Toooys

I broke down and bought myself a new toy last weekend.  I picked up the Opera browser package for the Nintendo DS.  No, I'm not making this post from it, but I have made comments from it.

There was a slight learning curve, figuring out what display modes work best for me, and we had a little trouble getting it to access the home network (Matt eventually just had to unsecure the network, I think), but I have a small favorites list building on there and I plan to take it with me on the trip back east to access e-mail and whatnot while in the airport for layovers.  The laptop takes too long to boot to use it for that purpose.

However, I did have trouble getting it to connect to the wi-fi access point at Fry's (grocery store) yesterday.  It couldn't pull an IP address, and kept saying to "move closer to the access point."  Great, but y'know, those things aren't exactly in plain sight.  :-P  I'll keep trying, though. 

Winnowing out

I'm going to do another doll cull.  But instead of offering them on eBay or at Men With Dolls, I'm going to give them to someone who'll truly appreciate them: one of the little girls in the congregation who's taken a liking to me.  Most of my dolls are Goodwill finds, not collector dolls or action figures, nothing really high-end.  I talked to the little one's mom today at meeting, and she was receptive to it.  

So, before they switch congregations next month, Cozy's going to get a biiig gift.  :)

And in other religion news, the pope's reasserted that the Roman Catholic Church is the only true church.  Mmmhmm.
