First Life

Hot weather is difficult if one has a neurological ailment. I have m.s. and even a small rise in temperature can make me limp and weak. The summer before last I suffered a great deal - it was awful. That was the year both my parents died, so the year was just terrible in every way. Last summer was really not bad. I didn't suffer much at all. On Sunday the weather flipped over to autumn, and now that summer's over I can truthfully say I didn't suffer at all. Part of my not-suffering was due to not going anywhere or doing anything - so my victory is not quite as wonderful as it seems -- however, it's pretty darned good.

Yesterday was work - actually it was good. I even staggered down to beat on the server for a while. Alex hasn't done any testing exercises yet - we need to get going with it fast. I saw Tiff, and that was nice. After about 5 years of working perfectly my color laser printer needs a bit of work, which I requested last week. I was told, "Maybe it just needs cleaning," and I said, "Is cleaning not included in "maintenance?" Then pages were printed off the web about cleaning it, and they tried to give them to me, which made me laugh in their faces. I mean, it needs a little maintenance - it costs thousands and works fabulously - maybe it needs 200 bucks worth of servicing. It needs some professional attention. What is WRONG WITH THEM?

Then I came home and spent hours cleaning, which amounts to very little in clean square inches, but is the best I can do. Today I am cleaning, doing a bit of laundry, I had an event in Second Life, I tried out a rather stupid vw that is 2d. Ate a salad... um... what else... er...
