe it?

Also, if anyone happens to want a really old laptop before I donate/recycle it, let me know!

Dr. Visit   
08:18pm 28/10/2008
  Shibakiei came over so I could run out to the store and pick up a few things for the Z. monster. I had nothing but "Apple Juice" on the B.R.A.T. diet here. Plus a new thermometer, since the old one finally died... Safeway only had ONE thermometer, which was Hello Kitty, and I paid out the ass for the branding. Feh.

Zoe was very sad and cuddly, so we all lay down and watched the Care Bears Halloween Special. Then, Zoe started wheezing, and couldn't take a deep breath without feeling sick to her stomach... When your 5 year old utters the phrases "I want to go to bed" and "I want to go to the doctor," you know it's bad.

Paul got home shortly after. He and Shibakiei took her to the doctor... Motherfuckin' upper respiratory infection. *sigh*

Now that P. is home, and I know Z. is OK, I can finally sit down and relax work. e_e

Home with a sick Zoe. :(

  Started out with a low fever and coughing... now she's throwing up, too! Wheee.

Also, our power is flickering on and off, due to some pretty powerful winds. Hopefully it doesn't go out! That'd make this day *perfect.*

  Me: "Since we've been eating all day, should we just much on carrots and cheese for dinner tonight?"

Zoe: "That's the best logical move, mommy."

Your result for What Your Taste in Art Says About You Test...

Simple, Progressive, and Sensual

11 Ukiyo-e, 0 Islamic, 2 Impressionist, -10 Cubist, -9 Abstract and 0 Renaissance!

Ukiyo-e (浮世絵, Ukiyo-e), "pictures of the floating world", is a genre of Japaneseand paintings produced between the 17th and the 20th centuries. it mostly featured landscapes, historic tales, theatre, and pleasure. Ukiyo is a rather impetuous urban culture that has bloomed in popularity. Although the Japanese were more strict and had many prohibitions it did not affect the rising merchant class and therefore became a floating art form that did not bind itself to the normal ideals of society.


People that chose Ukiyo-e art tend to be more simplistic yet elegant. They don't care much about new style but are comfortable in creating their own. They like the idea of living for the moment and enjoy giving and receiving pleasure. They may be more agreeable than other people and do not like to argue. They do not mind following traditions but are not afraid to move forward to experience other ideas in life. They tend to enjoy nature and the outdoors. They do not mind being more adventurous in their sexual experiences. They enjoy being popular and like being noticed. They have their own unique style of dress and of presenting themselves. They may also tend to be more business oriented or at the very least interested in money making adventures. They might make good entrepreneurs. They are progressive and adaptable.

Every Superhero Needs A Soundtrack   
04:21pm 06/10/2008
  Yesterday, Zoe and I started plotting for Paul's birthday. These are her plans )

It is a "superhero arm extension" and those round things are buttons he'll be able to push to make it "do cool stuff." I wrote in what she wanted each button to do. & Yes, that one says "soundtrack." LOL

As much as it cracks me up, I think it's an awesome idea. Plus it goes right along with my gift of MP3 player... This week I gather materials, so we can make it! Then, I'll just have to find some way to hook up the MP3 player to the device so it will play when he pushes the button... bam! Two gifts in one! >;)

In any case, Zoe and I surfed YouTube to find some "soundtrack songs" and she picked out these four:

1) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95xfXXwIul0
2) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5vRkELqWqE
3) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQF6RwNmiK4
4) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vp5hFjKy20

I need your help identifying them! I'm positive I've heard them all before, but I can't even remember where, no less the name of the song/composer. So, if you can identify the song, or movie, or anything to help me figure it out, please let me know! Then I can download them into the MP3 player before giving it to P. All figured out, thanks to [info]disoculated and [info]224215152!
