I havn&#8217;t done it in forever, but tonight I decided that it would be a good idea to reinstall Windows on my PC. Yeah. I was up all night last night backing everything up, and I&#8217;ll be up all night tonight trying to get everything back to normal.<\/p>\n<p>Considering that fact that I&#8217;d pretty much forgotten what I was supposed to be doing, I think things went alright! Windows in back, and I&#8217;m connected to the internet. That much should have been obvious. It took me a while to figure out how to reconnect the website as a network place, but then I finally remembered to use &#8220;ftp&#8221; instead of &#8220;http&#8221;. I was sweating there for a while! There were also some issues with graphical drivers, but I got that sorted out easily. I still haven&#8217;t found my audio drivers though, and let me tell you, trying to blog without music is like a day without sunshine. If I remember correctly, I had a hell of a time trying to get my audio working last time I did this too. Let&#8217;s hope I figure it out quickly.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.torrentialequilibrium.net\/images\/tmntstock.jpg\" alt=\"\" align=\"left\" \/>Today&#8217;s review is not really an object that can be bought, but rather more of a Christmassy memory for me. It&#8217;s also relevant now! More on that later though.<\/p>\n<p>I would just like to take a couple paragraphs to talk about Ninja Turtle stockings. Yeah, I suppose I should have grown out of these a long time ago, but my TMNT fanboyism is hardly waning. The fact that I&#8217;ve kept my turtle stockings (not pictured) over the many years is not a tribute to my everlasting love of the green guys, but rather a testament to what a pack rat I am. But these are cool so they get a free pass! How could you throw out something like that?<\/p>\n<p>So anyway, I bring up the turtle stockings because recently they have become part of The World&#8217;s Greatest Coincidence. See, I have two turtle stockings, Leonardo and Donatello. I suppose they sufficed when I was a child, but I&#8217;ve had a secret longing in my head to own the other two for as long as I can remember. Imagine my surprise one day when I was visiting my girlfriend&#8217;s house while her family was unpacking their Christmas decorations and I saw that they had two as well: Raphael and Michelangelo. Meant to be together or just dumb luck? I like the first option. It&#8217;s like we each had half of a pendant and came together to form the whole. It is clearly our destiny to be together.<\/p>\n<p>So yeah, that&#8217;s going to be my greatest Christmas story for years to come. You might wanna get used to it now. I will totally be telling our children and grandchildren and various other relatives this story, and I figured it was perfect for a blog entry too. Of course, it&#8217;ll still be some time before all four turtles are united under a single roof (we can&#8217;t afford a house on TRU salaries!), but they day that they are&#8230; <em>that<\/em> will be magical.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s been a long and sketchy night.
