dewline: "Truth is still real" (anti-fascism)
Thus are those two closing questions from last night are answered.

Ukrainians and Russians alike - some of whom are still going to be able to read this, depending on when and where they access the Internet from - have no such guarantees right now.

I'll probably try to discuss other stuff that also still matters to me later tonight. But I'm not going to be very enthusiastic about it.

With the help of Delicious Library v. 2.8.5, I've been slowly cataloguing my personal library's contents. Very slowly.

Reached a minor milestone this morning: book # 500 was catalogued: The Microphone Wars - A History of Triumph and Betrayal at the CBC by Knowlton Nash.

The collection doesn't and won't stop at that point, of course. But it seemed worth some small attention.

Here's a bit of my childhood preserved for now:

SO many shopping trips with the parentals...so many...

One of my preferred hangouts when I'm in the ByWard Market...and perhaps strangely (or not), I've yet to consume a drop of beer or wine or anything else with alcohol in it in that venue. If I've overloaded on anything liquid in Patty's, it's probably cranberry juice!

Owing [livejournal.com profile] wtl a debt of thanks for introducing me to Patty's as a place to visit for a couple of hours every few weeks via forming ByMUG...

It's an ambitious project.

[livejournal.com profile] comicsworthread alerted me to something that [livejournal.com profile] raferroberts has announced over at Tumblr that he's getting ready to start in the new year: re-reading every comic he owns.

It's ambitious of him. I'm pretty sure that I won't be able to match him, even should he fail. My collection, irrationally gathered as it's been over the decades, is far more than I can hope to handle. I should really consider a culling for any number of reasons, but it's going to be a while before I can begin to figure out how to manage it. And because I bought it all in order to read it, and some of it well before I even considered the issues of re-saleability...well, I'm not likely to get a lot for most of it should I ever sell it off.

At any rate, it's a reminder to get my other library sectors properly catalogued as best I can.

One more thing to work on in 2013.

Seems like some of the computer issues are solved as of tonight with [livejournal.com profile] leroux's help. Not done with the backing-up yet, though, so I'm putting Time Machine through its paces for the first time tonight, for real. Just in case. If things improve further, I may consider a reinstall of the OS.

I do not like the flickering of the display that's cropped up.

Yes, still using the old iBook to post entries such as this tonight. And it's expected that this will continue for at least another day or two. Or three.

Could also do without the continued sinus issues, of course. *Whine*

Yep, lots of First- or Second-World problems for this lad, tonight...

I need more of it, because it seems like I keep forgetting at least two or three things per day that I want/need to do as a result of not sleeping as much as I ought.

More on other stuff as the day goes on. Off to get the groceries, another e-mail/web check and then it's off to drop off another batch of video tapes at the recyclers...and after that, I don't know what I'm doing today.

Something needs saying. So:

Some of you I've done wrong by and you know it.
Some of you I've done wrong by and you don't know it.
Some of you I've done wrong by and neither of us realizes it.

I apologize. Here and now. Whatever the circumstances were.

To those of you I haven't wronged: I hope I never do. I'll do what I can to avert it. No promise that I'll succeed, but I'll put the work in. I don't know if I'll always remember to ask for help if I need it, just so you know.
