The webcam is on for today: Just in case you wanted to
take a peek.
I'm hanging out doing my morning reading and transferring some powerpuff girls to tape for a friend of mine, but later I'm going to tidy up the living room and do some filming.
I figure at that point, I'll point the cam at Swiss, the big white dog, who sleeps under my table. Weeha!
Addendum an hour or so later: Just to show that whoever runs this universe has a wicked sense of humor, after I hooked up the webcam and tried to move it around for a better position, I had to unhook the USB cable to untangle it, which meant that it kept uploading copies of the last picture before the unhooking - a big ugly picture of my hairy armpit.
And what's more, the cam wouldn't function again right away after I hooked it up again - oh no! Windows 2k made me reboot my stinking machine! Gah! I thought we were past that kind of idiocy, but NooOOoOoOOooo...
So I rebooted, worried that hundreds if not thousands of people were staring at my ugly hairy armpit and thinking awful things about my character and basic worth as a person.
And after the reboot, Windows just had to do a consistency check on my hard drive, eating up further time until I could fix the darn cam and overwrite the offending pix.
But finally, at last, my mission has been accomplished. Aren't you pleased? :)
