Happy Christmas and all that I got invited to a New Year's party, for once. Small world, innit, when a college roommate shows up as the dance teacher at one's second cousin's wedding reception because her partner is in the wedding party...

Hope you all have a wonderful 2008. I can't believe I have hardly written a word since before Christmas...knew I wouldn't, what with all the stuff going on, but it's still a little sad. Oh well. One can only hope that this situation shall be remedied in the coming year...

Because I really want to get out of here. It's my last day at work before 2008. Weird, huh? Hope you are doing something fun this holiday!

Somehow I managed to delete my entire Pictures folder off my desktop. It's at least three years worth of photos, and that was just what I downloaded specifically to this computer. There was stuff on there from at least 2000, though, from my previous computer, and possibly even older files from my very first computer in college.

Blast, annoying as all hell, but it's only data. I don't think there was anything important in there, unless you count all the *ahem* Orlando Bloom photos (hi-res, too, some of them), photos of other hot guys I crush on (juvenile, yes, but a girl's got to have something), movie stills, LJ icons, Lord of the Rings manips, banners...I could go on and on.

At least my digital camera photos are stored in a different place, so they weren't touched.

The galling thing? This happened somehow when I was backing up my files onto an external drive, so I could free up space on my comp. I must not have been focused on the right window and somehow picked the wrong file to delete. Well, I certainly cleared out some space. I've got a gig more than I used to. Ballocks.

*goes off to troll the internets for pictures

Today is a very good day. Pirates 3 comes out on dvd, Jim Butcher's latest Codex Alera book, Captain's Fury, comes out today, AND I had a 40% coupon for a dvd box set, so I am up to Season 5 of Buffy.

Jen is a happy girl. If only work wasn't in the way. I'll still probably finish Captain's Fury before the day is over, regardless.

And maybe Saturday, a Pirates marathon at Mike-of-NaNo's apartment. Whoo!
