damn you, me!!!
Today’s BTAF is hilarious. Car fixed? Check. (not until this morning though…) New DSL line ordered? Check. Cancel cable internet for end of month and sign up for full cable, and change my billing address? … no, wait, that’s done now too. Excellent.
You ever have one of those days where productivity starts out high, but then trickles off to the point where all you’re doing is endlessly looking for cool writeups on everything2? …yeah. Oh, in other news., still no news on whether or not the car is fixed. I will be calling at 4:30 sharp.
So apparently now my photo (as captured by the NYT) is gracing the desktop of Grant’s computer and my mom’s cube wall. I thought it would be a little self-centred of me to frame an article about myself, but I think I’m at least going to seal that newspaper in a plastic bag. I wish […]
I’m famous
A Vintage Palmtop Holds Users in Thrall (GIF Image, 1326×906 pixels) – article about the Newton with my photo in it from the March 27, 2003 edition of the New York Times. Thanks to Al Muniz for mailing me a copy of that paper! In addition, Al says that the article was also reprinted in […]
I’m not angry at everyone anymore, don’t worry.
The freaky April ice storm on Thursday evening created an unexpected three-day weekend for Sandy and I – there was no way I could have gotten to work on Friday, and the University was closed for the first time in twenty years. Besides watching a lot of Six Feet Under this weekend (almost caught up […]
sooothing music…..yes, with three o’s……. is good for forgetting about stupid contractors who trash our things and don’t plug in the refrigerator so that ALL OUR FOOD GOES BAD AND I WANT TO BE ABLE TO HIT HIM IN THE FACE WITH A SLEDGEHAMMER AND THEN GIVE IT SO SANDY SO SHE CAN DO IT […]
Back? Back, yes.
Car got broken into on Thursday, stereo stolen. Why would fuckwits want a three year old nothing special Pioneer deck? Because it was easy to drill the lock, and because I didn’t take the faceplate off. Suddenly car insurance does something for you. TheStar.com – Soundtrack for the city: 50 songs for Toronto. Man, there’s […]
damn proxy
Either the work internet proxy is just being persnickety again, or they’ve actually figured out the eeeevil browser I’m running, and my webmail server. Oh no! Repent! Repent!
murder songs
Went and saw ESB on Friday night. They kicked ass, as usual. I took some photos with my S230 without a flash – the results are here. I think I’ve said this before, but I’m really happy with the S230’s low-light performance. It’s certainly a lot better than anything else I’ve ever used. I’ve got […]
