Never Mind
Unistalling and reinstalling did the trick. Growlll.

IE 7 Upgrade Problems?
Has anyone had problems with upgrading to IE7? I use Firefox and maintain IE6 just to keep it (until I discovered Windows Update won’t work with Firefox — must have IE. grrrrr…..). I’ve made a conscious decision NOT to upgrade to IE7, but it keeps trying to force itself upon … Continue reading →
MindJet MindManager
I purchased Mindjet MindManager after a couple weeks on the trial download. I’ve been using it for several things — whether mapping my ever-expanding job at work (I have version 5 on my desk at work, and that was my first exposure to it) or laying out my NaNo “novel” … Continue reading →
Bingeing
I binged at Amazon.com this week. Oh, my. Did I ever. Books. CDs. DVDs. iPod’s 8G nano. A case. Lee Child (five of them — and I’ve never read him before; he better be good), Sasha White, Maria Giordano, Vikram Seth, and Brandilyn Collins for the books. The Kyle Eastwood … Continue reading →
Map-making Needs
Oh, dear. I was writing along this morning and realized I needed to make a map. I have a fictional town, and I don’t know where everything is. I have a general idea, but now I need specifics. I know my real and on-line friends have resources for this. Off … Continue reading →
Dead nano
No. National Novel Writing Month is still thriving. In this case, the 2G iPod nano my hubby found on the ground last Thanksgiving is giving up the ghost. It’s stuck on the Apple screen and emitting a high-pitched sound. I hope the battery dies before it either explodes or bursts … Continue reading →
Recent Comments
I found the recent comments plug-in. Now if I could just figure out exactly where to input my server name to keep my own trackbacks out, I’d have it made. I know it is ridiculously simple — I’ll play with it another time. Or better still, if I could learn … Continue reading →
8G iPod nano
Has anyone seen the new iPod nanos? They have a new anodized aluminum casing. They come in 2, 4, and 8G models. The 4G models come in several cool colors–I’m partial to anodized aluminum and blue, but you could fall in love with hot pink, a bright green, or basic … Continue reading →
Powerful
I have a power supply. I’m typing on the machine as we speak. So far, so good. I’ll let it “burn in” for 72 hours. I just hope it doesn’t “burn” in any other way. I minimized hiking around the building today, and the knee feels “ok.” It itches. I’m … Continue reading →
Still Waiting…
My replacement power supply still hasn’t arrived. In the interim, I’d forgotten how sore a knee is two weeks after surgery, so I’m annoyed at how much it slows me down. Naturally, I’m probably trying to do too much too soon. But, seriously, I’m not trying to do anything more … Continue reading →
