Lost my journal entry to deepest sender? I’ll have to see if I can recover it from draft, after my lunch meeting today.
Very odd.. 2nd dropped entry in the last month. Probably coincidence (last was semagic, this one was deepest sender). I’ll have time to rebuild it if I must during call today.
Go look at jumpingpictures if you’re bored.

MM has some new things going on in life, and now is unable to take cal from Th-Su. That means I have to find a person to take Th & Sa, and backup on the weekend (should something happen to EN) is semi-shot. I’ve got to see if P is interested in Th, and if OD can do Sats… or if anyone can do sats… I know I don’t want to be saddled with ’em again. Missed going out last minght, and may miss it tonight, too, depending on EN. Sunday should be all mine, though.
I’ve never met a “Lisa” on LiveJournal that I didn’t like. I know about 7 now.

Astronaut Steve Robinson turns the camera on himself during his historic repair job “underneath” Discovery on August 3. The Shuttle’s heat shield, where Robinson removed a pair of protruding gap fillers, is reflected in his visor.

Discovery’s underside floats over the Earth in this first-of-its-kind view, taken during astronaut Steve Robinson’s dramatic August 3 spacewalk. Riding the International Space Station’s robot arm, Robinson ventured under the Shuttle to remove a pair of gap fillers sticking out between tiles on the orbiter’s heat shield.
Moment of Lyric:
almost forgot –
Last night, I dreamt that I was waiting for a bus… my semi-wakeful state told me that I was sleepin on a bus-bench because I didn’ twant to miss my ride. Newt woke me up with snugs and bips, and I had a moment of location shock when I opened my eyes and I wasn’t outside, but in my own bed. (and sleeping in the buff under a blanket… in the dream, I was wearing outdoor clothes, with no covers)
Well, his time out wasn’t too long, bro was picked up by the police on a warrant. I hope the morning and afternoon out of jail was worth it to him. Well, he’s now where folks can keep an eye on him. Hopefully the warders will show more responsibility than he has. He’s not listed on the basic arrest record yet.
Visit with Danny was cut cruelly short… I had to return home to help get the network in order and to take call for a bit. We had time for a drink and some dinner, but no pirate-ship battles. Mushroom pizza, Greek salads, he had a Manhattan, I had a rum & coke. Bonus bummer is that it was his last summer day. He’s telling the sci-fi club that Fridays are out, so maybe we can spend time every few Fridays during the school year.
I really would rather not be tethered to the cell phone sometimes. It’s been quite a hassle lately.
But, enough tales of woe. It’s Friday. The Weekend is nearly here. Free buffet at the club. Time to breathe.
There was a lovely Koi river running through the regency where I had dinner last night and a couple of cute little ducks, too.
Beware the Blue Ringed Octopus of Australia
They call ’em fingers, but I’ve never seen ’em fing. Oh, there they go.
Programming Konfabulator Widgets – With the recent acquisition of the Konfabulator application, Yahoo! released its Yahoo Widgets package, which enables cross-platform (Mac OS X and Windows XP) development of dynamic, simple, and visually pleasing mini desktop applications. This tutorial will show you how to build these “widgets” with JavaScript and XML.
High speed cat photos. – I think I’m going to have to pick up a new digicam next paycheck.. I can’t get quality like this with mr palmtop.
I live very close to the only place on earth where both alligators and crocodiles live naturally side by side. (the everglades)
Note to Scotto… Turkey, Syria, and Iraq share the Euphrates-Tigris water basin.

Last Summer Day with Danny today.. we’re probably going to do a little play of pirates, hang out and have some supper. He told me yesterday that he hasn’t been on the internet for about a month or more. That’d be like me not *reading* anything for a month or more… unheard of.
Had a lovely time chitty-chattin’ with weez & sedef last night, and I’m delighted that I might get another chance to see ’em sometime soon! Quite a pair of sweeties they are! (Even if they are threatening to get me a bunch of Strawberry shortcake branded stuff!)
Taken – Yikes, scary monster cartoon!
2nd Batch of allergy shots, and then platelets. I have to see if I can still donate today after the shot.
Dan goes back to school tomorrow or Friday, for kids begin on Monday. I wonder if we’ll get to goof of any more before he’s back in the grind?
The New Semagic LJ client is a lot friendlier to tags.
Moment of Lyric:
I, for one, am looking forward to Autumn.
“Kami-Robo are robot fighters made from paper, measuring about 15 to 20 centimeters tall. They have joints at the shoulders, hips, elbows, knees, wrists and ankles, which enable them to move freely and smoothly. They are designed to fight.”
Sort of like paper stickfas.
Fulda Carat Exelero – Nice looking car.. I think it’d make a marvy retro-type batmobile.
Moment of Lyric (mp3)
Mostly peaceful Sunday, thank goodness. Bro asking me about CDs and DVDs for the new portable player that he “acquired”. He still hasn’t given me my old DVDs back yet, and I told him that. I may have a burned copy of some old cartoons and the like for him, but I don’t know if giving them to him is a kindness, or condoning his behavior. I’ll have to reflect on it some more.
That reminds me, I have to get postage and mail out those other DVDs.
