I was nearly sexually assaulted today.

I walk home for lunch. I left my building and was heading up the hill. There was a guy in a hoodie walking down the hill toward me. As our paths crossed, he leaned toward me and TRIED TO GRAB MY ASS. I ducked out of the way, so he missed. Thank goddess. I can't imagine how violated I...

Guess who got a proper lighting kit so she can shoot consistently lit sets?

Guess who also just finished crocheting the bag for her sister?

Guess who also is going to go collapse into bed now?

Also annoying at the cramps my period is always nice enough to come with. I know they're pretty much standard issue, but damn. They suck. And I need to go to work today.

Suckage.

Are you kids ready for an epic tale of computer issues?

About a year ago my boyfriend upgraded his computer. For some reason the new video card didn't work properly. He was so annoyed and frustrated, blah, blah.

Long story short, I removed the adapter and plugged the monitor cord into the other output. Worked like a charm. (He's not computer illiterate, but it was...

My poor boyfriend has been nursing a cold for about a month. I wish he'd either get over it or get full-blown sick, the constant sniffles are getting annoying. I'm sure he agrees with me.

In lighter news, I finished knitting my first sock ever!
