misfoksOn the topic of reminiscing, someone I used to know from equestrian circles several years ago resurfaced recently for a bit. She's married now, but tracked me down to flirt some more.. Eventually she admitted that she still retained some rather strong physical interests in me. Well, that's always good for the ego. But after only a few days of chatting she disappeared again, with comments left on her own page that she'd satisfied her curiosity about me and moved on.
Some of the strangest folks flit through my life sometimes.
Speaking of which, the ordeal with my old apartment's over. The original on-site manager was removed by the parent company, and her replacement sent me a nice note stating that all the threats made by the previous manager were hereby nullified, so sorry for all the trouble. Good for both of us; it's one less detail I have to deal with now, and they're wisely trying to cover themselves from the risk of lawsuit for Fair Housing violations perpetrated by that now-ousted, broken excuse for a waste of flesh.
On an even more positive note, my desktop machine now sports all kinds of new RAM, a Sound Blaster that FreeBSD likes better than the Fortissimo II I'd bought it, and 3D graphics. Mad props to homey housemate Jonah, wyrd. I missed my cheesy mp3 collection.
I've also gotten myself set up with the means for developing B&W film on my own, since I'm no longer near the photo academy where I used to do all my developing, printing and scanning. This and loading my own rolls of film will cut down on costs quite a bit. This is, as they say, a Good Thing. Now if only I could afford a film scanner, too. Oh, and the new toy mentioned previously should be arriving sometime this week if all goes well. I'm really looking forward to taking it out.
And now, back to tinkering with the upgraded wireless gateway/firewall. Wireless seems to take up a bit more cpu than I'd originally anticipated. Oops.
