well if it is anything similar to my pets, it could mean scratches, ripped out keys, falling off the couch, etc...

I don't usually make resolutions, but it popped into my head that I need to finally finish Dawn Twilight. It's been the WIP that just won't end, and even though I don't think people are reading it anymore, I am compelled to finish it just 'cause.
There's also a semismutty silmfic (say that three times fast) in the works for Inglor's First-Age Philandery challenge.
And now that I'm thinking about it, I ought to resolve to be a better challenge co-admin. Dude! |

My kid loves the screen, he can touch it and trace his (cookiecrumbsmagnet) thumb all over it, any assessories like usb sticks (jump drives), mouses, network cards ect ect are at risk as well. Nothing more exciting that to play with the antenna of the wireless card or so it seems. Oh and an absolute killer: juice spills over your priced lap top. If you think that when a cat pees over it is a disaster, imagine a cup of juice because the lap top (or keyboard) might be thirsty too (that's what your kid is thinking while you are panicking).
We should write a manual about this

| My girls (almost 20 months) are entertained by itunes. I turn it on, and they whack buttons. They've figured out that the spacebar pauses the music, and they've located buttons that skip to next and previous songs. I think they especially like the sense of control they get when they can actually make the computer *do* something. Oh, and they have found the power button as well. So far, with itunes to distract them, my laptop has survived well over a year of baby-whacking. |

I am trying to get back to writing with a will, I haven't written any for months and I guess my major one is to get a Faramir fic off the ground that I have had wafting around my head for about two years! It just never got further than the starting introductionary scene so i would love to get back into it.
It is just typical that this whim comes in my busiest term possible at university....  |

| I know what you mean, Ania. Nothing like a big work project with a tight deadline to make my muse sit up and say, "Great time for writing!" I wonder if I could manage to fake La Muse out when I actually have time... |
