oh dear god. It’s been too long again. Do I have good excuses, of course I do.  Some of them are quite silly.

My desk where I do #wineparty and such isn’t comfortable. I have this amazing table  –well it’s beautiful, from my mom’s vast antique collection but it doesn’t have enough drawers and it is the wrong height maybe? And my chair is weird. It’s falling apart and maybe too low or too high. I don’t know. I do love that Babbage sleeps on the top. Babbage my headrest

but somehow I can’t relax and write here.

I do better in my bed with my macbook.

Yes yes, I guess this is first world problems, but you know what—I can’t fix that. I do what I can for the rest of the world and I don’t trumpet it all over my blog like vomit on the sidewalk during mardi gras ok?

ANYway…

I am somewhat chagrined I like my macbook as much as I do.  The touchpad is gorgeous. The gestures easily learnable and they make sense.

But no good blogging program that isn’t stupidly priced. I’m using scribefire right now. Can you say picture problems?

Part of it is the ID10T issue with using a web interface (since I never have) but mars edit $40 bux SERIOUSLY? Yes it works, but is it as good as windows live writer, that I’m on right now?

Not by a long shot.

Why oh why can’t mac get a windows live writer for itself? Seriously everything else comes with the mac, why not that?

There are other reasons but this is getting long, so I’ll start another.
