state of the valis union

[valis2]

Website: 35 products photographed and set up in the new program. 55-60 more products left to go. Then the tweaking begins. All of the descriptions need to be overhauled, and the wrinkles ironed out (privacy policy verbiage, etc.).

Etsy/eBay: Holding its own so far. Not incredibly busy, but steady, at the least. EBay is nearly fully stocked (a challenge to keep up), and Etsy has several things ready to list (can't list them all at once, need to continually space things out).

Parental units: Coming over Saturday.

House: Needs to be cleaned for parental unit visit.

Computer: NEW COMPUTER ORDERED HOMG HOMG HOMG. I totally went overboard. I don't want to talk about it. Okay, maybe I do want to talk about it. Specs: Dell XPS 9100 Intel Core i7-960 processor 8MB L2 Cache, 3.2 GHz. 18GB RAM. 1TB hard drive. Blu-ray player. 24" monitor. HOMG. I am dying to get it. I am also completely sad about my old one going the way of the dinosaur. Thankfully, I am giving it to my sister. It still has 4GB RAM, after all, and a Pentium 4, and a new vid card, and it's not bad for a seven year old computer. Though it is really really really noisy.

Husband: Adorable.

Pictures: GRAH. I HAVE SO MANY PICTURES. Prepare yourselves for a picture avalanche, coming soon.

Um. So there you go.

Happy Birthday dear valis!

Have a great day surrounded by the people you love.

And for the next 365 days, I wish you health, success, joy and fun. Oh and yes, always a sharp pencil and a sheet of paper just in case!!
Hugs penball.

P.S. there is a small gift waiting on my page...

You are such a dear, dear person to remember me, and to write me lovely fic!!! I can't thank you enough, sweetheart.

And yes, I would love to have paper and Sharpie pen next to me at all times! I often do, actually. Just in case. :)

You're awesome!! Thank you!

I can't believe we've finally gotten to the place where we say "TWENTY-[NUMBER]." That was always such a futuristic kind of future thing.

And that my new computer has a terabyte associated with it is even more futuristic and crazy.

I AM SO EXCITED!!!

And thank you! Your birthday dance is so beautiful. It brings tears to my eyes. Good tears.

You sound like me when I get my new laptop. I really wish I could have gotten more than 8 gigs of memory but that was the limit for the laptop I got.

And for my next trick, I shall reveal to you that my father is giving me his old laptop! So now I finally will have a laptop, too! Truly I am blessed. This is so awesome beyond belief. Now I can write crappy fanfic everywhere!

Happy birthday, Valis! You're one of the best people on LJ and I'm thrilled to see you post every time. Hope you have a marvellous day full of wonderful things.

You are made of win and I absolutely adore your entries and you're one of the first people I check up on when I come back from trips. I love that you're here in LJland and I am still regretting that I didn't meet up with you while I was in Australia. :(

Thank you so much for your sweet wishes!! *hugs*
