now I REALLY have access

[juldea]

So, my last post, wherein I said I had internet access? That situation was only stable for about two hours. Then my computer began to blue-screen, and each time rebooting, would not actually load unless I removed the USB dongle I was using for wireless access. On the third or so incarnation of this, plugging the dongle back in didn't even get me a connection anymore. So I haven't actually had access for the past five days.

But now I can honestly and truly say I DO have access again! A trip to Microcenter netted me a new wireless adapter, and I have let it do its thing for 24 hours now with no crashing, so I'm going to call it a win and allow myself to settle down and browse and enjoy yon internets.

That said, the amount of LJ I need to catch up on is quite frightening. Seriously - utilizing the new "view friends page by date" feature, I need to go back to January 11 to truly catch up. After that was Arisia, Oregon, moving, and then living without access for two weeks. D: The question is, can I combine "view friends page by date" with friends groups, so that I can filter out all the communities and webcomics and RSS feeds that aren't as important as YOUR LIVEJOURNAL?! *goes to explore*

Good news for you: me being offline has really saved you from some seriously emo posts.

Probably not because OMG we missed you so! Welcome back! I hope all is well. Twitter feed is so damn big that I don't catch it all. Hope Thai'n'Pie es yummy.

I haven't been Twittering much either, so you have missed very little. I think my only twitter of note recently was when I saw "Chocolate Bock" on the menu at Christopher's and my eyes went O_O at those two words being put next to each other. The result was indeed to my liking.

Both the Thai and the pie (and other things from Petsi other than pie) have been very tasty so far.

Yup figured. Glad you are well, the ether was quiet....mostly. At least, YOUR lack of presence definitely left a void.

I'm up finalizing an exciting paper on Non-Compliance Exception Management for a client - OH so much fun you have no idea.

and I raged a bit at Facebook an people being stupid about jumping off its roof because of their ToS change rather than marching into their Executive Suite.

I'm going to take that to mean I'm generally spammy. :P ;)

It did take me a bit to figure out what FB meant in your tweets, but then I realized I didn't need to pay attention anymore, yay! ;)

Spammy. Whatever. I post a million times more. Such a pessimist. ;P

I just missed you; s'all. I'm an INFP. All 'motional 'n shit.

I will tell you what I tell my Directors and Sound Designer. I PREFER overcommunication. But that's me. I overwhelm other people when I do it so I temper it unless asked.

You've never had? I think it's vile. Of course you'd love it.

I thought it was quite good, yes. ;)

This is the very reason I have an "actual people" friends group.

Oh, I do have one of those. I was just wondering aloud in that post if that filter would stack with the "view friends page by date" feature. Turns out it does!
