I am posting this from Wellington Airport, sitting in the sun, watching planes taking off and drinking a beer. It's kinda surreal, but a very good type of surreal. Oh, wireless.

Anyway, I have a point to this post beyond 'OMG free wireless.' I am travelling to the land of dial-up, otherwise known as my parents'house for about ten days, so even though I am taking the Macbook (name pending, as I really am trying to avoid calling it John or Rodney), I will probably be scarce.

So, what I'm taking a damn long time to say is:

HAPPY HOLIDAYS, FLIST!

Hope you all have a wonderful holiday season.

<3

Edit: Hee. Look at that, it posted. Yes, I am new to this wireless thing, shuddup.

Twice in a night, I know!

I've been pondering how to possibly start vidding again, as now I have a computer that can handle it, and I've been getting some ideas recently. I don't know how successful this is going to be as I only have iMovie at the moment and I'm not quite sure what that can do, but I was hampered by having a lot of things in AVI files and iMovie seeming to not like them.

However, due to this blog I have discovered two lovely bits of software that will hopefully help out. <3!

HandBrake for DVD converting and MPEG Streamclip for AVI to MOV converting.

I just tried the latter out and it seems pretty good.

Open source software: A+++

I know I've said this countless times, but I really, really like these moodtheme icons sometimes. Oh, David Tennant. <3

*may have left work early to play with her Macbook*

Yes, that's right Macbook. It's arrived! And it's so pretty! And fast! And weird!

I'm playing around with Safari a bit, just to see what it's like, but to be honest, now I'm off to download Firefox. I have no bookmarks! I will have to install them from my old machine.

This is so weird. I mean, an awesome type of weird, but I haven't had a new computer in nearly five years (not to mention that it's not even Windows based) and dude, I don't think it's hit me that this is mine, and that I'm posting this sitting on my bean bag on the floor of my room.

Eeee. *goes to play some more*

Also, finally I have SGA icons! (No, I can't seem to get through any post not mentioning it. It's a disease).
