head filled stuffed with cotton
i’m heading into work today, despite not feeling all that much better. it’s been over a week; isn’t that enough? oh well, i got laundry done. i pulled off a halfway moveable type 3.2 upgrade, the other day. i’m probably going to export the entries, tar off the static content and start over, with a…
under the weather and eggs, take ii
blue’s laying eggs again. three the last 48 hours. my brother asked if i was eating them. ew. i’ve been nasty sick for almost a week and my sleep schedule is all whacked out. i forced myself out of bed at 10:30 this morning, knowing that i need to get back to normal hours. capable of almost…
sirius satellite radio
i bought a sirius satellite radio. local radio is pretty good, but the content on sirius is suprisingly good. purchasing it for home, i wasn’t particularly excited about any of the off-the-shelf offerings for tuners. none of them fit with my pc-centric entertainment. i vaguely remembered something about a company called “timetrax” that was doing pvr/tivo-style…

let’s do it, let’s lay an egg
my bird, an african grey cockatiel named blue (he’s yellow), has been with me for 8 years. nicole and i always assumed he was a boy. i think the differentiating feature is the color of the skin/bone/whatever around their nose holes. today, i have definitive proof that he is female. there’s an egg in his…
people read this
i’ve been told my a number of people that they look for new updates; that they want to know what’s going on in my life. this is a quick rundown on the major events in my life over the past few months and some general info. i’m divorced. my wife of 8 years and 2…
all shall fall
i wrote this for a close friend and she encouraged me to keep posting (how am i so lucky to have friends like this?). so i’ll just share this. it’s another early morning rant. This, my first day among the living will be my finest. I shall dine upon only the most lush of human…
