Okay, well, it seems I haven't posted a blog entry for almost two months. That's a long time, even for me.
Not sure why I haven't posted anything. I guess I feel like I don't have much to say. Or maybe just not anything new or interesting.
I'm feeling okay. Not great, but not awful either. It's actually a strange feeling, sort of empty. Sort of muted. I'm not feeling particularily depressed. But I am feeling just kind of blah.
Trust me, blah is a big improvement over the way I've felt for much of the last couple decades. So I won't complain too much about it.
I have a new nephew - Jax. He's my brother's first child. I'm leaving in a few hours to meet him. It'll just be a quick visit, to see him and take some pictures. He'll be the first nephew or neice of mine that I'll actually meet. My sister has three kids, but I've never met them. Yeah, we're a close-knit family.
Hopefully I'll have some pictures of him for my next entry.
I was mostly offline for awhile recently. My computer stopped working. Wouldn't boot up. Took it to be repaired. Apparently when you have 100's of gigabytes of music and movies, it clogs things up a bit. Plus my security software had over 150,000 files in quarantine. And didn't notify me. What kind of crap is that? You keep infected files and don't even tell me they exist, taking up space. Weird.
Anyways, after he fixed things, which included deleting about 80 GB of downloaded music (!!!!), my computer is working, and running better than before. But I do have to buy an external hard drive, if only to back up my music, so I don't lose it again. What ticks me off is that he deleted my music without even asking me, without giving me the option to buy an external drive from him and having him transfer the files.
Needless to say, while I will buy an external drive, it won't be from him.
Now I'm downloading loads of files, trying to replace at least some of what got deleted. Thankfully none of the files were, umm, actually paid for. So I guess I can't complain about having stolen files deleted.
Since my mom and I are going to Toronto to meet Jax, we're also going to the Vegetarian Food Fair. We went last year. It was great. Free admission, and a fair number of free food samples. And even the food they charge for is really inexpensive.
I'm not actually a vegetarian, but I like food in general, even it means no animals were killed to make it.
But I love bacon!
We'll end up buying some food to take home in a cooler. Living in a small place in the middle of nowhere, most of the food they sell at the fair will never be sold here.
I am hoping to meet up with a couple friends. We were supposed to meet up at the food fair last year too, so I'm crossing my fingers that it'll actually happen this year. Otherwise my mom may think that these friends are just in my imagination.
What do you know? After only a few paragraphs, I have nothing left to say. I guess when I don't feel like complaining, I'm at a loss for words.
