| a dorky interlude. |
[Feb. 24th, 2007|01:30 am] |
I got a four-dollar scanner from the Goodwill a little while back, and I thought I'd share some tidbits about how I got it to work a week or several ago. (If I were caught up with my receipts, I'd be able to specify when I got it. Something else that needs doing...) ( dorkery. ) So, I'm pretty pleased with how everything worked out.
I didn't go into work toda, but I will for the next few weeks. Brian will be unable to drive, due to his worsening cataracts, and I'll be the onsite guy. Jim has pretty much shielded me from much of the time-sapping customer-interaction aspects of the job, so it'll be a tough few weeks.
Carin and I went out for dinner with my parents this evening, as we do on many Fridays. We got a call on our way up from my father, saying she'd received a death threat via email. It sounded familiar to that hitman scam that was reported on Snopes recently and sure enough, that was it. We went out for dinner and learned that you can apparently put moussaka into pizza, and it's delicious.
We're now a bit more ready for Caitlin-and-entourage's visit; we have extra towels and sheets. Still, it's going to be pretty crowded in here.
