Illumination: The Fyrefly Jar Weblog

The journal of a new mom and freelance editor who blogs about both when she has the time!

The new computer is up and running ... much faster than the old one now that I have that duel core thing going. And it's a third smaller. Now I just hope it runs three times longer than the other one.

Because of this month's computer issues I have given up on trying to catch up with the 100 Words for May. It's disappointing but I just didn't have the access to keep posting and writing. (Yes, I know, I could have grabbed a pen and paper, but every second has been used to catch up on work. How sad.)

In the "Amy is moving toward a real life" column, I will be seeing the new Indy movie this week. Huzzah! :) Just the soundtrack should give me an energy boost, if only for a couple hours. ...

    Congrats on the working machine. R.'s been keeping me up to speed on your computer ups and downs at our lunches, and I hope this one is a winner.

    I too have to admit that I've been less successful than I'd anticipated at 100 Words. My experiment of getting entries up in a timed fashion was resulting in very few good items. I don't know if that should have stopped me — bad writing has its place in getting you closer to the good writing — but based on my emotional state in the beginning of the month, I'm not sure I even want some of the other entries to see the light of day. Very grim. I think I'll let this one fizzle out.

    I broke my movie fast with Iron Man this Sunday. Would you believe I hadn't seen anything in the theaters since Snakes on a Plane? This summer seems to have many opportunities to make up for lost time.

    R loved Iron Man. I like RD jr but I don't think I'll be catching that one. Too many other great things to see coming up!

    I hear ya with the 100 Words. Bad writing certainly does have its place.

    Thanks, I will try to give things to the computer gods to ensure this one runs well.
