sprinkler

Sunday, July 31st, 2005

Seeing as how it’s been so very hot lately, and no rain in sight for about a week, it was definately time to bring out the sprinklers today. One of our sprinklers oscillates back and forth (not the side-side oscillation, but the kind where the head is a bar parallel to the ground, which spins […]

They Think They’re Newsworthy…. 7/31/05

weird day….

Saturday, July 30th, 2005

I don’t know what it is. I just felt off today. A big part of me wanted to relax and take it easy. But another part of me has, lately, been concerned that I’m not living up to my potential lately. There are so many personal projects I’d like to do, and business-enhancing projects.
First, I’d […]

Happy Birthday Erin!

Saturday, July 30th, 2005

Other than having to go to class last night, I think she had a pretty good time. We made her new “Siezure Girl” shirts (on the back it says, “Have you hugged an epileptic today?”), complete with her own logo. Jen made a terrific brownie cake, and we watched the first episode of […]

firefox vs ie7?

Friday, July 29th, 2005

I’ve read the first review on the next incarnation of Internet Explorer, and I’m not impressed. While the writer says that, with a few changes, this browser will be ‘competitive,’ what they’re failing to take into account is that this is the beta release for a piece of software that isn’t coming out for another […]

Friday links: Smoke and Mirrors

Friday, July 29th, 2005

Blog Accessory Perfect for websites like blogs, this is an Online Status Indicator that will show your online status in AIM, ICQ, IRC, Jabber, MSN, and Yahoo messengers.
Thirsty? A woman gets a big surprise when she opens up a $74,000 water bill.
Smoke and Mirrors Ok, scratch the mirrors. You don’t need mirrors when the smoke […]

discussion board?

Thursday, July 28th, 2005

I thinking about starting a discussion board site for professional ’solopreneur’ web developers. (or at least small business owners who do the work, not just manage) I know there’s a ton of web development boards out there, focusing on everything under the sun. But I’m interested in one that includes the business side of […]

looks like netflicks…

Wednesday, July 27th, 2005

I just tried to call and renew our Hollywood videos (through our MVP account) and heard that the district manager has just revoked that priveledge! We can’t call in anymore! Oh well, we’ll just switch to a netflicks account. Too bad, Hollywood.
The cool weather we’ve been having the last couple of days has been lovely! […]

Stupid dealership

Tuesday, July 26th, 2005

So. The van wasn’t ready yesterday. It was ready this afternoon. We drove out to get it (45 minutes each way, if the traffic is good — which it wasn’t) and Jen dropped me off to pick it up. They drive it out (which was a good sign) and hand me the keys, and the […]

close call

Monday, July 25th, 2005

I almost missed a meeting today! I had a 2 o’clock meeting, and remembered it at about 12:45. (I needed to leave by 1:30 to get there on time). This was before I was able to get lunch. Whew. Everything worked out though.
Actually my clients at the meeting expressed amazement over how my business […]
