Miette got a little "Nip Tuck" action of her own, yesterday. I dropped her off at the Vet on my way to work so that she could get a few shots and have all of her girly organs cut out. Jess picked her up around 4:30pm.
I've never had a female cat before, so I didn't [...]

My place of employment is offering a Voluntary Separation Incentive Package to all of its management employees. That means me. In my specific situation, based on my 6 years of service and various bonuses, they are offering my 60% of my annual salary, plus cash for any unused vacation days and my banked vacation days [...]

Last night, Jess and I went to see Underworld with Joel, Emily and Josh. Jess didn't like it at all and got very bored. But I thought it was great. Then again, any movie that involves attractive women, pale faces, and sharp pointy teeth will intrigue me. I have a thing for vampires.
Today, we're leaving [...]

For $400, the unreleased Minolta Z1 looks like a decent camera. Much more aggressively priced than that $1200 asking price for the dImage 7 when it first came out. It boasts roughly the same features as the dImage 7, with a longer lens (10x vs. 7x) and a smaller sensor (3.2MP vs 5.2MP). However, at [...]

Not only does nobody else use her computer in more than a passing way, the computer, an Apple Macintosh, is not even capable of running the KaZaA file-swapping program.

I used to think that time stood still. Of course, I knew it moved. The sky would get darker every night, and lighten again each morning. But I stayed the same. My bones didn't get tired. I didn't gain any weight. Nothing decayed. Nothing broke down into smaller, simpler versions of itself. From my viewpoint, [...]

I have trouble asking for things. Even simple things. Even things that I know would be given happily if I'd just ask for them. For instance, right now, in my pocket I have 55 cents. That's 10 cents shy of a Pepsi from the vending machine. I'm sure there are 14 people around me who [...]

I'm getting the itch to code Inklog again. bBlog's been doing pretty well for me. But I've got some more functionality that I'd really like.
I dislike that my URLs (as clean as they are) only have ID numbers in them. Not very useful for trying to figure out what something is without looking at [...]
