Aka “Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!”
Finally was able to login to the Up-To-Date order tracking system tonight. And to my horror, this is what I saw:

Anyways, I won’t hold my breath. I know I have a license for the software, so I should be able to acquire a copy from work by the weekend. Thanks Apple for not using product activation.
A bit of backstory: I’m part of the Up-to-date program because I picked up a “new” previous generation 24″ iMac at the beginning of the month. The thing is freaking huge, biggest screen in our apartment.
I’m on the search for an online bookmark service that will fit my needs. Del.icio.us seems too clunky and hard to use on a daily basis. Ma.gnolia looks nice, so I’m cleaning up my bookmarks in Firefox so I can import them.
If you use an online bookmark service or social bookmarking site, tell me what you think.

Also, I picked up a Magic Bullet blender yesterday. So far we’ve made fresh homemade guacamole, arctic chocolate milk shakes, omelettes, and chicken quesadillas. In addition to the recipe book that came with it, I downloaded about a dozen other recipes online last night. It doesn’t live up to the infomercial, but it is a cool gadget!
edit: Add hummos and mac & cheese to the list today.
Rave: I got the job! I’m in a transition period between the 2 jobs right now, as my old boss asked for 2 weeks notice, and my new boss wants me to get ramped up-to speed before the current webmaster leaves.
I’m the new webmaster for the UO School of Journalism and Communication (SOJC).
w00tage!
Rant: So the Sony PSP plays little discs called Universal Media Discs. What the hell is universal about it? SRSLY. Hey Sony, universal means it should work across a multitude of platforms across brands and such.
