The meaning of life, the universe, and everything

Yesterday yours truly turned 42. It's a respectable number, but according to Douglas Adams it's the meaning of life, the universe, and everything, so I'm expecting a fantabulous year filled with wisdom and success. ;-)

Birthdays remind me of all the wonderful people I have in my life. Thank you everyone for thinking of me and sending me well wishes. I love you right back! =D

I got a great birthday present from hubs. My little Mac Mini now powers two monitors, so I can see lots of stuff at once. It is awesome!

He didn't get why I wanted to monitors at first and he was puzzled as I plugged them in and they both showed the same thing for a moment. When I clicked the magic setting to make them independent - he said, "That's so cool. I thought they only did that in the movies." I always have a million windows open at once, and now I can see more. I love it!

Naturally, there's a doggie-den under the desk. ;-)

I also got keyboards. I tend to wear them out. Can't understand why, haha! Chocolate cake was another absolute highlight of yesterday.

Another great surprise came from Ind'Tale Magazine. Both Shadow of a Man and Flashback are nominated for the Rone awards! The next step is a reader voting session that will open in a couple of weeks.

Trust me, I'll be back to beg for your votes, because I really want to go to the final!
