Shiny!

I have a new computer¹. There are lots of ways the two computers will talk to each other directly, but apparently the fastest way of transferring my gigs and gigs of stuff is via my ipod, which strikes me as a bit strange (I'm typing this on the new one while the old one copies stuff onto said ipod).

I'm happy, anyway. The new puter has arrived at the last possible moment to enable it to come to the US to meet unknownid & E, adamsmithjr, F & S, and onyxblue1, the_original1 & 'Thing 3'². Hoorah! And the hotel we're in this weekend has free wireless internet. I may never leave the room^3,4 :-)

¹Maybe I should remake this icon with a slightly smaller laptop!

²A moment of boredom lead to me reading dead OT threads on Patchwork Universe, which led to the realisation that they live near⁵ where I'll be, twiddling my thumbs while smiorgan talks about swords. Hoorah!

³Apart from to meet the aforementioned Patchworkers, of course.

⁴This also means I may be around on Patchwork during my advertised absence, but I don't know how much.

⁵That's the US version of "near", which seems rather further away than the UK one would ;-)
