Happy Birthday, Shirley

Anyway, let's see... tomorrow I fly out to Maryland to begin the 2nd-phase of my trip around the country :P. Let's see... what did I do today... clean the gutters, vacuum the house, and oh yes, VIRUS SCAN MY LAPTOP >.<. How annoying. I think I managed to get a virus from a random neighbor's broadband network whose bandwidth I was "borrowing" (serves me right, I guess). So after I ran Antivirus & it cleaned over 900 files @.@, I realized that in the cleaning process, the Windows Registry Editor (regedit) program would not start anymore. If you're a bit more advanced in your computer saavy, you know that it's not a good thing. SO... I spent MORE time at Microsoft's website, reading Knowledge Base artcle after article, trying to fix it, but no luck. Then I switched methods, to transferring everything to my old hard drive, and am now preparing- upon return to Chicago- to reflush and reinstall everything AGAIN. meh.

I even brought the laptop with me to dinner so I could run virus scans while the adults talked ^^;;;. Oh yah, we went to this seafood restaurant in Chinatown [and here's the part where seafood lovers will start to hate me... *points at Vicky*]... ordered one of those "Chinese combo" thingys where the dishes are pre-set... including some yummy seafood soup... fish [of course]... king crab [seeing as though this is Seattle XD]... Peking duck... broccoli, beef, noodles,... some shrimp dish... etc. You get the idea. So yah, I ate well.

I think I'm done packing now... but I should get some sleep... see y'all on the other coast ^^;;
