6917 – it’s 10-4, good buddy.

Keeping a positive mindset, and hoping for more good news to roll my way. Keeping my spirits high and optimism up. I’ve noticed a drop in my appetite lately… I wonder what’s causing that? Usually, I start to get munchier this time of year.Site Meter


The Eldar are a real thorn in my side. Gimme Orks any day. I’m up to mission #7, thus far. (Staying true to my 1 mission a day… it’s tempting to blow the whole day playing it.)


I want some fresh sweet corn with my meal tonight… I wonder if it’s in season?


Meeting with the women in technology board this afternoon. I hope it’s quick and painless… this week’s going to be busy… Cocktail Party on Wednesday, Kiwanis presentation Thursday. I’ll be happy when this week is over, and it’s hardly begun.


Hooray for No Hurricane this past weekend!


Tentacle-boy loves laundry!
Tentacle-boy loves laundry!
He was so delighted, he went pinky-inky!

The things you draw when you’re waiting for the dryer to finish. Very loosely based on a little kid in the ‘mat.


1 year ago – famous funerals, locusts good to eat – pelicans bad, Tickle me Elmo fur coat, mind flayers

2 years ago – Bad dog dreams, 2250 on vanity search (now about 12,000), shoes

3 years ago – magic toenails, submarines, posting politeness, big brain fixmeup, lovely chat about goetta, eyes

4 years ago – Naughty Newt, Tight funds, DT rumor almost gets started again, Newt’s b-day minus 1.

6915 – Linkies, linkies, who’s got the linkies?

I was right, took me about three hours, and I got a nice bonus check and an Italian lunch out afterwards.

The gang will be happy with the new machines… flat screens, better boxes, and cordless keyboard/mice for some. HP is really quite good about granted equipment, if you’re willing to dance around the paperwork.


Treadmill for FPS games… about time!


Sam & Max team started a new studio! It may not be dead, after all! Telltale Games


3-d Model of the haunted mansion


Would someone like to buy me a 10 million-dollar zeppelin for Christmas?

1 year ago – Prop2 gets nuked, poop in the pool, decade old posts by Scotto to Usenet, Hala attacked by the carnivator, I find out that I need surgery, chimp & the woman

2 years ago – net’s a little poopy, Finn drama at work (after the letter campaign)

3 years ago – clerisy, broken door, bad day, Ripple,

4 years ago – rainy day, poi dog, I first learn to do online carts, x degrees of sep

6914 – Saturn-day

Shuffling into work on a Saturday, to set up some computers while there’s minimal foot-traffic. We’re going to to the 3-way shuffle. New box the LD, LD’s box to RR, RR’s box to the scrap heap. Normally, that wouldn’t be so bad, but doing all of the installing and configging will be pesky. I may be helping LD and LH swap desks, and pertinent computers, too. If I multitask, I foresee a 3-4 hour job, if everything runs smoothly.

Big Kahuna may be slipping me a bonus to do so… it’d be nice if that’s the case.


Sketch-a-move. Neat Idea for a toy car… it follows the path you draw on it. nifty concept. one of the more cool things I’ve seen lately.

6911 – Fried, eh?

Hm.. it’s odd, but it seems that the hair on my chest is getting lighter, from a very dark brown to a fairer, more of an orange-y brown. Is my pelt changing with the seasons? I haven’t noticed it before, and I’ve not been in the sun with my shirt off recently. Very strange… no noticble change in texture.

That’s your TMI moment of the morning, dear journal.


Bots are getting sillier.

6910 – Thor’s Day

Training went well.. a good number of concerned parents showed up, and everything rolled smoothly. Big Kahuna was a surprise visitor… must’ve come right over after getting off of the plane. The School staff was wonderfully courteous and very helpful… the media center brought back many memories as a page, cataloger and bookstore employee. I always did like the kid’s books the most.


Tech trouble seems to be simmered down now. Hopefully it’ll stay that way.


I’ve been getting into the habit of picking up a little dinner once a week or so on the way home from work at this little carribean diner over by the bus stop. I’ve become rather well-liked there, because I appreciate good food, and take a moment to talk to the folks during the slow times. Lots of Veggie, even Vegan options to eat, which surprised me, and is what keeps me coming back. Good food, lots of it, inexpensive and a friendly atmosphere. What’s not to like? There are advantages to not looking like a suit… I think folks there are a lot more comfortable talking with a “clean cut” hippie-type guy, at least at first. They make a Veggie-mango stir-fry sort of thing that is awesome, and the plantains are decadent.

Found these veggie recipies to try when Auntie’s isn’t open

6907 – Humpday!

Bro called and apologized for bailing on Monday. Maybe I can take him out to lunch sometime this week.


Mount St. Helens VolcanoCam


Oktoberfest is coming… maybe I won’t totally miss it this year. Chicken Dance!


Downloaded Dawn of War demo… it’s really nice. A typical build your resources, make an army , hold your ground game, like age of empires, but graphically amazing… and amazingly graphic. Definitely M for mature. The voice talent is sweet, too. Multiplayer must be a hoot.


I’m doing a community meeting with the local police tonight… Hopefully that’ll fly well. The map stuff always impresses folks.


The Bugmenot plugin for mozilla is great… never have to worry about registering at any news site again… the way it should be.


LA to New York, time lapse drive. pretty spiffy. (quicktime embedded on page, w/sound)


Marvel’s Looking for voice talent for an Avengers Animated movie.

The sample working scripts are sort of cringeworthy.

Welcome to my wall scrawls.
