The Scotto Grotto (org)

Nice walk this morning, but kept it brief… had a song on my lips, but I don’t know what it was. Something whistle-y, like the end credits to buckaroo banzai, or the charlie brown theme. baby sharks are not cute. they are just smaller versions of the big ones. I think that defeats the awww-cuties factor of the show. I do like the term “pupping” though for giving birth. I have about 4 people that are due for a pupping on my reading list… I wonder when the first one will pop out?

I’ve just finished writing about 2000 words into a story that I’ve neglected for far too long…I’ve discovered that I’d rather be poked in the eye than transcribe, so I’ll be doing most of my writing electronically again, either on the palm or laptop. Contemplating getting a stowaway keyboard for the palm, but I want to see if it’s really a faster and more comfortable way to write…. it might be simpler to just use the palm, and let any typos get remedied in post-production after synching it to the computer. Maybe this tiny version is an option.

Some successful programming this morning, I think the laser room is ready to go live with the new interface…I know that they may never see the easter eggs in there, but it’s still fun to have ’em.

Ouch! today’s the first day of 10 digit phone dialing… that’s going to screw up all our local phone room calling. I’m going to have to go in and twiddle all the numbers. d’oh. it was hard enough to call a cab!
