So as an addendum to my last post, when I brought my PC back home and plugged it in, the problem started happening again. Neither hard drive was accessible. I opened up the box and plugged in only the primary (boot) drive, and although I still get an error when I boot up, I can read from the drive and run Windows. I wish I could get at the files on the other drive, though! The DVD burner burns CDs like a charm, so I spent some time this morning backing up my latest photos. These include photos from three Flickr Meetup events and Sasquatch, so it took a few disks.
Last night, I went to another Flickr Meetup event at Victrola's new roastery cafe. I didn't stay super long because Elizabeth arrived after her movie for a ride home, but it was fun. I took a bunch of photos, too.
Tonight starts the six-movie weekend with La Vie En Rose. I get the feeling this weekend's going to busy, especially if I try to fit in a trip to Fry's to buy a new power supply or IDE cables.
On Saturday, I did another Flickr photostroll with the Seattle Flickr Meetup.com group, and it was a pretty good time. This time, I stayed a little (OK, a lot) later, and I got a few OK night shots as a result. See the photoset here.

Other than that, it was a pretty forgettable weekend. Coming up is SIFF (we need to buy some tickets before I can post our line-up) and the Sasquatch Music Festival on Saturday (Björk, The Arcade Fire, Neko Case, a bunch of other folks).
Stuff's been happening, I guess. On Saturday, I went on an impromptu "photostroll" with some Seattle Flickrites. We went to a graveyard in Discovery Park.
Yesterday, we looked at an apartment on Queen Anne and brought my mom flowers.
Today? I've been working.
I had a pretty good weekend. Friday night, we saw Blades of Glory, which was tons of fun. Afterward, we had drinks at the new, cocktail-lounge version of the old Ballard dive bar Coppergate. I had a pretty good drink that included some rhubarb juice, but
negihama's cherry cocktail was a little too Champagne-y for our tastes.
On Saturday, I went to the UW to meet up with some Flickr folks (the Seattle Flickrite Meetup Group) to do a "photostroll." We wandered around campus, the camera geeks with their huge lenses mixing with a couple of us with point-and-shoots. Everyone was very nice, and I got a few nice shots (click here for the set):
Afterward, we first went out for coffee and then beer. It was a lot of fun, and I'm definitely going to try to come out to their events in the future.
Today, we had breakfast at Hi-Life and I worked in the yard. I think the lawn looks a lot better than it did last year, and I hope I can keep up with the weeds until we have to move.
