My kingdom for a mouse
Mar. 8th, 2006 08:07 amParaphrasing Richard III, as you do. ;)
I've noticed on occaision that my little finger and fingernail gets blue stuff on it. It never struck me what it was until a couple of days ago. I have a cheap mousepad and there was a logo on it applied with blue paint or ink or something and that's what was rubbing off on my hand. I caught the guy responsible for the hardware and asked him if he had a mousepad around or... better yet... a spare optical mouse. Why yes, he said, i think i do have one. And so now i have a brand new optical mousie on my desk, and do not need a mousepad. The roller ball is very nice and smooth too though the mouse is more sensitive than my old one so it's just getting used to it.
My gosh, it also just struck me that it's Wednesday not Tuesday and i have only 2 more sleeps until i leave for Toronto! Wooo! I must pick up a few postcards. We are planning to visit one of our other chat friends at her school in Niagara and she teaches a group of special needs kids. She said the kids love visitors and i thought i would bring some cards that show where i live. I think they'd like that. Also need to get some cash from the bank machine, charge up my phone and remember to pack the charger. Am charging up all my extra camera batteries as well and i got to remember to get the rest of the film from the top of the fridge. Am mostly packed at least. I was going to get the bus to the hotel where the airport bus stops but i may get a taxi instead. It's not far and i'll get dropped right at the door.
Still haven't heard from my cousin Brian so i'm making my plans and he'll just have to fit in around them if he's in town. Too bad if he isn't, i haven't seen him in a couple of years or more and would have liked to. He works for Reebok Canada and does do a lot of traveling. They're expecting a baby in May too :) She's been staying with her parents here in Halifax and in Florida while they are renovating the house.
