Bobbie! Play Penduli Pendulum!

I've had another full day on the computer putting into effect all the things the feller at Computer Masters in Navarre told me. Well, I did spend a little too long this a.m. on an old beater computer I was using to practice on. Thankfully I had an old wireless notebook card lying around. Otherwise I would've been in a pickle, as I wouldn't have had Internet access for drivers. Blah, Blah, Blah.

Thanks, Mardi, for all the thoughtful comments!

Still haven't heard from Cloud10. I'm firing off an email this eve, now that the computer is pristine and in hyper deluxe working order. Time will tell.

Above is a video of a longtime fave, Bobbie Gentry. The title of this post refers to a long running and comical bit of silliness between my pal Amy and me. We joke that if Bobbie were to ever come out of her reclusivity (No one really knows where she is!) and had a concert, we would hold up our lighters and plead "Bobbie! Play Penduli Pendulum!". You had to be there, I guess, AND you have to hear the song.

The song in the video is "Fancy" and her dancing cracks me up. Every move is planned and she has that soulful, scratchy voiced thing going on. She's awesome and I thought it fitting for my first video post. I finally figured out how to do it.

Peace!

Keep On Truckin'

This is just a quick post, primarily because I don't want to get out of the habit of posting every day. Haven't heard back from Cloud10 about rescheduling training. Choosing not to worry about it.

Boring details:

1. I finished up laundry for my backbreaking cleaning job tomorrow.
2. Ran to Pensacola with my dad to look at the possibility of getting a new computer. We did not because it's hard to get them new with Windows XP - a Cloud10 requirement. A requirement I'm starting to disagree with. (Chuckle - the visual of my dad and me actually running to P'cola - by the bay, on 98, over the bridge, etc -Silly).
3. Suffered most of the day with cramps (I'll leave it at that).
4. Ended up talking again to Computer Masters Tech guy extraordinaire, Steve. He gave me some good advice about wiping my computer again and a better way to reload Windows. He also ruled out the possible problem with the headset, which I had pretty much already ruled out with some other tests.
5. Spent eve in recliner with adorable wee min pin, Coco, snoozing at my feet on recliner while I loaded every possible necessity and driver onto thumb drive. So's I kin git to crackin' on the reloadin' of the Operatin' Seestom tomorrah eve. Oh, all occurred while Les Miserables played on the DVD and Cheryl commented often to my "uh huh". (You KNOW Les Miz viewing was inspired by the lovely Miss Susan Boyle. )

Yahoo Cap'n Phillips (Sp?) has made it home safely!
