La Vie de TKP update!

[lettered]

Thanks, Sue, for the St Paddy's e-card! *much love*

I got my laptop!

Vista: is very Apple-y, in that it's very "user-friendly" and never lets you see where all the files really are and where your computer does it's computing. Which for the most part is fine with me, except when it's not. It's all very pretty, anyway.

The "cancel or allow" thing is nice, actually, because too many times I open a .exe when I don't actually mean to, and I like knowing what my comp is running at all times. The problem is, it reminds me of the Mac commercial, which reminds me of the computer porn someone wrote about it, which just kind makes want to write smut. Mac probably got syphilis from that fic and then had a system crash. Your parents warned you about safe sex on the internets! or at least mine do.

Question: I had this client dl'ed on my old machine that allowed me to use all kinds of IM do-hickeys at once. I can't remember what it was called though, so can anyone tell me what they use and whether they like it?

I installed Word and World of Warcraft, and downloaded Firefox and Semagic, so I'm pretty much good to go. And write fic.

I know. Three exclamation points. Three.

Whee! Welcome back!

I know Miranda is an IM client that does that, but I haven't used it enough to know whether I like it.

It wasn't Miranda, but maybe I'll try that. Although considering Serenity that creeps me out a lot.

hi hi hi! *glomps*

[my_daroga]

*is glomped* I feel like we have lots to talk about...

[tkp.livejournal.com]

YES! But I always feel that way with you.

Aaaaaaaaand, what kind of fic would you be writing? :)

[tkp.livejournal.com]

funny you should ask, as I was writing Angel/Connor. FOR YOU. Because it's your bday. Also because I couldn't get it together for Kita's bday and I thought I could for yours. But it still won't be done in time. BUT at least now I know what I'm doing! Kinda.

[ros-fod.livejournal.com]

OMG REALLY???

*squeals at ear-piercing levels*

[tkp.livejournal.com]

Yeah but it won't be done for a while. But I am very happy I finally have some kinda direction on it.

Yay for new laptop!

...someone wrote porn about the Mac commercial? How did I miss this? Linky?

I used to have an IM thingy on my computer too that did like everything (AIM, msn, Yahoo, ICQ, I think), but I can't for the life of me remember what it's called. I stopped using it ages ago. I think there were things about it that I didn't like...

Mac/Guardian slash. Rec was courtesy of kita0610. Fic *very* NC-17.

Semby. There is a mac_hearts_pc *comm*. Dude.

There were things I didn't like about my IM client, but it was useful for the few strays who used Yahoo or MSN instead of AIM. Oy. I wish I could remember what it was!

[semby.livejournal.com]

WOW. You have opened my eyes to a whole new world of internet crack! That fic was just... wow. I don't know if I dare explore that comm...

I remembered my old multi-purpose IM client! Well, not so much remembered as Googled and then recognized, but these things bug me when I can't remember. Anyway, it was Trillian. If that helps at all.

[tkp.livejournal.com]

I know, right? I LOVE your icon.

Trillian! That was totally it! Thanks so much! I didn't even know what to google for, so that helps out a lot.
