I've spent most of today messing around with this computer--something bizarre happened to it last night, and I suddenly had no task bar! And things were opening crazy and closing even crazier. It was all very odd and sudden. I finally got it to reboot and hit F12, restoring it to last working configuration. Victory! Then, the internet totally went wonky on us--we ended up reinstalling the Belkin software, and now, finally, we're fixed. Unreal.
I wonder if I should do another poll titled "So, after the last poll, how many of you have had pizza?"
My son and I have--pepperoni with cheddar and mozzarella. Mmmm very delicious.
The reason for the poll in the first place? I was on the phone yesterday with Nick, who is truly enjoying having his flat and a kitchen to himself. Yesterday he made pizza and proceeded to tell me about all the salami and cucumbers he was putting on it.
CUCUMBERS? Whoa, now wait a minute--CUCUMBERS? On a PIZZA?
He thought I was strange for my reaction and I thought he was strange for doing it in the first place! So, I thought I'd stick a poll up and see if anyone else out there put cucumbers on their pizza.
Turns out it is not a German thing as the other Germans on my flist didn't check cucumbers...only Nick did. So, I think it is just a Nick thing.
When he comes to see me in late Feb. and all of March, we're just gonna have to have pizza with cucumbers so I can give it a whirl. No rush for me to try it before then--I have my doubts how it might taste. Hmmm.
So, now that my computer works again I can get back to that writing thing. Nick's already gone to bed, does not feel well and so sleep called early tonight. Sigh. But it is probably good since I messed around all day and am very behind in my word count as a result. YIKES!
