Quiet Weekend

Unlike mycrazyhair and corbet my weekend was actually pretty quiet. Our Hallowe'en plans got cancelled at the last minute (well, on Friday), so we actually spent most of the weekend just puttering about.

I finally got new glasses, for instance - I've only needed a new prescription for them for about 2 years. Since I usually wear contacts, I wasn't all that concerned about getting them. But I found a neat, kinda funky pair with easyclip shades for driving, and I think they look pretty good. *g*

Saturday night we watched ( Fahrenheit 9/11 )

Things learned this weekend:

1. Stay far, far away from Mike when he's doing a computer assignment. Not because he gets cranky, but because it makes me crazy to see him make a mistake, or even do things slowly, as he's figuring stuff out. I want to just move him aside and do it myself. I make a truly horrible teacher.


2. If I want to burn episodes to DVD, I have to turn off all power management on the computer. It's a small thing, but it makes a huge difference to a 20-hour convert&burn job. Spend all week trying to do something, make that one small change, and Success! *g*
