Rebuilding Metaphors

My mind's whirring, even as my head's stuck in sludge (aka phlegm). The Dust Bunnies're poised to take over the World, starting w/an annexation of the Hive, which they plan to make their HeadQuarters. I just don't have the energy (yet) to slay 'em. Instead, I'm sucking down hot tea (exchanging the fluid intake nearly one-to-one w/Kleenex usage) and browsing through good destuckification & dealing w/time blogginess, thx to a turn-on by livingartist by way of a link near the beginning of her blog-post today, which itself contains several valuable mini-epiphanies and life-lessons.

I find myself in need of more brain-gasms & intellectual stimulation & other a'musements. I'm now working on figuring out ways to get 'em more regularly. Thoughts/tips/hints/suggestions from the MonkeyHouse and/or LazyWeb're welcomed.

Ground(ed) Ducks

Okay, I've managed to ground two (2) ducks from the current juggling flight, shifting them from ToDo to DONE: installing MS Office and Skype onto my new MacBook Pro laptop. Now though, I'm confronted w/a more serious set of ToDo'ness involving iTunes. Basically, I'm wondering (and not finding info directly answering my question) how to have my computer "authorized" to play purchased iTunes music from more than one source. Imagine, if you will, that two (2) different people sharing one computer might want to purchase music separately (for budget/$ reasons), yet'd like to play all the music on one single computer. Seems like this'd require the computer/iTunes be authorized twice, once per person. Yet it seems tied to Apple IDs which seem to work only one per computer. *sigh* Hmm, I think I have an idea of how to check something along such lines, but first I must get iTunes set up to look at and download to the external hard drive first (I think).
