ñ look! Now YOU'RE a genious. You've been working on this since the other night, haven't you??!!

Priorities

Now to be unhonest - I would be 95% packed by now - why because I can get just a little compulsive. For our last move, I had everything packed, labeled and organized long before the moving van came.

I make a trip notebook for every trip. I have an 85 item packing list for my upcoming trip this weekend - it is only 5 days.

When it's a Disney trip, I'm all spreadsheets and outfit lists... anything else, I'm more the throw it in boxes and figure it out later kind of gal!

The tilde symbol (~)key is not endemic to the MAC keyboard. To type in this symbol simply use this combination:

Alt + n

they don't call you FAMOUS for nothing.

 

[jeanigor]

Just noticing, the MickeyPath tickers are down again??!!

I see them.

They don't call me Famous based on my looks.

You know Jaime, everytime I get on my motorcycle the quote from your siggy comes to mind. I am reminded to "sit big" and I think of Bawb.

Lists are how I control my life - they keep me sane or at least as close to that state of mind as possible.

 

[tiggerbell]

They don't call me Famous based on my looks.

Amen.

I do a lot of sitting big in Disney - my own little personal homage to Bob.

 

[kathrna]

I see them.

Weird. 'cause in Jaime's I see the "pardon our appearance" schpeel. And I don't see the tops of yours at all (that's all I ever see of yours).

 

[jeanigor]

Amen.

And I don't need the cheesey copy repair man music either.

I need a new desktop computer. Mine's a dinosaur which will be scrubbed and then will replace DH's desktop which is the equivalent of fossil fuel at this point (I think it's still running win 98).

Problem is, everytime I configure something on Dell's website, I get seduced into a better graphics card or faster processor. And then I made the huge mistake of wandering into the Apple Store. So now I'm torn btwn the mac and a PC. WAY too many decisions!

If you just want to surf the net a Dell is the cheapest way to go. If you want a real computer then get a Mac.

Lists are how I control my life - they keep me sane or at least as close to that state of mind as possible.

I do a lot of lists, too. Or I forget to do things. Right now, my main list says I don't own a rake, a snow shovel, or a ladder. The question is: am I going to need to change a lightbulb on a 9' ceiling before it snows? (Cuz I don't give a fig about raking leaves!)

Hmmm. I see the "Pardon Our Appearance" with Construction Mickey, too. But I see my Name Tag style ones....

Now, now, DIS Fiance... leave my DIS Hubby alone!

My vote is MAC. It takes a bit of getting used to, but I'd never go back. My only problem is I can't figure out how to get the squiggle over the "n".

If you go to your System Preferences under the Apple Menu: then Languages & Text: Input Sources: Put a Check Mark in Keyboard & Character Viewer.

This will put a icon on the Menu Bar in the Upper Right Corner of the Screen. Click on this Icon and Click on Keyboard Viewer, then select the Option Key and then you can see all the Special Characters for adding accent marks.

You could always find yourself a nice yard boy.

Yes, it looks like the name tag ones are back, but my banner disappeared again.

Let's see...

Bought a leaf blower for DH -still in the box
Bought a snow blower for DH - had to send to repairman after first winter because gas was left in the tank - again never been used.

It looks like I will need to master operating these machines.

I vote for the ladder.
