kayre | Computer weirdness and other stuff

Last night my computer crashed very thoroughly... had to reboot twice, including the Mac magic “rebuild desktop” thing, before I could get things working again. (Note to self: 5 applications running simultaneously is at least one too many.) Then all seemed okay, except that my Netscape address book had disappeared. I wasn’t worried, because I figured another “rebuild desktop” would probably take care of it; and in any case Netscape 6 has this neato “Collected Addresses” file where it stores the sender’s addresses of all incoming mail, so I could probably get back nearly everything easily.

This morning I popped into Netscape to send some mail, and the address book is back... in reverse alphabetical order! And no, there’s no spot to click to reverse order. Weird.

In other news, my ankle definitely needs a rest after the organ-playing marathon on Sunday, so I’ve chosen stuff I know well for this week, and am taking the day off from practice. I’ll clean the house, visit a library or two, catch up on mail, stuff like that. I do have two piano pieces I should look at today. Just one piano kiddie to teach today.. which means I can be home in time for dinner.... which means I need to plan a menu and shop... not such a lazy day after all!
