… Yeah, that was a good place to stop tonight. I wish i could be more surprised, but in my defense I performed the same cut at least 20 times tonight. Of, course the thought process ran something like “… slowly, this will slice right into my thumb.” Which leads inevitably to “Wow. that’s alot of blood.” and “hhmm, this one might need stitches.”

I should know better.

I finally got around to booting my desktop computer to begin backing up everything off the drive that failed last week. Why is the hard drive playing hide-and-seek with me? It was there the other night. No longer. I still have a long list of things to try, but it will have to wait. I am headed to New Braunfels Fredricksburg for a few days. Apart from a few days of music, there isn’t a whole lot on that drive I can’t live without.

Keep an eye on the Flickr Badge. I intend start building up a library in no time.

Cheers!
