>It sure is winter outside right now. It’s been icing all day, just got in from clearing off my car so it might be set come 9:30. The only thing I could wish for now would be some snow to top it off. This would make a great sledding base. I love winter, but I was looking at the trees and the grass earlier today before everything was covered up… I was thinking how nice spring is, the trees just budding… the smell in the air, the grass just turning green again. It’ll be nice once winter’s over, I just…
>Ok, so Rez is as cool as I thought it would be. It’s one of those things… ominously named “the game” in various stories. A futuristic game that everyone gets into, forgets the rest of their lives… well, maybe not quite, but it’s certainly addictive. I’ve almost beat it, but beating each time unlocks different modes of play in the 4 areas. It starts off mostly point-line 3D… but fills in as you progress (from what I’ve gathered). I can’t wait to get to the later levels. It can get so intense, the controller vibrates to the beat, keeping you…
>I realized a lot of my job consists of gauging people’s honesty. I have to figure out if we are at fault vs the customer… sometimes they’re flat out lying, sometimes they have no clue… and sometimes we’re at fault. I don’t like having to gauge liers, that is a lot of the reason as to why I choose the friends that I do — I’m straight up in all aspects, this is me… and I want others to be the same. There’s nothing worse then thinking someone might be doing something behind your back. I cast that possibility out…
>The cumulative ammount of snow has gone by the wayside. With 50 degrees plus today, the snow went on a fast track outah here. It’s almost my weekend, too — there go my hopes of sledding. I now have some pictures of my surroundings. I feel like I’ve got double the free time, having the laptop with me. I can work when the inspiration strikes, I don’t have to wait until I get home, and then worry about having the time to do it… at the very least write some notes on how I want to do something later on.…
>Wow! More snow today! I’ve been itching to go sledding so badly, know of at least 3 friends who were out having a good time yesterday and today while I was wasting the good daylight time working. My whole department at work moved to a new area of the building… it’s where everyone used to be before everything got huge – back when it was all still Javanet. I’ve got a nice desk, window to look out of longingly, plant… it’s all good, and with the new schedule it’s about the same ammount of work — albiet a lot less…
>There was a nice snow last night, though still not up to par for winter. I miss the snow, and its nice that we have some hanging around finally… but I want feet! I want snow to just go *BWAM!” …2 feet. =] I’m actually running out of things to do with the page =] I’ve got some work done on the pictures page, but that won’t be up till I have something other then my “yams project” to put up there. (I was invigorated and inspired last time I went shopping — had a hankerin for yams… and followed…
>I saw Lord Of The Rings again last night. I’m still amazed by the sound in the theater, though a bit larger this time, so it didn’t sound quite as good as the last place I saw it, but wonderful just the same. I’ve steadily been working on the page, finally got the music page to look more how I’d like it… I’ll be adding more/new music soon. If you need DivX, check out the software section. Once I get myself a bit more situated/organized I’ll have the albums up, upwards of about 20 80min albums at this point, and…
>…grrr – should have known, as soon as I put it up — doesn’t work. For some reason it’s not pulling the .class file out of the .jar archive. I am beside myself… I wish it just wouldn’t have worked on my computer — then I wouldn’t have worked for so long to get it to look good… only to have it not work later. .:sigh:. well its not like its not backed up… but just annoying. I don’t see anything funny with my webhost, but I’m unable to set the permissions to anything but read only for everyone else…
>Hey wait a sec… weekend? …exactly. I’ve updated — or will as soon as I get back to an ethernet connection. There’s a new way to navigate. There’s still the bubbles to activate the people page, webcam, and journal… but now there’s a handy dandy navigation HUD. Check it out at the big green bubble. I’ve tried to keep a decent balance of keeping everything on one page, and not having a million windows open, so lemme know what you think.
>Spent thursday going out to offices near Boston. I saw people who I talk to here and there througout the day, saw their end of the operations, which helps me better understand my own and how to better work with them, all-in-all it was rather rewarding. The drive was probably the hardest part, but I kept myself and others occupied. …anything to avoid the licence plate game .:shudder:. Attendance sucks. Oooooh 8 minutes late… when I stay 15 at the end of my shift, I understand from a management standpoint… but it’s not really that serious. 20 minutes, thats serious……
>…just like heaven. =] I’m trying to get used to this… moderation as with all things. Someone asked me last night if I was hooked up. I realized I didn’t know what that meant, in the true sense. That I have a girlfriend for sure? I said no, only because it really hasn’t been that long, and that talk is required before it’s made official, right? A bit after I wrote the proceeding paragraph, (and it wasn’t published, I keep missing my window of opportunity for publishing), we got into a discussion about this very thing here at work. Someone…
>What a bad time to be updating right and left, blogger’s a bit on the sluggish side, publishing is disabled again… story of my life, as soon as I want to update, have things to update about, and find that one color I want… I can’t see it right away. I can still put it in, I just have to wait till later to find out if it actually worked or not. I’m feeling good after yesterday, surprisingly. Worked out a bit (!!) — I like being aware and taking care of myself — this is a good thing. It’s…
>I got my New Years wish! (oh yeah, and its snowing too) =] hehe Yeah I’m still giddy, I’m still smiling, and even though its a tad sogg-ay outside… I love it. It snowed last night, a good whoomping but with it being kind of warm… it was soggy by this morning. It’s snowing again now, hopefully it’ll freeze up and stick around for a while. I want to get some sledding in this year. =] I watched Moulin Rouge again… much better when you have someone to watch it with. I suppose that’s the case with most of those…
>Hmmm, I think that was a satisfying couple hours of work. I just finished updating some things. Take a look at the rollover bubbles at the bottom left of the main screen. Get the daily dose, news, and webcam (once it’s running again) right on the main screen. The others link to new pages. I hope it’s not throwing too many windows up — but lets things be viewed as intended. I’d like to hear if things don’t show up right. It’s all at least 800 width, so best to have your screen @ least 1024 X 786 — 32…
>Today’s a damn good day, considering. Usually about this time (2-3 days?) I’m tearing my hair out, shuffling into work, and barely making it through the day. Granted: hardly made it out of bed this morning, but thats only cause its so comphy =] I had a very nice evening with a very lovely lady, and that just seems to make all the difference. I just can’t stop smiling. Its probably kinda soon to go making prognostications, but I’m just really happy. Everything just fell into place at the right time, and I’m beyond thankful for everything thus far. Just…
