I spent 45 minutes this morning before my shower writing an update, but my computer decided to lock up before I could get it saved. I’ll do my best to reconstruct it from memory. :)

I’m fairly sure that Saturday night was a blast. Megan and I went out with Justin, Mark, JJ and Amy to a party where many other people I know but whose names would take too long to type out were present. Other than that, my memory of the details is a little hazy. *g* We got home around 2am, and Megan headed to bed cause she had to work Sunday morning. I played around on the computer a bit first, but headed bedward shortly thereafter.

Sunday morning, Megan actually made it up for work, though rumor has it she wasn’t the happiest nor the healthiest little server in server history. :) I’ll leave the rest of the story as hers to either tell or not in whatever level of gratuitous detail she sees fit.

As for me, I got up at the stroke of 8:30, which I found plenty early considering I had nowhere to be. I spent the first few hours of my day, aside from rehydrating, updating my PDA. I installed an entirely new version of the OS, moving from Sharp ROM 2.38 to 3.10. It’s a similar move as that of going from Windows 2000 to Windows XP: it’s a little faster, a lot prettier, and a helluva lot more customizable. I can create, destroy and edit menus, I can turn off my wireless card when I’m not using it, and I can change the background and icons (though that part requires Photoshop on the PC and a little manipulating on the Zaurus). Fun stuff. You can see a poor attempt at a picture of it here:

Gimme a break on the quality, kay? All I had to work with was my webcam. :) As you can prolly see, my penchant for the color blue has been sated.

After I installed the new OS, I started cleaning a bit. And then a bit more. And before I knew it, Megan was home from work and I’d been cleaning for four and a half hours straight. I was a busy boy. *g* The kitchen got scrubbed and scoured, the living room got beautified, and the ‘office’ and ‘dining room’ (both also known as The Other Side of the Living Room) were cleaned and rearranged a bit. Megan was so impressed she took me out to eat at Carlos O’Kelly’s. :) The only room I didn’t really get to that needs a lot of work is the bedroom, and so I mentioned to Megan that, since she has today off work and all… *g*

Yesterday evening found us in Target, where I found a new TV stand that I just obviously couldn’t live without, so I spent last night putting that together. The stand was on clearance for $19 down from $37, so I couldn’t very well pass up that deal, now could I? Our old TV stand has become our new computer stand, and our old computer stand has reverted back to its original form, that of a cardboard box.

And thus, you are caught up to right-now. I typed 1/3 of this entry on 1/2 of 1/2 of my monitors at work, and the other 2/3 on my PDA while I installed virusscan for someone in their office. Technology is fun. :)
