so much to choose from!

I have succumbed to the lure of Netflix. Wheee :) This means I have wasted most of the work day fiddling with the queue. hee.

In other news...

-- Am still waiting for Season 5 of HL from the HL store. Bastards.

-- Have not done ANY WRITING in weeks. This is slowly driving me crazy, but I'm totally in Writing Avoidance Mode. *sighs dramatically*

-- Part of what I'm avoiding writing with is getting my computer up to vidding speed. Almost there! I can now rip and convert DVDs with ease. I could, theoretically, start vidding this very second (were I home, anyway) but for the lack of HD space. And so, I've become somewhat obsessed with ebay trying to score on a deal for an external HD. Fun! eta to say I should grovel with gratitude at Killa's feet for not only lending me the right software, but for letting me pester her with a multitude of questions. And also to Laura Shapiro who sold me her computer in the first place. :)

-- Haven't really started Yuletide story yet. Was hoping to get it going and finished before December but that looks unlikely now, mostly because I ended up with an assignment that requires me to reread a whole heck of a lot. Not complaining, but it's somewhat of a shame because I'd love to be writing now.

-- The real reason I'm in writing avoidance mode is because I feel, before I work on any more fanfiction (Yuletide aside), I have to work on some original fiction. And I'm just not in the write right headspace for that. And so, nothing gets done.

But hey, I have Netflix now! weeee.

Very glad to hear your computer is almost ready. I'm amazed at all the stuff you've done to it; I vidded on it for years without any of these upgrades, but I'm sure you'll have a much smoother time of it once you've got everything set up.

LaCie makes the best external drives. Hopefully you can get a deal on one of theirs. At a buck a gig, you can't really go wrong.

Oh hey, you're quick. I eta'd to thank you. LOL. :) Yeah, I've been looking at LaCie almost exclusively. Of course for the same amount of money, Fantom Drives would give me a bigger HD... But I should really stick with LaCie. Totally.

Thanks for the thanks. (:

I don't know anything about Fandom Drives, but maybe someone here in LJ-land can vouch for them?

Yay netflix! Just don't pull a lisa and end up keeping the movies for over a month... it gets expensive that way! :->

And my assignment also requires a ton of reading. Why did it have to be offer #3? *sigh*
