Birthday pints
Nov. 18th, 2005 03:55 pmI didn't bother with doing a birthday bash this year, but tonight is the next best thing, 'cos it's ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
camies's birthday drinkie tonight at the Cittie of Yorke on Holborn. If you should wish to raise a glass to his anniversary and mine while you're at it, do please drop in!
And while I'm on that theme, hippo birdy to ewe todarth_tigger!
As for me, I have New Toys, and they're the kind that doesn't cost money, which is the best kind of all. By dint of trading lots of stuff to Computer Exchange, I have a 1GB card in my phone. A gigabyte. In a phone. If you count a flash card as memory, as RAM, that's more than any computer I own. Madness. And it was £40 in vouchers and is the size of a stamp. Makes me feel somehow very old. First PC I used and first hard disk I owned were, coincidentally, both 20MB. [Sigh]
I also have a shiny new (-ish - to me, anyway!) notebook computer, a little white Toshiba that tries really hard to look like an iBook. I only wish it were an iBook! It actually replaced an aluminium PowerBook, but the owner, a client of mine, has decided that she really likes the Powerbook as a home computer even if it didn't work for her as an office one, so she won't swap back. Shame! I thought I might be able to parley it into an AlBook for a while there.
NaNoWriMo continues. I've written about 10-15,000 more words, maybe as much as 20K, in the last couple of weeks, but I've got some on one Mac downstairs, some on the Mac upstairs, some on my phone and some on my Psion, so I have no idea what the total is. I fear I am falling way behind target, though.
I've also spent some time finishing up my Norwegian travel exploits. Next to add pictures and then I will upload it, but in the meantime, shout here if you'd like me to post the last few days of it here!
