In which I do one thing in place of another.
I couldn’t install my new 120Gb hard drive because I need a hard drive caddy because I can’t get the one on my current hard drive OFF because of un-ideal tools and a lack of significant hand/wrist strength. This whole hard drive replacement project is one stupid thing after another. I went to eBay and bought a second caddy and also an Ultrabay caddy so I can have both damn hard drives in the machine at the same time.
Moral being that quite often, throwing money – in this case, about $27 – at something does make it all better.
On the subject of money, only two paydays between me and the Global Blogger Meetup in DC next month. I’m so excited! I’ve already purchased my tickets, and now I really should schedule a hair appointment.
Oh, anyway: yeah, with the hard drive project hung I installed a new WP template here on the ‘box instead. (I even tested it in Internet Exploder! Go me!)

When I was in DC I went to an amazing tapas restaurant in Bethesda, I think. Ahh, here we go – Jaleo.
We’re going there! -m
@80 the best tapas restaurant in DC is Jaleo. They have a branch in Bethesda as well. We will be going to the DC Jaleo on 3/17! woot
GBM, kittens! IT WILL ROCK!
I’m so excited! About GBM! About Jaleo! Yay! -m
ps. Jaleo also has the best sangria. Mmm. Sangria.
Mmm. Let’s get some! -m
btw, I like the new look. When did that happen? Perhaps I should stop reading teh ‘box on bloglines …
OK. I will stop commenting now.
New look happened yesterday. Bloglines is for pussies. 😉 -m
yes, the sangria is muy peligroso.
True dat. -m
Justin’s first computer was a Frankenstein that I cobbled together from a couple of computers. When I upgraded the hard drive to 120GB, the new drive wouldn’t fit. I messed around with it for quite a while, then decided to just cram the hard drive into the case, where it leaned at an angle for a couple of years without ever being physically attached. We never had any problems.
My last tower was never even closed, I left the case covers off and all the components inside were just hanging loose. Easy access! -m
