Still limping along ...

... with the loaner computer that I have a hate hate relationship with, which why I'm not posting or commenting much.  It takes forever to do it because the stupid cursor jumps all over the place and/or it locks up.

But I made it through my first-ever presentation yesterday with no problems.  There was a panic moment when I couldn't find a recent back-up of the presentation, but despite the fact that my real computer won't boot up the Help Desk guy was able to work magic and pull the presentation off my hard drive. 

I wasn't even nervous.  I haven't figured out if I've gained self-confidence in recent years or just gotten to old to care what people think about how I do things.
