I bought you a crate of papaya

FILES RECOVERED! *big grin*

Apple store told me they couldn't do it at all, Scott did it in ten minutes! Amazing how very static I felt without access to it all.

I'm puttering around Ted's office, playing with my computer and everyone else's, downloading music, rearranging my grad app essays, nuzzling my old files, and happily basking in the glow of my new computer with all of my old work. Mum sent Legos to Ted's office for Eli and they've just arrived, so I have a feeling the afternoon will be filled with space ship building and castle construction. I remember them spilled out all over Peter's carpet and us in the middle, each of us trying to build ships that were far cooler than the others, and while mine were always very practical and ended up looking more like houses than anything else, Peter's would be wild and imaginative and actually look like space ships! He always knew how to use the special pieces, the ones with angles and extra nubs that are best used as wings? See, to me those were always rooftops, and it NEVER occurred to me to use them as he did; he was always so much better at that crap, and I have no doubt that Ted will be as well. No hard feelings: :)

After work I think we'll go pick up Eli from school and then Ted has Bagua, we'll do dinner, and then I'll get on the road back to Boston. I'm working at the restaurant tomorrow morning at 8am, there's a wedding I think, so I'll likely crash pretty quickly. Hurray for data recovery!
