Feb. 27th, 2005 09:38 pmFunny thing is, she wonders whether she measures up to herself, having traded frenetic fashionable kitchens for a mom's life in the suburbs, now including a part time job cooking for a bagel place. All I could say after having sampled her roast whole pig and the chicken at this amazing busy and joyous party, as well as the canned jams and her homemade sauce she sent me home with, is that these bagel-buying people are getting some damned fine soup. I'll be lucky if I don't end up eating that barbeque sauce with a sppon right out of the jar. Damn good show, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tamidon. She and feste_sylvain get 50 poly queer folk to hang out with many ending up in her warm hot tub in the freezing cold, and she wonders whether she is still hip. Geezus.
The new experience for me was having an almost-three-year-old use me as a jungle gym. I must be getting milder in my old age, because I thought it was fun. Usually kids those age are scared of me and hide behind their parents, and start to cry if I get too close (including actually this kid himself), so I didn't exactly expectMorganQuinn to keep climbing when he headbutted me -- much to his mother's horror, which amuses me to no end as she knows -- as he tried to make his way up the back of the couch I was sitting on. Well, this climb was going nowhere so he asked for some help, and he let me put my hands under his armpits so I could lift him off the ground and over the back. Somehow I forgot to put him down somewhere that wasn't on me, seeing as the couch was full, and he ended up standing on my chest while I was lying down, my arms stretched out still holding him under his armpits as he was not exactly on solid ground. When I tried to put him down he kept his feet on my chest so he basically ended up falling backwards on the couch in a very controlled fall as I was holding him all the way. This was too much fun and thus needed to be repeated ten times. Fine with me, MorganQuinn ain't heavy and I like it when these kids do something else towards me than wonder if I am going to eat or bore them. I think he felt comfortable being around me since there were so many people and children around already having fun with each other.
Not a good computing weekend: last week I dropped the Fujitsu P1120. Alas, I did that while it was open, so the hard drive head wasn't safely parked. The hard drive has been deteriorating all this week, now it bluescreens in 30 minutes. Time to talk to the support lines again. And still nobody makes an affordable subnotebook like it, unless I want to buy direct from Japan. No data will be lost, I have learned my lesson: the network has been mirroring all my data since the last hard disk replacement.
