lsdiamondVerily thou shouldst cross thy fingers. My system is trying to get back on its feet. The replacement RAM came yesterday, and I'm in the process of FDISKing, formatting, scandisking, and, if all goes well, reinstalling...
The HD was giving me hassles earlier...S.M.A.R.T. technology telling me the drive is about to die. It hasn't given me any error messages since deleting the old partitions and re-partitioning it, so I'm wondering if there was just some funkiness.
I hope that's all it is...hard drives are dirt cheap right now, but I don't want to shell out $40-50 more for this thing.
In other news...
I called Scooter's mom today about her impressive work on his costume. She's VERY cool, and agreed to look at my design ideas and sketches to see what I'm looking for. We'll either meet somewhere, or she'll send him to meet me at the library on Sunday. I need to find that swatch of the good stretch vinyl I got, so she can see the fabric I want. I would also *like* to build a prototype wing so she can see what it should do. I need brads. Meh. I don't know if I'll even have time, since I want a DECENT sketch.
Hmm...that's an idea... That would be so easy to set up. Closing would be no problem...but how would they open? That's the trick...
*goes to ponder further and see if D:\ is finished formatting yet*
