…it tasted pretty good.
There was a great big WHOOOSHing sound as my younger brother’s birthday flew by. Part of the problem is that I get it confused with Consitution day (and I have pretty much as long as he’s had a birthday). Another part of the problem is that I pretty much suck with calendars.
“Weekdays” are pretty much one big day to me. Somepeople have meetings on their calendar, “I have a 2 o’clock today, so I can’t stay late at lunch…”. Me? I have a Wednesday.
This isn’t the only time/place that I have troubles fitting into society; I’ve been known to forget the names of people I’m dating, I used to sleep on the floor, blah blah blah. The Colonel (if he’s still around) could rattle my idiosyncrasies off the top of his head, much like a vintner whining about the grape flavor in cough medicine.
So will my brother forgive me? Maybe.
Should he? Probably not; there are tools out there for people like me…

From the building manager:
The Seattle Fire Department requires an annual inspection, of the Fire Sprinkler System. This inspection is schedule for Wednesday August 16, 2006 between 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 a.m.
Representatives from [the management company] will test the fire alarm system. The sirens, and exterior bell, witch will go off at about the above schedule time. Please be aware that it will just be a test.
I got this letter today, and I can only hope that they meant 12:00 PM or I am going to be so confused when the dang thing goes off… but that will probably be the least of my problems,
Long time no babble. I’ve been crazy busy recently, and the idea of “composing content” for this “blog” has been rather elusive. My idea is to expand stuff a bit, so that I can provide regular stuff. Yeah. And Stuff.
A recent conversation with my boss, after I had spent a few hours debugging some CSS:
- Me: Umm… Can you tell me where reality is?
- He: Sure. Over there (points down the hall)
- Me: Well, I’ll just stagger on down and introduce myself.
Ok. Maybe you just had to be there.
