House! Writing! Opera!
Jan. 16th, 2006 07:09 pmWhile looking for the disk that came with my iPod, I found a stash of scribbles and notes and short bits that I'd been looking for (but lost). Aiii, with the writing and stashing! I've *got* to stop that.
In order to keep track of this stuff I decided to type up all of my fragments and notes and things and keep them in a separate writing journal. I asked a week or so ago about having two journals open at once and was told that a separate browser was the way to go. I downloaded Firefox and was very pleased to find that it worked. Woohoo! Firefox, unfortunately, seemed kind of slow and clunky, so I uninstalled it after a couple of days.
I downloaded Opera today and so far I'm loving it big time! Its claims to be faster than IE certainly held up. I decided to load up SG-1 episode guide on the SciFi Channel site. It's pretty image-heavy, so I figured it would be a fair test. The first header still hadn't shown up on IE when the Opera one was about half-loaded! Opera just may become my browser of choice. It's got the foxmonkey Seal of Approval (tm).
House or Hugh Laurie fans probably already know this, but he's Playboy's 20Q interview subject this month (February issue, Adrianne Curry cover). I've only read a few of the questions, but a couple made me laugh out loud. If you'd rather buy the issue and read it yourself, don't click the cut. :-)
J, I typed this up with you in mind, so don't say I don't love you. ;-)

Back to the writing! In other news, I luuuuuuuuuuuuuuurve this keyboard. ::le happy sigh::
