Arrrrgh! (and "Awwww!)

Now that I'm using Internet Explorer more than I have for a long time, I went to the Widows Update site to see if it needed any patches. Is it more amusing, or more irritating, that the Windows Update site is one of the places my copy of IE is most likely to crash? Needless to say, after this happened twice (this time -- it's happened in the past, too,) I was unable to find out if I needed any updates or not. Hmph. They suggested that I upgrade from IE 5.5 to IE 6.0, but that file is HUGE! More bother. Microsoft. Feh!

Happier stuff: my favorite headline from yesterdays Sacramento Bee: "Diet of Young Women Linked to Breast Cancer." Cannibals take note; eat only men, or older women.

Also from yesterday's Bee: baby snow leopard!

Whole night gone in dealing with Sluggo. Sleep.

Forgive me if this is too nosey, especially since I'm more of an onlooker than a "friend," but what do you do? You seem to spend a lot of time at home up at either really late or really early hours. I carry crazy hours like that, too, but I'm usually at work. You must be a very motivated!

I enjoyed your interpretation of "diet of young women" -- the baby snow leopard article also brightened up my day : )

I've always been a night person, but for the last couple of years I've been looking after my elderly parents. My older sister spends some time here during the day, but I have the night shift to myself. It's mostly fetching and carrying and a bit of cooking and some doling out of medications, and lots of hurry-up-and-wait.

That is very honorable. Thank you for responding.
