the logic board that the apple store installed back in january blinked out on me last night. so it is back in the store for a new new logic board. what the hell? is this my bad luck? am i doing something wrong with my computer? i don't understand. i am VERY annoyed. of course i am hoping it might happen again, and then i can raise customer service hell and get a new computer AGAIN. though i find that unlikely.
but while i was at the apple store, i ran into layne, a fellow regent alum. i knew he and his family were in the area, but i didn't know how to get a hold of them. it was like finding a long lost relative, or tribe member, or something like that. we caught up for a bit, shared our post-regent culture shock, and made tenative dinner plans with his fam after my trip out to the cold cold east. it was good to see a familiar face, that has shared the same experiences i have, that i don't have to explain that there is a city also named london in ontario, not just in england. little things like that go a long way.
my new obsession: borrowing cook books from the library. why did this not occur to me before? i have some jamie oliver and moosewood books. i'm trying to introduce some tasty vegetarian dishes to my meat eating family. don't get me wrong, i like meat; i just need some variety.

I've been making some very yummy things out of the Moosewood Collective (it's got a yellow cover and purple binding). I'll have to show off some of my favorites WHILE YOU"RE HERE!!! YES!!!
I know the feeling of seeing someone from Regent and feeling like it's a taste of home. It's as if they get where you've come from, even if you never spent time with them while you were there.
hi gilchrists! getting a comment from a long lost regent friend is almost, but not quite as exciting as seeing a regent friend face-to-face. you know what i mean.
