Yay! I'm back! Yep, you

Yay! I'm back!

Yep, you heard right, I am back up and running.
The file extraction went very smoothly thanks to a nice little OS called Knoppix and an external hard drive.
I reformatted this morning and slowly but surely reinstalled XP (patches, et al) MS Office, etc...

So...here I am....
trying to catch up on blog reading. I am days and days behind on all of my favorite blogs.
I do have a little tidbit to share from Kate. She links to a story about a footlicker.

I have a footlicker story:

I was living in these very apartments but with my now ex-boyfriend in a different apartment. I was in the laundry room in the early evening, it was still light out. I was alone in there but these are pretty quiet apartments so I wasn't concerned at all.
I was pulling my clothes out of the dryer when a young man walked in. I noticed that he didn't have any laundry with him and I know he wasn't coming to pick his laundry up because all of the washer and dryers were empty. He strolled in and picked up a magazine from the folding table and flipped through it for a moment, then put it down and turned to walk out. He stopped before reaching the door, turned and said to me, "Umm, excuse me. Would you like to have your feet kissed?"
I felt this strange cold chill run through my body. Suddenly, I was aware that he was standing in front of the only way out of this room and I was all alone. I was quite surprised that I didn't panic. I very calmly and firmly said, "No!" He turned and walked out of the door.
I didn't miss a beat. I shoved every single item of clothing into the laundry bag, DAMN THE WRINKLES! I nearly ran back to my apartment hoping to receive reassurance of safety from my boyfriend. I suppose that was too much to hope for, hence the fact that he's my EXboyfriend!

Anyway...that's the footlicker/kisser story.
I often dreamed about telling him he could kiss my feet and then slamming my foot into his face like his head was a football and I was aiming for the center of the goal post!
