Goodbye, January 2006!

So let’s review:

  1. Tree falls into the house
  2. Move 4 doors down into smaller place in 4 days
  3. Travel to NY and Canada with a flu
  4. Have fever for 5 days
  5. Printer stops printing, buy a new one
  6. Kick power cord on UPS and blow a circuit, buy a new one
  7. Try backing up main hard disk on G5, get tons of read errors, each one taking 7 minutes. Buy new hard disk and restore from backup.
  8. Mom has car totaled in accident but is ok
  9. Mom buys new car and has someone hit it in a parking lot one week later
  10. Oh yeah, get work done

On the plus side, everyone I know is doing well, which I can’t really ask for more. I’ll be happy to see this month end!

  1. 1) In Roman mythology, Febris (“fever”) was the goddess who protected people against fevers.

      (THIS IS GOOD!)

    2) In Etruscan mythology, Februus was the god of purification. 

      (THIS IS A GOOD OMEN FOR YOU, AS YOU SAW AN ETRUSCAN OPERA THIS YEAR!)

    3) purification

    n 1: the act of cleaning by getting rid of impurities 3: a ceremonial cleansing from defilement or uncleanness by the performance of appropriate rites

       (PERHAPS WE SHOULD GET NAKED AND PAINT OURSELVES WITH APPLE LOGOS AND DANCE AROUND TREE STUMPS AT MIDNIGHT!)
