Admin Cat likes to hang out with me when I study at home. It usually isn’t bothersome, but sometimes you gotta trap him behind some pillows to get your work done.

Unpacking by Ben+Sam

I wish I had a little more time to put something together, but I want to do a quick update while I’m thinking about it.

The big move went off without a hitch.  This is in no small part to due to the help of my family, Wife’s family and several of our friends.  If you all happen to be reading this blog, thank you for all the help.

Up to this point, we have not so much been unpacking boxes as making sure they are in the correct rooms and making space for stuff to land.  However, tonight we’ve started ripping open boxes to empty with reckless abandon.

The place is starting to shape up.  The apartment is going to look pretty good once we get through this stuff.  I will say that if you are going to be making a move, starting throwing stuff away (i.e. donating, selling, etc.), early and often.

It Lives Again! by Frumber

So, the screen on this laptop seems like it wants to die (possibly as a response to me putting money into upgrading the laptop).  The LCD on a laptop is not unpossible to swap out, but at that point the laptop would become slightly less reliable.  One of the top needs that I have from a computer in medical school is that it be reliable, so at that point buying a new laptop would become necessary.  The screen hasn’t died yet, so I should get six months out of it…maybe a year.  If not, I’d at least like to get to the Windows 7 launch or hopefully a few weeks later.

As of right now, the screen has only gone out under certain circumstances (like when the monitor shuts off due to inactivity, which I’ve shut off) and I can bring it back by suspending and unsuspending by shutting and opening the laptop.
