So tomorrow is the big day. The Great Reformat of 2008. A day that will live on in infamy, or not, depending on how well I backup my files. My computer has too many programs, files, and whatnot on it currently, and it’s become rather fussy as of late. As the adage says, it performs much in the same way as old people have sex: slow and sloppy. Sometimes it just locks up and says PISS OFF to me in not so many words. Plus, Jesse reformatted last week, so I might as well do it too. It’s good to reformat every so often, though most formats are forced rather than chosen.
I am going to the dentist tomorrow and Jesse will have a meeting of the minds with our medical provider sooner than he would like due to an irritating eye problem. I think – and hope – it is allergies. Sometimes my allergies do rather funny things, but it’s more in the “splitting headache plus nausea” kind of way.
If the dentist appointment is long and gruesome, then the reformat may be delayed. We shall see.
What else? Oh yes, World of Warcraft’s expansion: Wrath of the Lich King started up this past week. Well done there, although I hear the servers were not really prepared for the onslaught of users. I wasn’t surprised. The servers weren’t prepared when I was in the Beta testing. Lord of the Rings Online’s expansion: Mines of Moria starts Tuesday. Both Jesse and I got it but as neither of us are nowhere near 50 (the current level cap), it’ll be a while before we see the xpac content.
