Sneaky Sneaky

I can’t believe Hubby. Does he think I’m totally stupid? lol

I sat down tonight at my computer and decided to do some organizing. I started to move stuff to my 500gb backup hard drive, but when I went to my computer my 500gb wasn’t showing up. That tends to happen from time to time, so I rebooted. Still not there. Ok, next step. Check for loose cable. I slid the cover off my case to check the cable an :-o

no backup hard drive.

For a minute I thought to myself wtf, then it hit me. Hubby was complaining earlier about not having access to all my music since it’s a. stored on my backup drive and b. the network got screwed up last week and I haven’t fixed it yet.

His solution? Wait until I’m in the shower, then slip the hard drive out of my computer and into his. Sneaky sneaky but now he will pay *evil grin*.

Checking Out Google Chrome

I bit the bullet and finally decided to check out Google Chrome.  It’s still in beta stages right now, but I see this new browser definitely having some potential.  I’m installing it right now, and I’ll let you know how I like it after I’ve played around with it for awhile.  I still use Firefox and Opera, but Firefox has really disappointed me as of late.  I wasn’t happy at all with Firefox 3.  Google Chrome takes things to a whole new level with many different features.  Check it out for yourself.

I Can’t Find Anything!

I keep telling myself I used to be more organized than this. Maybe I just think I was. Right now my entire life is one big disorganized mess. I haven’t been able to keep up with anything, and I feel like I’m running in circles. I’ve been making lists, but then I forget to check my list, so nothing gets done. I swear I’m feeling ADD here lately.

Hubby tells me I need something like Phentermine to give me energy to get everything done, but energy isn’t my problem. The problem is my mind running in 100 different directions at once.

Even my computer is so unorganized I can’t find anything. Normally I keep my computer more organized than anything, but I’ve been switching back and forth between my two computers and Hubby’s computer because of different things like the sound card going out on one or the psu dieing on another. I’ve got email, scrap kits, all kind of stuff spread throughout the 3 computers right now, and it’s driving me crazy.

I went to look for a photo earlier, and after searching 2 hours I realized it’s on a hard drive in the computer with the dead psu. That means pulling that hard drive out and putting it in this computer just so i can get to that one picture. If I had my backups I’d be fine, but I’ve been running around like a chicken with my head cut off, so I haven’t backed up any of my hard drives in weeks.

Ugh. That’s it. Tonight I’m sorting, organizing, trashing, and cleaning. If nothing else in my life is going to be straight at least my computers will be!
