So, i'm trying out the upload feature from the LJ gallery and it puts the photo in a table. A bit much if you ask me. I guess it's good if you don't know html but i think i'll stick with my img tags. Oddly enough though, if you upload from the gallery itself, it does a table. If you upload from the update web interface and use that little drop down insert feature, it sticks in the image tag and links it to the photo in the gallery as well.
Anyway, we had a nice lunch, the four of us. Carolyn is my best friend from when we were in our late teens/early 20's. I dated her brother but stayed friends with her after the split. We've mostly lived in different cities until the last 6 years and even then we don't see each other as much as we'd like. Mom and Dad always thought of her as a third daughter and she's always felt they were more parents to her than her own (long story).
Carolyn and i went to Chapters to get a coffee in Starbucks and i actually resisted buying anything. That must be a first!
Got home and dug out the cd with the user manual for my printer. It's still been flashing amber at me. Seven times. Looking up in the troubleshooting section it says that 7 flashes means the print head is b0rked. You know what that means, boys and girls? Yep. New printer. Costs almost as much to get a new print head as it does to get a new printer these days, sadly. I could leave it in the recycle shelving until with a note on it and someone might take it and spend the money to fix it. I think i will probably spend a little more and buy and all-in-one scanner and printer. I have a scanner but it isn't going to cost that much more for the all in one and it'll probably work faster. save space. Mom or Sis, do you want the old one? it should work on either of your computers. It's got both usb and serial cable connection and you then have to plug the printer in to the back of the scanner which then connects to the puter. It's a better scanner than the one mom has though it will be somewhat slower on that puter as it has less memory and juice. Anyway, when i get the new one you can let me know.
Am going to try to download tonight's UK Doctor Who so don't anyone spoil it for me yet!!!
