So, it's the night before the Night Before Christmas in my neck of the woods. A good time to spend time with family and friends, and all the usual traditions the season brings here. Which is, of course, why I'm playing on my computer.
Not just any computer, though. Oh, I was using that fancy Thinkpad Carbon earlier on this evening. I got pestered from work, apparently another crew hadn't figured out that this is time off, and they shouldn't be pestering, but they did. And I had to put together a quick report to send them. (Pulling files off USB thumb drives, putting them together with a quick write-up.)
After that, I decided to play around with some of the older cyber-critters on the ranch. Most of my older systems have been unplugged and packed away. However, to my surprise, I found that I'd left the little Thinkpad T30 powered up. So, here I am, all booted up into Puppy Slacko, enjoying the evening at a much more relaxed pace. Guess a Pentium 4 will do that for you...
Beyond all computer amusements, this is a time for a little quiet reflection. The year is winding to a close, and I hope it ends on a good note. It hasn't been the best of years, but it most certainly hasn't been the worst. I hope next year brings good things.
I hope it's a peaceful season for all, whomever and wherever. My best wishes and thanks to all who've stopped by. Hopefully you'll stop back again. I'll try to be a bit more reliable in my writing in the coming year. And maybe even a bit more informational as well.
And now, back to an evening with Slacko...
