Sorry about the lack of a post on Friday - the department Christmas lunch was the usual two hour affair, so didn’t really have time for one.

Anyway, this past weekend went by way too fast. I spent Friday night trying to get the sound card to work, which I finally think I did, but it’s still difficult to work with. I’m missing a hard drive somewhere (Erin keeps telling me it’ll turn up) which is kind of hard to believe. It was only 2 gigs I think (unless it was the 6gig one) so it’s not a huge deal, but it would really simplify the issues. Saturday I went to Al and Becca’s for a Caribbean Christmas party. They’d turned the heat way up, and everyone was in shorts. It was actually a little too hot, so it was just like being in the Caribbean.

I think I finally got home around 4:00, so I slept most of Sunday away. Erin and I went out to pick her sewing machine up from the cleaners, got some groceries, and didn’t do much beyond that. I played a bunch of Star Control 2 again - I’m slowly running out of Spathi Eluders, which makes me sad.

I’m at work today, tomorrow and Friday, then all but Wednesday next week, with everyone on vacation, it’s pretty quiet around here. Lucky me, it’s my week to stock the fridge - not only is nobody around, but it’s only a three day week. Woohoo!
