I should be doing background reading for my research project but I have the mother of all headaches so I’ve been snoozing in a darkened room and reading blogs. It was over at Gabrielle’s that I came across this meme… how was I to resist?? Apparently it was started here.. so link back if you’re getting on this bandwagon too…
Here’s how it works…
A. Upon receiving this tag, immediately perform a screen capture of your desktop. It is best that no icons be deleted before the screen capture so as to add to the element of fun. You can do a screen capture by going to your desktop and pressing the Print Scrn key (located on the right side of the F12 key). For Macs, press shift-option-3 then look for the .png file on your desktop. Open a graphics program (like Picture Manager, Paint, or Photoshop) and do a Paste (CTRL + V).
If you wish, you can “edit” the image, before saving it.
B. Post the picture in your blog. You can also give a short explanation on the look of your desktop just below it if you want. You can explain why you preferred such look or why is it full of icons. Things like that.
C. Tag five of your friends and ask them to give you a Free View of their desktop as well.
D. Add your name to the list of Free Viewers below with a link pointing directly to your Desktop Free View post to promote it to succeeding participants.
The list of Free Viewers so far is:
iRonnie – I Set No Corner
Thess – Thesserie
Rebecca – Skippy Heart
Knoizki – A Dialogue With K
Beng – Kauderwelch
Tina- My Good Finds
Rachel – Heart of Rachel
Alice – Hello, My Name Is Alice
Julia – Julia’s Books Corner!
Darla – Nichtszusagen
Marg – Reading Adventures
Holly – What Were you Expecting?
ames – Thrifty Reader
Dev – Good Reads
Rosie – Nobody asked me…
Gabrielle – Diary of an Adult Runaway
Deeleea – Singular Scene
Here’s mine… hope you’ve got pop-ups enabled… coz it don’t look like nuffin till you blow it up… go on – click… you know you want to!!

I am soooooo jealous of your mac!!!! Just one question, why are you still using Windows? Isn’t defacing your Mac with Windows considered to be like super Apple blasphemy or something? ;-)
Then, just saw your comment over at Helen’s and COULD NOT BELIEVE THAT YOU HAD NEVER HEARD LULLABY BEFORE NOW!!! Especially considering the major South African connection: Dave Matthews wrote it and Ladysmith Black Mambazo sings it with Josh. You are forgiven though…

Awww, sweet girl… I am so, soo sorry that you are having a hard time. Is there ANYTHING I can do from this distance to help? Just say the word…
P.S. If I’m not mistaken, the lyrics in Lullaby says: Hush now baby DON’T you cry… But I understand. Every once in a while it’s okay to have a good cry. NOT that I WANT you to cry of course, but… aargh… I think (hope?) that you know what I mean.
