An odd sentiment.

Made a mistake this evening. Flipped the wrong switch on my desktop/datavault computer, and when I turned it back on, it locked up in the boot phase.

Normally, I'd be frelled.

Except that Windows Millenium has this nifty System Restore feature which ironed out the kinks, easy as pie. Problem solved.

Only took me half an hour to remember to use it.

Hate to say it, but score one for Microsoft.

Good night, all.

Close entry.

A recommendation.

Story rec: The Cruelest Month. By Starlet2367. (That's the only name I've got.)

Angel. Season two. After Epiphany, before Disharmony. Lots of foreshadowing and setup for things to come. And a rocking story to boot.

Not the worst of days.

A name meme

Snurched from celli, who got it elsewhere.

1. What does your first name mean?

Apparently it's from the Norman, "of Brieuse", a place in France.

2. What does your middle name mean?

I have no frelling clue, and some day I am going to take steps to amputate it. My folks hung me with a name with no meaning so as not to make me "the Third". I have received nothing but grief from it. < /rant >

3. What does your last name mean?

One admitted to the privilege of bearing arms (generally conferred by a king in an elaborate ceremony).

4. So what does your name mean when put together?

A man-at-arms from the village of Brieuse, with some severe mental problems.

5. What would you have been named if you were the opposite gender?

No idea. Best guess would be "Isabella", because both sides of the family seem to have a tradition of passing names down the generations.

6. Any other name oddities?

Twice in the past year, someone took my credit card, looked at it, and commented that I had a name that sounded like a comic-book superhero's. I don't know.
