"The worst thing is holding on to someone who doesn't want to be held on to. Don't fall for someone unless they're willing to catch you. The thing about falling in love is that if you do it right, you'll never hit the ground. Life is too short to be anything but happy. So kiss slowly. Love deeply. Forgive quickly. Take chances & never have regrets. Forget the past but remember what it taught you." Old friend from high school sent me that one earlier in the week.

I like this one Okie. many days I feel like playing kickboxing with the PCs I use, home and at work. Unfortunately, the one at home has a virus that tells me a file, that does not exist on my laptop, contains a virus.

I am contemplating the fix. It is ~5yrs old.
Reformat the hard drive and move up to Windows 7, buy a netbook, or buy a new laptop. Haven't decided yet.

I read the quotes most every day Okie. If I miss a day or 2, I always go back and read the ones I missed.

La Queen, I am thankful I have more of the 1st than the latter!

Lots of activity here today, I like that.

I have a Windows 7 program and I am just waiting until I can get my wife's niece over here to install it, hopefully in the next 4 or 5 days.

Oops, I forgot my cryptoquote for today.
