Someday in the distant future I will invent some way to boot up my windows xp desktop that doesn't want to let me use it until I verify my xp installation with Microsoft, who no longer supports xp...

I really want to be able to access those files. For one thing, a story for the museum succession game is on there, and I owe LSP the completed saga of Battlefailed in poetic epic form.

Use a bootdisk to turn it on and load the files onto a flash drive.

This. Ubuntu is easy enough if you have a big enough flash drive, but there are smaller distros that you can do basically the same process with. Some you can even make an actual CD to boot from, if that's your only option (you can do a DVD with Ubuntu though).

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

You... probably don't even need a bootdisk, or any OS whatsoever, if you have a lil' cash to spend. Just pick up one of those USB hard drive docking bay things, and stick the HD in it. Then you can probably pull out whatever without having to bother with OS nonsense at all.

And trying not to freak out while I wait for guests to arrive (I am happy they're visiting though, and I'm happy with how much cleaner my place is right now)

In fact, frankly, I'm happy that I'm not a whole lot more anxious.  Helps that I can take slow deep breaths without inhaling a bunch of dust anymore.

It went so well!  Just, oh wow, everything went so well.
Mom and brother complimented my apartment...  and while they were mostly being nice, and I can never read my brother's sincerity...  I can read my mom easily, and she was genuinely happy/relieved!  And she has this *crazy* sensitive sense of smell, which sucks when I have practically none.  I know the place has some smells (brother could tell that I'd been frying fish) but she didn't start cleaning or sigh or get tense.
(... this time.  So, massive improvement)

Brother and I chilled with some racing games and Madden (he intentionally brought stuff I'm not into, to broaden my horizons.  Which was fresh and fun with him!) and I showed him some Metal Gear Solid 5 and shared various crazy bits from the story.  The only iffy part was that we talked politics a while, but mostly we discussed our lives, and cool gaming stuff from our different areas of interests.

We went to a family event (in my town), where we kept each other from getting bored and helped move tables and chairs and such.  Then had some delicious burritos (think Chipotle but local) and some beers, chatting at the local brewery.

Then we headed back to my place to play Smash Bros co-op, and share our (also very different) favorite songs on youtube.  We also re-watched The Reward, which really sums up our relationship I think.

I almost feel like crying, a little.  Yeah.  I'm just so happy and relieved.  I was so anxious...

A long time ago I decided to just keep living out of spite and inertia.  But sometimes I get, by surprise, scraps of hope.  This is one of those times.

More of a pleasant Cinnamon aroma, but more-or-less.
