Tonight is significant for a couple reasons. No, it’s not because I’ve stayed up past two on three consecutive work nights (I do that on a regular basis), nor is it because of the neat projects I just finished at work.
It’s my inaugural blog and e-bay sale!
However, I can’t post this live tonight (can’t remember my typepad user name…I thought I ALWAYS used jm4727 for this very reason: that I might forget what it is and have to go through the hassle of having it e-mailed to me.) So, I’m blogging in the ugly MS Works–my new laptop’s default word processor. When I find some time, I’ll be converting to the MS Office suite. Thank Spring Arbor University for $15 educational pricing on the ENTIRE professional package!
Anyway…so I’m blogging (I’ll have to add this word to the software dictionary…I’m getting sick of thinking I’m writing typos when that squiggly red line busts out) for the first time, and I’m selling my beautiful Nikon F100 package, complete with three lenses, the vertical control grip and a stud flash. Looks like the auction will be a success, but we’ll know for sure in about…let me check…40 minutes. I’m contemplating staying up for the close, but I’m not sure yet. Might just set my alarm and get some shut eye instead.
Oh–another cool thing about tonight before I close: this is the first REAL time using my laptop on our wireless network. Fun stuff. Get up, check the weather, sports, all that good stuff. I’m going to have some real fun with this…
Later.
