I took a look at a few of my past entries earlier today after a Google search for something that turned up my website (OK, so I was Goigling myself again, yes, I’m that narcisisstic) and I noticed a dramatic change in my writing style since even January. Yes, our writing styles change over [...]

My 80-hour TiVo came yesterday, and I got it mostly hooked up, at least to the point where it could connect and download program information as well as display images on my TV. I still have a bit of work to do to get everything hooked up the way it should be, though, which [...]

I had some witty story to tell that I thought of either yesterday or this morning, but I’ve completely forgotten it. I guess that’s one side-effect of being busy at work and tired at home.
My email provider implemented something today I’ve been hoping for. As the amount of spam I’ve gotten has risen, [...]

It was a busy week.
Here at work we have two ongoing projects at the moment, and both are very similar to each other in that they’re both for web-based companies, both have similar requirements, and both have similar due dates. We all keep getting project requirements confused with each of the projects, and there [...]

I awoke this morning from a very confusing set of dreams that made no linear sense. That’s how most dreams are, I find, but this set was especially confusing to me, and I awoke once in the middle of the night to find my vision swirling when I immediately opened my eyes after waking [...]

I was faced with two separate computer problems yesterday and only managed to emerge victorious on one. [...]

Working here at…er…I guess I still can’t name the company but I don’t see the harm in linking to it so you can see for yourself…sure has given me an interesting perspective on corporate life. When I worked at Stream, I found Dilbert to be fabulously amusing because I lived and breathed in a [...]

Regarding the headline, it’s not quite what you think. I was mainly referring to drinking tea this morning for the first time in a few weeks. Since I stopped getting up at 5:15 every morning to jog, I’ve found that I’m much more tired during the day, and some lunches I’ve even caught [...]

As I was fiddling with my wireless router settings the other day, I noticed that there is another wireless network in range of my own, and it appears that the network is unsecured. That could spell a lot of fun for me if I wanted to be either humorous or malicious, depending on just [...]

This has been a pretty good week.
Despite my best efforts, my mind and my body have fought the good fight and one of them–I’m not sure which, yet–won and I can’t bring myself to rise at 5:15 AM any more. Since I’m not jogging before work every day, I’m not getting the amount of [...]
