Day two...or is it three? I can't remember, all I know is that things are quite large now when I look at the M90 screen. I have been spoiled with the high resolution that I have forgotten what it is like to always have to use the scroll bars and heck, even when I hit the "Start" button, there are programs I cannot access because they are way right of the screen. It is a tad bit aggravating, but at least I can access the programs I need to get to. For the most part. Let me tell you, you haven't seen a PowerPoint Presentation until you've seen it in 640x480 with little green squares filling the parts that have colours or dark shades. Sometimes it is almost mesmerizing and all I need to hear is the Scooby Doo time travel sound and I feel I am in a different place.

Okay, enough of the M90 drama for now as the wheels are in motion to assist in getting the problems resolved. The only interesting bit that happened today was the hard rain that occured around noon. The streets were pretty flooded out and of course the traffic was almost to a stand still. The weather has been quite soupy to say the least and based on past travels here, I've been drinking a lot of water which in turn is a good thing I guess as my system is pretty well flushed to the point that it is clear going in and clear coming out. Except the slight shade change when I have a Diet Coke or pineapple juice at the Chow King or Jollibee. Two of the restaurants that my mum and dad favour when they come here to visit my grandmum.

Right, over the "hump" and headed towards the weekend now, it is all downhill from here.

Oh I almost forgot! Congratulations to my good friend Kim and her husband as they welcomed their new son, Reid, into the world yesterday which was my today. Gotta love that date line thing..
