Quick Mom update. She's doing better, and eating liquids. Tomorrow: solids! Hopefully she'll be home by Thursday. |
Eating Lunch outside. We have jazz music and overcast skies. It's sprinkling, but everyone is outside anyway. Someone from a local radio station is giving away prizes. It's a jazz station. This is one of the nice things about working downtown in Charlotte. I'm on the Open Pages now! In keeping with my plan, after I redesigned my pate, I reigstered with open pages. I just wish yesterday's entry had been less emotional. I can't always decide what I want to write. I have to write what I have to write about... There are a lot of journals out there. I still feel that mine has something to offer, and it's certainly good for me, so I'm gonna keep doing it. I'm a little different than all the journals I've read. Haven't found another a male bi geek yet, let me know if you find one *grin*. Now I'm worried about resonse. I hope people visit my site, but I refuse to put a visible counter on it. The only way I'll know is if you send me email. Later I wrote that at lunch, I didn't have alot to say, I'm still somewhat drained from my long entry yesterday. Today at work, I think I've started realizing the real purpose behind the VB project. They just want me to reaquaint myself with it, in case we really do get this project. Plus, if we do get it, then I'll have a base framework. The other possibility, is to drive me insane. That project is going well, also. I had forgotten how well I liked Powerbuilder, until I came back to it in January. Now I'm thoroughly spoiled. I'm having to write complicated code that was just a simple function in Powerbuilder. Oh well. I got some of the work done on my apartment tonight, reading it for company. I don't know when I'll finish. I wish I had unpacked when i moved in. Instead, i got enough unpacked to live on, and have been slowly unpacking since, and adding all my new stuff on top. Bril' Joe, real smart. I'm going to try using one of the internet-based spell checkers out there. And remember, it's not that I can't spell, it's that I can't type. If only these things worked on telepathy. Played some Heroes of Might and Magic again tonight, and got my butt kicked again tonight. The graphics are wonderful, and the gameplay makes sense. It's just hard. I like a challenge. I'm reading Fall of Angels by L.E.Modesitt, Jr. It's his latest in his chaos/order fantasy novel. Good characterizations, I'm enjoying this one. I won't criticize it, but just review it when I'm done. I read fiction for enjoyment, not enlightenment. I like it when my reading makes me think, but it's not a requirement. Maybe it's shallow, but when I want enlightenment, non-fiction is so much better. Like other people's philosophy, and journals. They make me think, and that's part of why I read them. |
