well, she thinks she forgot her password to my journal again...i will find out if she has or not later, I suppose...right now, watching the Oscars although I'm not sure why after the excitement for the night of Ann going to the emergancy room for a broken wrist that is 90% healed but didn't hurt until today...she must have broke it two weeks ago or so. So she has an aircast...bother...

yes, this is the first post since Memphis, and, no, I really don't want to talk about the food poisoning. Although the conference itself was entertaining with a few Sienfieldian moments...with me as Elaine...WTF? I'll let Christa and Jeanne fight out who's Jerry and who's George...

Morning all! This is Christa... Adam fixed it so that I could get into and post on here again... Not much going on here other than papers, papers and more papers.. Adam and I both have a bunch of writing to do and a family birthday party this afternoon and all that crap.

I have applied to BGSU for the PHD program. We will see what happens with that in another 3 weeks. Waiting for the results of my GRE. And have the MA exam to finish by 3/15. So I am just a little busy...

Adam has been working overtime still and we are both still trying to recover from the mega drive of last weekend. Memphis is cool. Just not a weekend trip ;) That is all for now!

Posting from Memphis (20 miles south actually) after the Mid-South Philosophy conference. Feeling sick and generally vegging out on couch...

miscellaneous schtuff floating around in the kibble and jetsam (floatjam?):

- my brother turned 21 last month and I saw this weekend for a subdued session of alcohol consumption...I made fun of his requiring a chaser with his shot but was kind and kept the booze all in the family (whiskey and beer) It occurs to me now I should have gotten out the scotch but it would have been a waste of good scotch...unrefined swine...

- the journal has or is about to celebrate its one year anniversary...however, I'm too lazy to look at this particular time

- going to memphis for a philosophy conference, leaving Friday and returning Sunday...i'm looking at more of a getting out of work/mini-vacation type deal...and there are a few interesting papers to go listen to...

- did I mention I've been busy with work or school or both lately...really sucks

I have the iBook setup on the desk and I officially now need a USB keyboard...ideally I'd spring for a logitech 1-usb wireless keyboard/mouse combo...I don't think I can get authorization for that, tho...I really, really dig having two moniters (especially the vastness of a 17" CRT coupled with a 1024x768 native LCD). I can spread everything out and have music/chat on its own screen...of course, this only works out great when children aren't coming over and wanting to use the computer.

I have not been posting due to being completely and totally insanely busy...it sucks...I need to watch two movies again...and review my history...oh, well...

so I downloaded a nifty little apple script(goes to web page) that lets the iBook do extended desktop and it's really nifty, I just need a better desktop location...
