It doesn't always work the first time ...
May. 18th, 2009 10:09 pmI made one strand of another two-strand necklace tonight, cut the wire for the second strand a bit short, loaded it up with beads, tried it around my neck in front of the mirror to see if it would work before I closed the last crimp, and scattered beads the length of the apartment when the end slipped through my fingers.
In other frustrations, it took me far too long to figure out the right combination of server and user info to set up the new mail account that Compuserve is giving me to replace my defunct Classic account. I don't even really need another email address, particularly that one; since I got broadband I mostly kept that account open for the dial-up access when I visited my mother. At least I did manage to set up the POP account in the end, so I won't have to deal with their obnoxious ad-laden webmail site with added AOL cooties.
The local weather forecasters were just showing off their new 3d radar system, a few weeks before they expected to have to use it.
