The reverse list

torquillToday I:
Did my two homework problems for English
Read another chapter of the book
Replaced my taillight (finally, no more little red dashboard light!)
Typed up my English homework
Made lasagne
Found the USB/parallel port adapter
Hooked up the old HP printer to my laptop
Figured out how to configure printing in linux
Printed a test page, successfully (yay!)
Changed the ink cartridge, then printed my homework
Printed out a letter my mom needed from me
Put up the futon
Sorted the contents of a filing box and sent the necessary stuff to be shredded
Moved the little auxiliary table out from behind the futon
Set up the printer on the table
Successfully avoided doing any gardening, to give my hands and forearms a rest... that's harder than you might think, even though I'm to the point that I'm having trouble gripping things. The front strip is looking fantastic, but I'm itching to remove some of the stumps.
I'm still hacking up a lung, and the dust didn't help, but at least I now have a permanent printing station for my laptop. I haven't had that since college. Yay printing capability! Setup was almost painless, nowhere near the protracted battle I was expecting; there is something to be said for using HP printers under linux.
And the Concord library seems to be acceptable for weekend-afternoon studying; it's even open on Sunday, and has plenty of tables. Not a lot of people there, either.
