A few quick things...
Dec. 9th, 2010 04:00 pmI replaced the LCD in Lily's iPhone, but now the display doesn't light up at all. I then tried installing the old (cracked) one. It doesn't work either. So, apparently I have somehow fried the video in her phone. Drat. I looked around a bit online, but to no avail. I checked the connector again, and again, and yet again. It just seems dead. My guess? static discharge. Phone still boots. I can't tell if the touchscreen works, can't tell enough of what I'm doing. Ah well.
A new iPod Touch is $229. An iPhone upgrade for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kuzu_no_ha is either $99 (3G-S) or $199 (4G). How screwed up is that? Ah well. Not really ready to spend either on a replacement for a two year old, but it was a lot easier to deal with when she had her "own" to play with.
I meant to post the other day about something that really pissed me off. Since I can't remember now what it was, I guess it's wasn't that important.
I'm following this Wikileaks thing. I'm not certain how I feel about releasing US SECRET documents, but I'm entirely convinced that it is unsafe to have a penis in Sweden. Does it make me a patriot if I'm okay with leaking Sweden's secret documents and DDOS attacks on their government offices, but not ours? I doubt it. Still, I don't approve the Assange's tactic of threatening to release the key for the backup file: that feels a bit more like informational terrorism. I thought Scott Adams summed up pretty well on his blog today.
Otherwise... still trying to get my solo firm off the ground while keeping my day job going. House continues to be an ongoing struggle.jeep_squire and I put in new flooring upstairs, we have new bedroom furniture (courtesy of IKEA). Things look a lot better up there. I have a mountain of boxes to break down on the porch, and things like laundry and dishes seem to be losing battles.
I started my Christmas shopping. I have a fair bit left, but this is almost the earliest I've ever started. I'm hoping to get in the spirit pretty soon. I've been humming carols, but we don't have our tree yet or any decorations up. I feel like I can get caught up on stuff that won't wait, and it's keeping me from getting close to the stuff that I can put off.
Also, I've just been in a crummy mood much of the time. It's taken me forever to get over the cold I got when we came back from Disney. I think that, plus just the seasonal affective stuff is just keeping me grouchy. I'm feeling a little bit better today, but we got a lot done. For the most part, I just don't feel like doing anything. I think I'm a little creatively constipated: the way stuff at work is, I haven't made anything new for a while, and now I'm feeling trapped in a rut. I got out the iPhone/Cocoa programming books last night. I think that might have helped some.
