trying not to complain too much

[incandescens]

My new copy of MS Office arrived today.

I am not impressed by Word 2007.

Oh well, I dare say I'll get used to it. Probably by the time I've finished bundling up my latest fic update.

I seem to have lost a fair number of songs on iTunes. Most of them I can reupload from CDs. Of the remaining ones... well, this is probably the point when I decide which purchased songs I actually really want to repurchase, and which I never listened to.

There were a couple of rainbursts today, but they both missed me while going to/from work. One takes one's little triumphs whenever they come.

Chorus: O suitably attired in leather boots
Head of a traveller, wherefore seeking whom
Whence by what way how purposed art thou come
To this well-nightingaled vicinity?
My object in inquiring is to know.
But if you happen to be deaf and dumb
And do not understand a word I say,
Nod with your hand to signify as much.
Alcmaeon: I journeyed hither a Boeotian road.
Chorus: Sailing on horseback or with feet for oars?
Alcmaeon: Plying by turns my partnership of legs.
Chorus: Beneath a shining or a rainy Zeus?
Alcmaeon: Mud's sister, not himself, adorns my shoes.
Chorus: To learn your name would not displease me much.
Alcmaeon: Not all that men desire do they attain.
