How’s this for a birthday cake?

I am pleased to announce that my failing 80GB hard drive, circa 2004, has now been replaced with a new 250GB hard drive. I now have the long and boring chore of reinstalling (or at least attempting to reinstall) my many, many applications and setting up my preferences again. Five years of applications means this is going to take me forever…
Tomorrow is Canada Day and the first day in a very long time where I have zero commitments, work or otherwise. I’m working early Thursday and Friday, so I’m not road tripping or going anywhere, but I’ll take the opportunity to try and clean up my disaster of an apartment and tackle the electronic backlog.

My five-year old Powerbook G4 is in the shop this weekend and at least tomorrow, hence all the mobile blogging when I would LOVE to be posting DSLR photos from the trip and the weekend. It’s Pride Week and today’s the parade, but I’m volunteering at The Bride’s Project. Fancy’s checking it out, though, before she heads back to Ottawa. I hope it doesn’t rain!
And I hope the hard disk isn’t too far gone to retrieve everything… all my photos and music are located on external drives, but I don’t want to lose all my application settings (eg. Firefox, Safari bookmarks are saved daily through Mobile Me). I’ll find out soon!
