Mantra

My computer is running sweetly. Went to church today, still don't feel entirely comfortable there. Not many people my age, although I do agree with the church's basic social philosophy. That's actually more important to me than agreeing with the whole Christian thing. Not sure if I buy all 9 yards of that, more like 2 and a half. :) I'm beginning to realize that someone can be a good person, but still be a bitch. That's a hard dichotomy for me to wrap my head around. You see that a lot at church, bitchy women who would do almost anything for a stranger, much less a friend. Weird! I still don't like them. The only other problem I have with church is it's too early in the morning, and all the singing, not real fond of singing hymns. Although I do like to sing. I bring water, my mouth gets dry.

Star finally called me. She doesn't sound too happy. Guitar Hero, notwithstanding. Hospitals are not my thing. Spent way too much time there, including a whole day of waiting for my dad to die. Unpleasant associations. Our mutual horoscopes said she might be having money issues with me. If that's true, I'll find out soon enough.

My brother watched District 9 with me. We both loved it. It was entirely believable once you bought into the premise. A great sci-fi movie, highly recommended! Listening to Phil Collins.

I took pictures of my house today and of my works in progress, the craft projects I'm actually working on. I love my Canon camera now that I got the battery issue worked out. I use long life lithium batteries now. One reason I took the pictures of the house is to remember my house the way it is now, the way I have it set up. I hope I like my next place as much or more. "Home, home, home, home, home..."

Lone Ranger to the Rescue?

The Lone Ranger, I'll call him that, came and fixed my computer today, sort of. I still can't burn CDs, but my searches hit more than they are hijacked, by a long shot. He wants to take Miss Thing and work on her at home this weekend, but I think not. I found him to be really abrasive if knowledgable. The Lone Ranger didn't like my wireless mouse (it's red, it doesn't eat batteries, I love it), hates Facebook and Firefox. Well, he deleted a bunch of programs, even Firefox without saving my bookmarks. Needless to say I reinstalled Firefox and imported my bookmarks, I saved them in November and was able to do that. But I will use Explorer for awhile, although I'm not convinced it's safer. I guess I'm just a rebel. I don't like Facebook either, so can give that up easily. And chatting is the Devil! LOL! All in all, a pretty crappy day. He was here for four hours! It was painful watching him uninstall anti-spyware programs I paid good money for. AVG is supposed to be good though, according to the LR, now you know!

I talked to Jean Jeanie on the phone today for awhile. We talked about supplements for better health and energy. I'm not an expert on that by any means. I guess she's gonna look on the interwebs for info. Star was supposed to call me back but she was playing Guitar Hero, maybe tomorrow.

It's so hard for me to ask for help, even with my computer. Resistance may be useless, but I feel it anyway. Out of my comfort zone I guess. (don't have Yahoo for a homepage either, sigh, now my homepage is coachcreativespace) Oh well, I'm getting hungry. That's all for tonight! bye
