This is sooo not the time to have a brain freeze...

I've been having 'issues' with this computer for the last few days. It keeps crashing when I'm writing here or in Yahoo mail. Paul has a theory that it has something to do with the new version of YIM and it's mail checks. So, he wants me to do a longish post or email with YIM completely off.

Now, normally, me blathering on for hours about something isn't a problem, but... I don't wanna lose anything important in the crash, if there is one. So, I'm sitting here, staring at this nagging blinking cursor... not having clue one what to say.

Shit.

Well, Paul, we can rule out it's being a 'time issue', because that up there took me about 15 minutes... lol.

I'm watching the Pink Panther. The cartoon, not the movie, tho I do like that, too. I found a tape of Pink Panther cartoons a few years ago and bought it. I'm not much for jazz, but I do like this music.

Heh... if it weren't for Bugs Bunny, I'd not recognize very much classical music, either. I don't like most of that whiney stuff, but if I happen to hear a snippet of a song used in those cartoons, that's cool.

Speaking of music, (and here's where I'm starting to care about losing this now...), yesterday I was thinking about playing Neil Young again while I cleaned the house. I can't get him outta my head now (nor do I really want to, anyway) even more than usual because of something Emma said in my comments. She left a bunch the other day and I loved every one of them, but she really got me with the one about my Mike post. I've been wanting to say thank you, Emma, for days, but between being overwhelmed at your kind words and the fact that we keep crashing like Billy Joel or Richard Petty, maybe, I've not done it yet, so I'm doin' it now...

Emma, what you said was the thee most astonishing and appreciated thing I've ever been told about the way I write. Or, am, really. Because what ya see, is pretty much what, or who, I am....

I suck at lying or playing games, like trying to be something I'm not, so if I were doing that here, it'd be obvious as hell, I believe. Sometimes, though, I do get glimpses of parts of me I didn't really know were there anymore, if ever. Sometimes, I surprise me.

I've been wondering all along how much of that to take to heart and feel good about.

Between you, Veloci-Sweetie and Rob, I'm leaning toward "most, if not all" of it.

Yes, you Kim. I remember what you said about my "Eric and the salad dressing" post.

And, Rob, your comment on the Memorial Day post really got me, too.

I love you guys. Thank you more than I could ever articulate.

Okay... I don't seem to be crashing here. Cool. Must be the YIM, then.

Alright... the plan is, then... (loosely): Clean da house. Won't take that long. Do Munu linkfest, which I already have the groundwork laid for. Make Eric a really good porkchop dinner. Run around nekkid as often as possible (which is why, denizens of Pennsylvania, it is literally COLD right now) til tomorrow sometime, seein' as how George ain't here cause he went to Joisey to help his kid put an engine in a Bronco.

But, FIRST... gotta post this, which is excellent since it seems I can, now. Just hafta keep YIM off when I wanna write, is all. Fix it if we can, or this'll work fine, too. Whichever. Long as I'm not 'truncated' anymore.

Talk to ya's later.
Peace.

1 Yayyy!

No crashy badness! (To quote our fearless potentate Pixy.)

Keep testing it out, Stevie, but it looks we've nailed the culprit. If this assessment holds up, we'll downgrade you back to the old YIM until Yahoo gets all its shit in one sock.

**fingers crossed**

2 Okay, Honey.
I KNEW to keep the old YIM program. I did NOT delete it when this new one took over because of what it said about not having finished downloading, or whatever...
Just in case.

Heh.

4 About cartoons: I love watching the Looney Tunes cartoons - those with Bugs Bunny and the Road Runner. There was a segment of them made where they were just soooo 'slap-stick' that even today they're still hilarious.

Maybe it's just the way that they made the sound effects more.....realistic. Dunno, but they're still LMAO funny.
