cimorene: cartoony drawing of a woman's head in profile giving dubious side-eye (workout)
[livejournal.com profile] wax_jism is so unimaginative that when given the option to request anything!, she asks for the same plain chocolate-on-chocolate cake I've been making for her for the past three years. ;__; This is the universe's revenge for how my mom always had to make chocolate chip date cake twice a year for me and Daddy, isn't it? Anyway, have the recipe for chocolate chip date cake (my personal favourite) instead.

Well, the problem with my computer was actually a problem with my beloved flatscreen LCD monitor. It won't turn on, so we hauled up the backup, a 13" from 1992 with a strong green tint, from the basement.

Guys, this monitor! It's thirteen inches (and about twenty-five inches deep - it wouldn't fit on my computer shelf)! The screen is tiny, the body is HUMONGOUS. Everything is blurry and small on it.

And green.

Boy, they sure don't make 'em like they did in 1992 anymore. And it works! Bunches of newer, flashier, not-green-tinting monitors have gone to that Electronics Graveyard in the basement/sky/city dump, but this little monitor chugs on. Greenly.

Don't worry - we'll still use Wax's widescreen (and my sleek graphics card) for watching movies.
