practicality

At Mara's house right now - I'm not entirely certain when I'll be home again, because I may be going out to the Berkshires after this, but I should have some internet either way. I also have my new laptop after a lot of headache - UPS came by to deliver it, and the only one awake and in the house was my brother's utterly dumbass friend who didn't bother asking if he could sign for it, just said he couldn't and that the guy should come back tomorrow. Which necessitated driving a town over at eight to go pick it up, ugh. But it is here and lovely.
