liralen: Finch Painting (superglue_flake)
Today I got the pmG software key in my email!! Very, very bare bones installation instructions, but entirely doable and the 64-bit version chugs along on my machine Just Beautifully. Now to actually figure out the interface! *laughs* Amazing stuff.

I had a wonderful visit with [livejournal.com profile] grey_lady on Saturday. She was in the US for business, and had a rental car and was actually happy and willing to come up here from Englewood and see the house, the Jet, the JF, the garden, and the Array. She brought tea and Hob Nobs to exchange for a painting! We were both very happy with the trade, and it makes for good stories for her back at home.

The funniest thing was realizing that since she knew me back in alt.callahans days, with Usenet, Archie, Veronica, and even Gopher protocols. It was fun reminiscing about ! addresses, and how we had to route our own email through machines that we knew the schedules of, and how email used to take up to a day if we routed it wrongly and only two hours if we did it right. *giggles* Now I sit on gchat and gmail going, "I sent it a whole minute ago, why hasn't it shown up?"

We've known each other for more than twenty years, and didn't meet until this weekend.

That was kind of cool to realize. *laughs* It was a lovely visit.

Oh! Another cool thing was that the director of the art exhibit gave me an application to be a part of the Longmont Artist's Registry! She said it wasn't optional for me to fill it in. *laughs* And they sponsor TEN rotating exhibits throughout the city and pick folks from the registry! So it's highly likely my paintings will get shown again. It's amazing what resources come out of the wall when I try something.
