What I really, really don’t like is when I load a DVD to watch a movie and they keep showing trailers and commercials for more than ten minutes with no way to go to the main menu. I get that I can do other things, but I just want to watch the damn movie! It was actually 17 minutes according to the screen counter! That is insane.
I was watching “Going the Distance,” once I actually got to the movie. I liked it. The humor at times was a little too juvenile and cringy but I liked the relationship. It felt very realistic and the main characters faced real obstacles, not made up stupid ones. And the resolution was realistic too. So overall, a good movie.
So Local College is having paperwork issues and it can’t give me access to their online system yet. I had to email people who wrote me recommendations to ask them to resend it. That is a bit annoying.
Today is not my day – I just went into iTunes to finally download “Glasvegas” on my gift card and my whole iTunes library and my Purchased playlist is missing. I’m trying to follow their help guide but I’m starting to panic. I have back-ups on CD and for most of the stuff I bought but I really don’t want to start over here. OK, I can’t get it back with their “support” instructions but I do have all the files still in my computer under “iTunes Music.” I need to figure out how to get back my library from that and not just click on the gazillion songs one by one. Plus I liked my song counts and Purchased list.
Exercise: 30 minutes on Wii. (having the resolutions for a month really helps since I made myself stick to this.)
Cross-stitch: just a tiny bit in orange – my plans got disrupted by iTunes meltdown
Edit: Ok, after a lot of internet scouting I figured out why my iTunes drama happened. I have Sony Vaio and apparently once you turn on their music program it messes with iTunes. I never turned that on before this week when I was looking for a way to copy some of my DVD stuff to Powerpoint. I've been following some online suggestions so hopefully it should help. I will probably need to click on all my music again, which sucks since I probably lost my play count and playlists.
