Hey all. Skipped a day. Sorry bout that.
Was having some hard times, but got some nice cheer-up emails and, of course (and as usual), things turned out to be not as bad as I'd feared.
I do still feel like I was in a better place, in some respects, a few months ago when I was just starting to figure out where I wanted to take myself.
Anyway, that's all quite vague.
Microsoft released the beta 2.0 of Internet Explorer 7 a few days ago. I installed it yesterday and have been playing around with it. It's super-fast, which I've never been able to say about Firefox. it incorporates tabbed browsing, as everyone guessed it would, and a nice RSS-subscription setup. It falls between Opera's (which is by-far the best) and Firefoxes (which is trash). So, it looks like things are staying interesting for now.
It's still a beta though, so there are little weird things here and there. One of the menu's is in a really weird place, and some input-boxes (like Xanga comment boxes) don't fill out properly on the screen (although, when you hit "Submit" they come out fine). So, hopefully they'll clean it up soon.
It's been a busy few days, as usual. Work all day yesterday, ECM, late-night Perkins stop. Got home and crashed hard. Every night has been a hard-crash night. Going to Chicago this saturday for a cuisine-adventure that will rival no other. That's right - cuisine adventure. With my buddy tristan shandy. or, well, tristan's biographer. Something like that.
Oooo curleycue just brought me brownies! and cookies! i'm a fatty! holy crap my face is so freaking fat...
I have a GK12 meeting in about 10 minutes...I'll bring the cookies and brownies there. Meeting up w/ Dj for some grub tonight - worried about all this vday business and whether that'll make it hard to get into any restaurants.
Mc-y-D's, here we come!
Oh, yeah, so, uh happy Vday to all you lovers out there. And to all you haters, happy HUMBUG. I have long since stopped caring about Vday (and the 3 breakups that have occurred within 1 week of Vday in my life). haha. But i'm not bitter.
Party on party peoples.
Ciao

lol i know it's tristram. my friend (the biographer) appears to be irritated by my calling him 'tristan,' and i find it endearing. haha.
