pwned.

Or whatever the kids say these days.

T minus twelve hours and counting 'till The Knife.

Sigh.

There was one nice thing today. I ordered a remote for my camera earlier this week, thinking that I can hold the remote and use it with my right hand while holding the camera and composing with my left hand. I didn't expect the remote to arrive until next week, but lo and behold, it was in a box by the front door when I arrived home from work today. What was amusing (irritatingly) is that though the remote is smaller than those itty-bitty boxes of Dots you get at Halloween, it came in a box about twice the size of my head. No wonder they charged me $6.27 for shipping. That money must have gone to pay for all that oh-so-necessary packaging!

Ah well, at least it's here. I had a lot of doopid fun playing with it for about ten minutes before I decided the prudent thing to do would be to crawl into bed and put the covers over my head for a while. This early-morning insomnia is taking its toll.

I was tagged for a meme by elevendy-two billion people (okay, like, two or three) so I s'poze it's time I got around to doing it. It asks for four answers to each question, but four is one of those numbers I have trouble with, so I'm giving three answers.
