It was a whim that seemed like it needed to be put to action.  I think, once the initial shock wears off, most people are more surprised by me actually changing something without a whole lot of reason attached than they are with the act itself.<\/p>\n<p>It has been confirmed that <a href=\"http:\/\/cgi.ebay.com\/ws\/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;ih=016&amp;sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&amp;viewitem=&amp;item=260073389171&amp;rd=1&amp;rd=1\">the 4GB SD card<\/a> needs to be formatted with FAT32, and so will not work with my older iPaq.  However, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.compusa.com\/products\/product_info.asp?pfp=cat3&amp;product_code=334914&amp;Pn=2GB_Secure_Digital_Flash_Memory\">the 2GB cards<\/a> can be formatted with FAT16, so my plan is still a go.  <a href=\"http:\/\/cgi.ebay.com\/ws\/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;ih=015&amp;sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&amp;viewitem=&amp;item=250066779149&amp;rd=1&amp;rd=1\">The battery<\/a> arrived the day that I was griping about it, and has been installed.  It&#8217;s working wonderfully.  So is the extra battery that came with <a href=\"http:\/\/cgi.ebay.com\/ws\/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;ih=001&amp;sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&amp;viewitem=&amp;item=110077726642&amp;rd=1&amp;rd=1\">the PCMCIA sleeve<\/a>, which arrived the day after the battery.  <a href=\"http:\/\/cgi.ebay.com\/ws\/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;ih=012&amp;sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&amp;viewitem=&amp;item=220071173381&amp;rd=1&amp;rd=1\">The wireless card<\/a> is on its way.  My Frankenstein project is almost complete.  I haven&#8217;t been able to actually pull shit like this together in a while, so I&#8217;m getting pretty giddy.  And here I was all ready for the usual &#8220;nothing will work together the way that you want it to&#8221; usual state of affairs.<\/p>\n<p>Lucky me. :)<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve got a new piece of LARP fiction up at <lj comm=\"nambitions\">.  I&#8217;m really hoping that game continues, but its attendance is seriously flagging.  So, if you like LARPing Vampire: the Masquerade (with a Requiem feel, I&#8217;m told), and are within reasonable range of Lansing, hit up <lj user=\"kelcore668\">, and let him know.<\/lj><\/lj><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve got a video game proposal and DJ bio to write next, and I&#8217;ve become unblocked, thanks to <lj user=\"defectivewookie\">, in regards to <u>The Glass Crown<\/u>, so I&#8217;ll be doing some good writings tomorrow.  Actually using a day off as a writing day, instead of a slack day.  Go go gadget motivation!  There should be updated word counts and such on Monday at <a href=\"http:\/\/davidmcrampton.com\/\">the site<\/a>.<\/lj><\/p>\n<p>Also, I owe five people snippets of fiction from a meme a while back.  I haven&#8217;t forgotten, and I think I have something to write.  You may have to huddle to get the entire story, though. :)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, I went and got my head shaved today.
