It's Here! It's Here!
I got home from work today and 2 big boxes with "DELL" all over them were under my carport...where I directed the FEDEX person to deliver them. Now this is such an honest neighborhood because they were HIGHLY visable from the road...but untouched none the less.
Anyway... My new puter is here!
I'm so friggin excited I can hardly stand myself!
I am writing to you guys in case I'm not online for a teensy bit. I have a lot of sites I'm going to manually transfer to the new set up so as not to transfer any old viruses (a precautionary maneuver). I haven't gotten a PC mover yet so I want to get at least our regular haunts jotted down so we have places to go when we shut this old thing down and boot up the new one. I'm writing down the addy's for some of our fave sites and emailing them to my Hotmail account. I'll also email myself some of my pics so I can have an av or two to hold me over till I get all the good stuff into the new system. I wish I had time to store the pics here but that would take forever from this old puter. I don't think the Pixie archives has all the pics stored that I have in my folders.
Oh wait! PF might have um all...ROFLMFAO!
Anyway...I'll be shutting down soon and I hope to be up and running by later tonight (not hopeful) or sometime tomorrow. If you don't hear from me please don't worry too much. Whenever Mr. Lixy and I do a "project" together...it's hardly ever happened that either of us needed to be hospitalized! But ya know...this is newer technology and I've gotta know when to shut my cake hole and when to straighten his damned ass out!
*giggle*
See You All Soon! Keep Your Fingers Crossed For A Smooth Transition! I Love You!

YAY!!! Good for you!!!
If you happen to still be on and see this.. one way you can move your bookmarks over easily is just move your favorites after you have zipped them and email them to yourself. Will save you a bit of time entering all of them...

I'm back!
OMFG...this is gonna take some getting used to! You should see what I see [now] as opposed to what I was seeing! And the space the new monitor and keyboard has afforded me...YIPPEE Kayaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa motha fucker!
So far, Vista has been fairly easy to navigate and has lent mucho "help" along the way. The only thing I'm really having trouble with is this friggin mouse! I had an optical with a thumb roller ball and I didn't ever have to scroll/piddle/smacktheshitouttathething to make it do what I want.
I have the program for the old mouse [my fave] but haven't set that up yet. Till I get the old mouse running...Mr. Lixy will hear more explitives from me than when I shave my pubes with a dull razor!!!!
But other than that...I'm in love!
The new monitor is stupendous! The keyboard is adequate. Haven't navigated all the programs yet but I was anxious to get back here and say WooooooooooooooHooooooooooooo!!!!!!!
BBS!

Oh honey...if only I knew how to "zip" things [and I hear that concept constantly] I would!
Should we PM?
I love you ya know...but I have never "zipped" a thing other than the fly on my pants...as far as I know.
So lets talk zip and email...k?

When you get that high-speed internet thing going, you shouldn't have to zip them at all...favorites can be saved in very little disk space, all they are is just the links with their preferred names, & shouldn't carry any virus bugs to the new puter (unless the link itself infects when you click it)...and your new anti virus should block most all the nastybastards as well...
