so i've been kicking this laptop whenever i get a chance, and i've gotten it down to where it SHOULD be a slick, fast, eel-like machine... and still it lags. And i've banged my head on walls, trying to come up with SOMETHING else to do to it, to help it quit limping like a paraplegic in a relay race.
I didn't DEFRAG IT!
oh god, if i didn't, i doubt anyone else has--prolly since 2003, when this thing was new.
dur. (elapsed time, 20 minutes: progress:3%. ACK!)
i'll feel better when this thing just RUNS.
...speaking of repairs. I HAVE to get my break pads replaced. I bought the pads more than 3weeks ago, and just haven't been able to coordinate with my cousin/mechanic to get them PUT ON.
To Do Today:
+ Note special order #s on special order list.
+ Transfer ~30 post-it notes worth of info into appropriate binders.
+ Sticker ~40 comics/freebies to give away at library seminar this evening.
+ Co-teach drawing seminar at local library.
+ Read7 6 Chapters' worth of Entrepreneurial Text. (or as much as possible)
+ Complete7 6 Chapters' worth of Entrepreneurial Text Exercises. (or as much as possible)
+ Do NOT get distracted by highly tempting Store Database project until Homework is complete.
(with the laptop formatting, i CAN'T work on the highly tempting Store Database project.)
+ Do NOT ignore Customers.
(putting up a sign that we're closing an hour early...to do good works with children at the public library. *turns on halo*)
+ Tend Cat boxes.
+ Get a LONG shower.
+ Get some good sleep.
+ Pack a Lunch for tomorrow.
+ Love on Kevin. (FAVORITE TASK OF THE DAY! :D )
::EDIT:: litter boxes and lunch packing will have to wait til tomorrow morning before class.
Drats. I was hoping that the list would make me feel more focused and awake. No dice. Guess I'll actually have to try DOING things on the list. ;)
