M-x replace-string boyfriend fiancé
We returned last night from
Mont-Tremblant which is a few hours north of Montreal. I had a
great time, the snow, while not as deep and fluffy as one would
like, was deep enough to ski all day. I even tried snowboarding.
That turned out to be a too little tricky for me and I quickly
decided to stick with regular skis. We also wend for a dog sled
ride through the woods which was really amazing, the dogs were
adorable, hyper and so friendly.
My boyfriend then presented me with an engagement ring. It wasn't
sprung on me however, we had gotten unofficially engaged over the
holidays but this kind of made it official. We will get married
early next year if all goes according to plans. I am quite happy
;-)
I do not know what this means for my computer studies. I know it
will mean less time in many cases, but I am pretty stubborn
sometimes and actually get upset with myself if a week goes by and
I have learnt nothing. Perhaps I can make my fiancé a geek which
would solve everything :-)
The hotel we stayed in had free wireless but I was unable to
connect to it under linux. I could see the AP's with
iwspy but it reported that it was an 802.11b network
and my card is an 802.11g, I am not sure if that was the problem or
it was my
/etc/network/interfaces file.

wireless-mode Ad-Hoc
I wasn't sure what to put for
wireless-mode and I
suspect Ad-Hoc is incorrect, but not being able to google at the
time it was difficult to figure out. I might install something like
gnomes network manager to handle this in the future.
