oh YES

I am the woman!!! I just fixed my aunt's computer and made it internet accessible by installing a wireless pci card into the computer. I did it with great hesitation and more than a little trepidation because the first time I attempted such a stunt, the computer's motherboard decided to buy a one way ticket to heaven. Which is to say, it died. After much hullahoo, we finally got another motherboard in place and at first I wanted to just use some plug and play wireless adaptor, but that was a piece of crap.

I'm so happy I'm blogging away even while the computer is still not put together fully. I guess I just wanted to gloat about my awesome hands on skills.

Hm..well...since I'm blogging anyway, I might as well provide some ever so exciting updates. I watched a Chinese film called Peony Pavilion which documented this ambiguous and more than a little sensual relationship between two women. But the hottest scene of all was when one of the women had an affair with her coworker. That guy is HOT. His name is Daniel Wu, if anyone's interested in oogling. He's got a nice build.

One poor member of my family, due to a slip, is now condemned to walk around with an arm in the sling. I am designated her "right-hand woman" -- literally, since it's her right hand that's out of commission for the time being. I am learning how to serve, but sometimes, I admit, not as gladly as I should be, especially when I'm preoccupied with my own thing, which is about 99% of the time.

I have to finish Persuasion by 1/11 in time for my new book discussion club's inaugurated meeting. I hope I will be able to finish in time and then intelligently put in some input. My lit hum professors will be so proud.
