Posting from feldspar

OK, so, I got X working on feldspar. Compiz, for some reason, refuses to run and instead locks the whole computer. OK, well, Compiz + XFCE is a bit heavy for this computer anyway.. so I decided to finally give OpenBox a shot. It’s really fast, everything is up in no time and it’s amazingly customizable. I haven’t even started playing around with the scripts that other people have written yet. I think I’m gonna forgo Compiz + XFCE for OpenBox on Ophiuchus when he gets here.

I got the deal with newegg sorted out, newegg was still looking for my old card, but I had put in the details for my new card (the old one expires at the end of this month). He should be here tomorrow (Thursday) or Friday.

There are two cats here now. Black one is Uhura, the Orange one is Zoey. They hate each other. Orangey likes to rub up against everything in site, including me. She’ll rub her body along my legs while I’m cooking or washing the dishes, which is not the ideal time for such an activity. It’s really funny the way she leans her body when she does it, though. Also, she sheds like crazy. These two activities may or may not be related.

I just burned myself trying to light this candle with a standard bic lighter… ugh. Ow ow ow. I hope this doesn’t blister.

I was gonna write more but the cat and customizing OpenBox has distracted me so much I forgot what else I was gonna say.

Good night.
