a blessing on your head...

Thank goodness for friends! Bryan came by this evening and helped me get my new bookshelf together and upright, which I would really *not* have been able to go by myself. It took a bit of effort (and taking two bits off and putting them back again the right way after I got it wrong), but it is assembled and providing great entertainment for cats (until all the books get put back in). He was also nice enough to take away my old desktop, so I don't have to go through wiping the HD and trying to find someone on Craigslist who will carry it off. Still need to reformat the drive on my old laptop before I dump it, but I found a CD that came with my new laptop that has a nifty sounding "shredder" program on it...
