computer randomness

difficulties involved in hard drive formating in the yemen:

I have my music, hamdulillah! but i'm going to open this document, a nice excel spreadsheet, yeah? and all of a sudden I realized -- no, no you're not going to open that because your microsoft for mac cd is in the states.

Along with that, my iLife is gone as well (granted the only thing I used from iLife was iPhoto, which is kind of important as I still take pictures. Maybe I'll go down and see if they have iLife 08 at some point.

So, that's probably pretty boring. and now you have a slice of my life. boring, yo. it's like life in the states but instead of being able to understand everything everyone says, I can't. oh. and i'm unemployed. but so is everyone else.

I'm unemployed until Monday when school and consequently tutoring start. Still looking for an architecture gig; I'll find one soon, I hope...insha'Allah times infinity.

On a random note, after watching the inmate thriller dance on you-tube, I mentioned to my roommate that if everything else is funnier in hijab, the thriller dance should be, too. I have plenty of scarves to go around, so we're going to get a group together and put our own hijabi version on you-tube. How sweet! Oh, and when I was watching my car get towed the other day, I figured it would be cool if I was a tow truck driver for a while.
