lastweekI'm trying to email a video to my parents and Kyle, but it's not working. Connectivity issues? No, I don't think so. The file is probably just too big. Damn. I recorded some of Alden's first real laughs. It's so cute.
I uploaded the video to Flickr, but apparently there's a size limit and only a portion of it is showing up. I've been trying to use Flickr as a back-up for my photos. Right before we moved, my laptop stopped working. Blue screen of death and all of that, even in safe mode. I'm no computer whiz, so maybe it's repairable, but until I know for sure, I'm counting on all my files being unrecoverable. Luckily, the last time I decided to back up all of my photos onto my external hard drive was right after Alden was born. I know I've lost some photos, but most of the ones taken between that time and now ended up on Flickr, so I didn't lose much. For now, we're using a borrowed laptop.
Michael's grandmother stopped by tonight with two trash bags full of hand-me-down toys. Some are alright, plastic shapes and things. But others are noisy honking, singing contraptions which are possessed and will go off all by themselves. She said she washed them all before bringing them over, so maybe some water got in them and is making them act crazy? Or they really are possessed. (Michael says, "At least they're already in trash bags!")
