This first day has gone really well. A lot of the nervousness about calling has vanished once I’ve actually started doing the calling. My laptop is awesome, it’s the same exact model I had before. No USB, but I’ll find some way to get a zip drive working. Maybe buy one of the old parallel ones from cho cho. Too bad you can’t power a zip drive via parallel port. Hrmph.

I’ll probably just copy the novel over onto this machine, and regularly send updates to the other machine to back up onto zip disk.

Anyway, things are going really well, and I’m looking foreward to opportunities. Odd words to be coming out of my mouth, it seems. :)
