Crash & Crunch

.
My laptop crashed last week - have no idea why. Our crack IT person at work got it back up for me though it still has some issues so once I get everything backed up, she'll blow it all away and reinstall stuff. This is thump on the head number two for Stef - that I need to religiously back up every single thing, not just my usual semi-religious. So far, it appears I can learn that lesson now with no real pain endured.

Another thing we did was upgrade the RAM and hoo-boy, this baby zips along now - just like it's supposed to. I always wanted it to keep up with my clicking and typing and I'm pretty fast. And now it does! I realized that was probably part of the subconscious reason I didn't back up every single thing every single time - it was too time consuming. Wish I'd done this ages ago - for $88 or something, it's ridiculously worth it.



The other reason you haven't heard from me is it's fall show crunch time. These are Sticky Notes awaiting the finishing touches. This production line method works pretty darn well. (Note my beloved Tivo controller and tubs of beauuuutiful beads.) And I still haven't got the new stuff up on the website yet - and I might not for a while now. The next show is October 4 so I have to really keep hustling.

But it's all fun.

You weren't the only one with computer issues. I spent 2 days trying to back up only to learn my guru has software that pulls folders off and he can stick them back!

I only have 448 ram, the video card uses the rest of the 512. Appears to be enough.

I've been wondering where you were... It's good to have you back!
