Moving to New Computer

Recently I got a new computer. It’s got a better video card, better CPU, and is generally an upgrade over the (admittedly very high-performance) laptop.

Alpha Geek built the thing (apparently my new computer has the most badly-designed case in the history of modern industry) and helped me get everything set up. Then he set up a temporary network connection between old and new computer to copy over my World of Warcraft files, because that’s hella faster than installing it all from scratch.

While he was doing that, he noticed a folder on my desktop, where I keep files that I need to go through and delete or organize. The folder is named “Shit to Sort.”

Alpha Geek commented, “It must be nice having a computer that you never have to worry about clients seeing.”

On the Mend

We seem to be mostly recovering from the horrible plague. The Artist bounced right back; he went to class yesterday. I was less resilient; I didn’t go to class yesterday, even though it meant missing a test.

Since Tuesday night my chest has hurt. At first it was pretty much constant, now it only hurts if I move around too much. It’s weird and unpleasant. I get dizzy and short of breath if I’m too active. I don’t know if I now have some kind of respiratory infection, or if this is a side effect of having no solid food since Monday night (and probably being dehydrated as well). Hope this goes away soon. I hate being sick.

Duchess is glad we’re all feeling better. Her feeding routine was completely off, and no one was playing with her. I still haven’t summoned the energy to deal with her litterbox, it must be frightful by now.
