In which I shall be 30.

Tomorrow -- the 15th -- is my 30th birthday.

I am not at all sure what to think of being 30 yet, so I shall save that for later, perhaps after I have experience in the matter. suzimoses will point out to me that I am old, though she does that every birthday, and then I remind her that four months and two days later she will be this old too, and then she points out that even then I'll still be older than she is.

In any case, I went into Fry's -- the local computer supply superstore and general geek Mecca -- looking for little bitty metric screws to properly affix my laptop keyboard to the laptop. Unfortunately, they didn't have any little bitty metric screws, only little bitty Imperial screws....

( I ended up getting an impulse-buy birthday present for myself instead. )
