I've had issues for the past 24 hours with not being able to log in to LiveJournal. Everywhere else on the 'net was swell. Yesterday, Cox must have been fooling with the connections because the TV, phone and Internet all flaked off and on for a couple of hours.

The downpour the Weather Channel promised finally got here. Thankfully, I got out to sign up with another temp agency and got home before it started raining. The people at the temp agencies seem to be agog over my computer skills. I always get high scores because I could do most of that stuff in my sleep. I even get decent scores when I've got a sharp pain in my shoulder blade from a pinched nerve. As soon as I got home, I scarfed down an Aleve. Although it hasn't totally ditched the pain yet, it has taken the edge off.

This place is totally deranged. The drama alone is enough to make it unattractive. I've got an interview set up next week with some people I used to work with a while back. They're not without issues, but I'm familiar with their issues. The increasing drama here doesn't look like it will abate ever.

In other news, I talked to Vel on the phone last night. It was so good to hear her voice. She's being good and not running apeshit amuck cleaning. I might try running over there for a half an hour sometime in the next few days just for a hug.

Busy weekend ahead. Saturday, I'm going to help David, one of the guys in my writers' group, learn how to use his computer. Then hubby, my friend Joseph and possibly Pete and I are going to go see "Clerks II" (again for us and the first time for them). Sunday, I have a Daily Kos meetup to get a Drinking Liberally chapter started here in town. We're meeting at the Columns on St. Charles Avenue. Should be fun. Sometime amid all that activity, I have to transcribe all my handwritten work for my novel so that I can take Chapter 4 to the group Monday night.

Pete and I swapped out motherboards in my system today. Now I'm running a 1.7Ghz CPU with 512Mb of RAM. The problems I had been having with my sound are gone. I didn't even have to reinstall Linux. The chipsets of the old motherboard and the new one are the same. We did have to disable the onboard ethernet to use the NIC since the drivers didn't recognize the onboard one. Even after all the derangement of pulling the old motherboard out, installing the new one and having it not work, reverting to the old one and having it not work and reinstalling the new one, I'm fairly happy.
