More Frustration

Spent most of the day playing with/chasing my little bro, which was good. I love the little guy so much, but I'm too OLD to chase around an ultra-energetic two year old all day. As a result it was pretty late in the day before I started to try and get some work done. This delay was compounded when the old computer I was using crashed and wouldn't let me log back in. (I was using that one because it has most of the programs I use and preferences therefor configured. A firmiliar environment makes a huge productivity difference). After two hours, I was able to recover the file I was working on, transfer it to this computer and download a bunch of software I can't live without (Gaim, Crimison Editor, OpenAfs, and AbiWord since MSWord isn't installed (and I didn't feel like wasting another hour)).
Icky things that keep repeating themselves department: My grandfather was admited to the hospital for like the dozenth time in the last two years for complications due to various heart surgeries etc. He should be fine, but it seems like everytime he starts to make real progress, he ends up back in the hospital and that makes him miserable. Not to mention the additonal stress it places on my grandmother and father/stepmother. Hopefully, he won't be in that long this time and everything will be fine.
I should have the house to myself tomorrow for a while. Maybe that will motivate me to do some work. Something tells me I may end up using my solitude to watch tv all day, which would be "bad."
