This past weekend was pretty cool. Mom was kind enough to babysit (e.i. spoil rotten) Little Dude for the weekend, leaving The Wif and I to our own devilish devices... namely chatting and sleeping in. I know, ooooh, livin' la vida loca, right?
Anyway, in the totally awesome column, the husband of a friend of ne_today gave me an old workstation PC of his and an LCD monitor. She is a lovely Dell Precision 330 1.5GHz, 512Mb of RAM, 40 Gb HDD, winxp (heheheh) sportin' machine. And I'm grateful that
ne_today hasn't brained me with something blunt and heavy for sneaking away to tinker with it from time to time. ^_^
And although Little Dude seems to be letting his 2001-evil-obelisk side show a little more (last Wednesday, he tried to brain a playmate for usurping "mah boat"), he's been using more and more words. He has also learned how to climb out of his crib so that he's bound by only a child-proof cap over his doorknob. This latter is largely to discourage him from breaking out of his room willy-nilly (particularly when we're asleep).
Seems like there's still more rumor and less fact about my "promotion" but everyone seems to be of the opinion that I've got it. I just wish they'd come up with a plan before deciding things arbitrarily.
Oh well. Tonight's been a little crazy, but not so bad overall. I even made Slightly-Deformed-Origami-Gamera !
