which_chickBreakfast today was quite tasty... I combined equal parts olive oil and butter in a frying pan, added about four cloves of garlic, sliced thin, and then I fried up half (sliced in skinny wedges) of a leftover baked acorn squash until crispy on two sides and hot through the middle. It was really, solidly good.
In other news, I now have a gig of RAM in my laptop, which I installed myself. Ph33r my l33t skillz! Or something. I find it difficult to get all that wound up about processes that take two minutes and only involve one actual tool (a teeny weeny screwdriver, of which I have a selection in a nifty folding organizer case). The laptop is now much perkier at rendering video, and that's all to the good. Probably it would start Premiere without shitting quite so badly, too... I dunno, haven't tried that yet. Am very happy with my lame-ass linear editor.
I also bought an external dvd burner for the laptop. I have not yet installed it, but simply looking at the box it came in is enough to give me the warm fuzzies all over. DVDs. I can burn DVDs. I can take my twenty-odd CDs of PoT episodes (three or four episodes per diskie, depending on encoding, and I have episodes 55-150) and make them into... A LOT FEWER DISCS. Downside: Will take freaking forever to put 'em all back on the hard drive. Much effort. However, there will be DVDs at the end of it. Better for storage.
Right. Enough looking. I'm gonna put the wash in the dryer and go install the DVD burner.
