jazzfishCame home Thursday night, moved furniture out of the basement into the upstairs 'cos the people moving into the basement are moving in Sunday. Spent Friday moving boxes [thanks ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
uilos] and acquired a new processor for my puter, 'cos 750 mhz is starting to feel a little slow. Friday afternoon attempted to install said processor, and then a new graphics card, and fried the system. After some pounding [thanks jedibfa, and I owe you lunch or icecream or something] repaired the boot sector and made it work again. Today discovered that the processor is too fast to run in my antiquated motherboard, so I've got a $60 piece of chip jewelry until I get a new mobo. [Anyone need an AMD Duron 1.8ghz? Also, anyone need a Voodoo5 5500 AGP graphics card?] Then inventory at work tonight, which is why I'm here at all. Will spend tomorrow trying to make my room presentable and not have boxes of crap all over the place (I prefer my crap be randomly strewn about, and not in boxes).
Gah.
On the bright side, a new version of The Lion in Winter, with Patrick Stewart and Glenn Close. [And Jonathan Rhys-Meyers as Philip!]

Stewart said of the new project: "There's no way we are saying we can do a better job than Peter O'Toole and Kate Hepburn."
