Friends

Summer’s almost over, and I’m getting ready for school to start back up. As I was thinking about that today, I grew more and more excited because I realized something: I was getting my friends back!

Would you like to see my friends? Here, I’ll show them to you:

My Friends

Sure, I’ll get to see the guys from the dorm again, but I have been slowly going insane trying to work on all summer long with only one monitor.

I started working with two monitors in about February, I guess, and I will never go back to working with just one, unless circumstances prevent it, as they have this summer. It takes a bit of getting used to, but once you do, it’s impossible to go back.

I’ve found it much easier to effectively use my time for any number of things other than homework. I can have all sorts of things open at once, without worrying about anything being covered up. Additionally, when I’m doing paper critiques or some such activity, the wide-screen is particularly nice, because I can have two documents open–the original, and the one I make comments on. They sit side by side, and I still have room to spare for things like AIM, Windows Media player, etc.

Suffice it to say, I miss my two monitorly friends!
