damnation

well to tell you the truth i'm feeling a little ashamed of yesterday's post's title--boobies. maybe i went too far. maybe it will attract unwanted smut searchers to this blog. i'm a bad person and i know it.

right now i'm feeling a little discouraged and frustrated. you see i have a lot of pics to work on. i found rob in the move, so i have karey's bike photo shoot to do. i also found bob, so i have some more of bethany and ben to do. and i took a smattering of photos at christmas that i am very keen on doing. but i'm being stifled in my wishes. stunted in my growth. damned so to speak. squashed. limited. my photography voice is being muffled!

the problem is this: when i moved on that oh so memorable new year's eve, i threw my computer away. tossed it in a neighbour's dumpster. good bye old friend. i didn't want to bring any computer loving, techno geek bed bugs with me to my new safe haven of mismatched walls and lino covered carpet. not to worry, i had mom and dad's computer at home, and i had photoshop saved on several disks.

in the move i also threw away piles and piles of books. but i also saved piles and piles and piles of books. how i did this was by placing said books in xxxl ziplock bags to re-open after either 18 months of solitary confinement or after 14 days of below zero treatment in various freezers (namely doug and delanie's because their's is empty and big enough). my cats like plastic bags. archie particularily likes to lick them, bat them and bite them. also i have 7 or 8 huge bags and my new home is half the size of my old home. so there's not really any place to put them besides a small craw space behind the peach palace (see here ) which opens up in the back of edith's closet/cupboard in the peach palace (see here). anyhoo, i haven't had the oomph of spirit yet to tackle the crawl space, so all the bags are outside our front door on our little ground floor balcony/patio/whathaveyou. and neither have i had the oomf of spirit to search through huge pile to find one of the photoshop disks (because besides the book bags there are other bags of quarantined items) . but i've been wanting to photo edit so badly! so today, the day i caught up on my sleep, the day i don't have to work until 3pm, is the day i decided to go retrieve the cd.

it wasn't that hard. took less than a minute probably. the hard thing is, that i can't even get it to run! i slide in the disk and it looks like something is going to happen and then NOTHING happens! i tried both disk slots! i rebooted the computer! i tried to manually open it numerous times! nothing works! what am i supposed to do????????

feeling a little sheepish about the title boobies? I admit, it certainly caught my attention. Mom might have gotten embarrassed by it. She also would have said brassier.

I know what you mean about oomph of spirit. There are several things around my house that I need to do (organizationally) and I just haven't had oomph of spirit either. It just hasn't been there.

you should deal with the pile of ziploc bags outside on our said balcony/patio/whathaveyou, that's what you should do. o, and i guess you could buy a non-burnt photoshop cd with your returned deposit of our former apt.

It is truly necessary to have enough sleep before tackling these kinds of things!
