Reassured

Thursday, September 30th, 2004

Presidential Debate Gem #1:
I see how hard it is on TV screens all the time.
— George W. Bush, talking about the hardships of war
Boy, we got a good laugh out of that one! The first presidential debate of 2004 is over. Did you watch? What did you think?
Personally, I was reassured. […]

DEBATE

Thursday, September 30th, 2004

Hey, don’t forget the Presidential Debate that’s on tonight! If you don’t watch it, then… then… then your momma’s a Bush supporter! Nya!

more family!

Wednesday, September 29th, 2004

We get to pick my dad up from the airport tomorrow! It’s been a blast having my mom her the last week and a half — it’ll be even better to have dad here too! Killy’s is looking forward to seeing his Pop Pop!

Wednesday, September 29th, 2004

Jen is a very avid reader of the Mothering magazine’s discussion board, and one of the posts in the past month or so that she read to me upset both of us, but has been bothering me particularly much lately. In the post, a woman complains of her husband’s lack of support of her […]

the load! the load!

Wednesday, September 29th, 2004

Wow, I am bogged down with work right now! I’ve had instances before where all of my clients seem to pick the same instant to hand me work, but at least they tended to be smallish projects. Now I’ve got several huge projects coming down at the same time! Insanity!

Things are starting […]

the bleeding obvious

Tuesday, September 28th, 2004

I have no idea why I haven’t recognized this already myself. This is the kind of thing that really pisses me off, and I can’t believe I missed it and therefore lost out on weeks and weeks of griping!
Have you heard about the ’schedule’ for this election’s presidential ‘debates’. And all the rules? […]

Daily Show vs. The O’Reilly Factor

Tuesday, September 28th, 2004

This is a fun article from CNN. Apparently Bill O’Reilly, the Fox News host of The O’Reilly Factor was Jon Stewart’s guest on The Daily Show one night (we didn’t watch that episode), and called the Daily Show audience ’stoned slackers’.*“You know what’s really frightening?” O’Reilly said. “You actually have an influence on this […]

a good day (despite being so tired)

Monday, September 27th, 2004

Today was great! My new Adobe upgrades came in today, so since this afternoon I’ve been using Photoshop CS!*that’s what they decided to call version 8.0, because of their new strategy of bundling everything into a “Creative Suite” From what I can tell, it’s a really good upgrade. I’m mostly pleased about […]

late, late, late night

Monday, September 27th, 2004

Yawn. I’m finally ready for bed. I’d have those files ready by Monday morning, and so they were. I really shouldn’t have taken a day off on Saturday; I should have worked instead.
I’m waiting for my file to finish uploading so they can run everything and test it all. I […]

and CRASH!

Sunday, September 26th, 2004

Tonight Erin made the yummiest chocolate and peanut butter gooey cake, it was wonderful! But unfortunately it — and the glass pan it was cooked in — was left sitting out on the stove.*Kids, never, never leave things on the stove! It is not part of the counter! It is not storage! […]

Rough, then nice

Saturday, September 25th, 2004

Boy today started out rough! My mom, Killy, and I walked around (Killy in his stroller) the plaza today at the Art Fair. Which, to be fair, was very neat. But it was very hot! Very sunny, lots of blacktop, and lots of people. Just perfect for somebody that gets […]

more ‘training’

Friday, September 24th, 2004

So anyway. I’m tired, cranky, and I’ve still got my cough (we’re thinking it’s an allergy). Killy’s been keeping Jen up all night lately, so except for the cough she’s in the same shape. We’re just trying not to get too cranky at each other!
