small monitor, biiiiig screen! o.o

[derien]

It's so much smaller back to front that I can push it way far away from me on my desk, but the area of the screen is so large that I don't have to page down to get to the LJ links on my favorites! And it's clear and bright! And it was so light I easily carried it with one hand from the DHL office to my car! Damn, this is cool. :) Eor says I should turn it on before I turn the computer on, though, to forstall the computer getting confused as to whether to expect analog or digital. I wonder what would happen if it did get confused? Probably I'd just have to turn it on again?

Had a rather relaxed day away from passengers, discussing ghosts, the afterlife, the size of the universe, the impact of TV on Americans, and, oh yeah, screening some people who work at the airport. That detail can be really deadly dull if you're with the wrong people - some people will literally just sit and not talk all freakin day - but the last two times I've had it I've had fun and interesting conversations. I'm on it again tomorrow, because the other female screener who's trained and badged for it is on vacation. I've learned how to deal with the people who don't like to talk, though - I keep a journal which Teena gave me in my back pocket, and I can pull it out and write any time I get bored. The journal which fits in the back pocket is the best thing ever. I have one daegaer gave me which is a little thick but might also work when I use up the Teena ones.
