Computer doctor just left, taking my CPU with him. Apparently I have a damaged hard drive. Luckily I've got the netbook.
Isn't your PC a somewhat newish acquisition?  boo hiss for damage.

yes, it's about 18 months old. Looks like it was damaged from day one and every time I use it ... it gets worse.  But he seemed to think he can transfer the data to a replacement hard drive -- don't wanna think about what that costs.

You know I looked. Padres are HERE! 
I am going to what is probably the LAST game of the season. Day game Sept 28. I have my Sharks games lined up.

Mark your calendars!  My son's preschool is having their 41st annual auction benefit on Saturday, November 5th (6-10pm) at the Janet Pomeroy Center near Lake Merced.  Tickets are $20/pair and $10 for a bottomless glass of wine or beer.  Gourmet food, and live music, to boot!   ;)

There's over 1000 auction items, including a Maui getaway, a week at a Paris apartment (great location), amongst many quality items.  

If you're interested in going and or have something to donate, please let me know! (I can provide a formal letter and or tax ID info)  Oh, and I think a "special KFOG personality" will (hopefully) emcee the event.  To be confirmed.  Fingers crossed!

I would love for you all to be there.  Maybe we can make this a club get-together!   :) :D ;D

*I'll post a link to the online auction catalog as soon as it's up.  I'm the person processing all the items...there's some good stuff with low starting bid prices.

Some of you may have noticed via FB that I flew home on Monday after planning on being in San Diego for a week. My mom passed away yesterday. Aug 12 Dad, Sept 13 Mom. Wow. I knew she wasn't well but things took a bad turn and I repacked in 10 minutes and got a quick flight home. Good support from everyone I work with, they made all my arrangements and I just needed to get to the airport gate. I think I'll be busy doing all the needed "stuff" over the coming months and really need my December vacation. Today is a day at the computer and errands. Gotta clean out my mom's email. Shouldn't be much fun. I want Chinese food.

Aww, lady.  So sorry to hear this.  I'd want Chinese food and a vat of Haagen Daz, too.  Hang in there.

Double-whammy.  Take care of yourself first, things will work out, they have to!  {{{{Alicat}}}}

Oh man Alison, I am truly sorry this has happened. I'm sure you helped them become very proud of the lives they lived.
