Happy Birthday Christina!

My friend in Hawaii (living the dream!) is celebrating her birthday. It is never polite to ask [nor post] a lady’s age so you’ll have to ask her yourself if you want to know. Christina is a fellow Leo yet … Continue reading

iBook returned and operational

I received my iBook back and it’s repaired. How lost and naked I felt without it. Running the contents of its drive through Cosmo (an external FireWire drive) was adequate but it really lacked the great portability my iBook provided.  … Continue reading
