Done yesterday (20111214 We)

Pretty good day. I've been trying to be more consistent about taking Cygnus (my netbook) to work; this is especially useful on days when I have meetings, since both of my work lappies are ancient and have crummy battery life. I noticed that all the blue function labels on the keys on Cygnus appear to be recognized by Ubuntu, which is cool.

On the down side, I opened my bag before the first meeting to find Cygnus happily cooking itself to death. No harm done, apparently, but obviously I count on closing the lid to suspend with 100% reliability.

Thankful Thursday

Today I'm thankful for...

• My family.
• Close friends (no matter how far away they may be physically).
• Home.
• A second home with my sister-of-choice.
• A new musical group coming together.
• What passes for my sanity, and a comparatively sane household.
• My new netbook.
