Guess I’ve been quite lately.
Had family here for Christmas, did alot of baking.
Got some great books, DVDs, and tasty scotch.
I have played far far too much Day of Defeat.
Been reading a photoshop book.
Eaten out way too much.
Had a major ass waterleak in the house, that’s all fixed and repaired now.
Still have to patch up the ceiling, that will be an enjoyable project.
On vacation this week. Whee!
Upgraded to the latest and greatest.. Movable Type Version 2.65.
Long live Six Apart!
Things around here have just been a bit slow on the blogging front.
Working a professional life in retail doesn’t give one alot of free time between November and January. Will try to catch up today.
A huge snow storm blanketing Massachusetts right now so I certainly won’t be doing much this weekend – a chance to clean up, finish decorating the tree, fiddle around on the computers, and do some cleaning.
Family arriving in a few weeks as well!
As for now, sipping some Decaf English Breakfast Tea and enjoying watching Galadriel monitor the snowplow progress.
Erin, who is far newer at this than I, is so much a better blogger than I.
I can’t recall being as excited about a piece of software since I was working on Manila in 1999. Part of the puzzle is finished. The items in the RSS feed for this weblog can be routed to categories. Now to the back-end. As the page is published, we watch for items with categories, and route them to the appropriate place. So if you want to get caught up on all the news from the Edwards campaign, there will be a place for that. Now of course a grad student could be working specifically on news of Edwards, maybe even on the press bus with Edwards. Maybe two grad students. Maybe thirty-two. And maybe the student who’s working on Boston weather comes across something relevant to Edwards-watchers. This shouldn’t be a problem. I told my friend Adam Curry in an email, the idea is that I can write for 100 weblogs, and 100 people can write for a specific weblog. We can get the overhead very low. This is how we’re going to scale up to cover the 2004 election. It’s a moon mission. Each user will get some new software and an assignment. It’ll be a project like 24 Hours of Democracy in 1996, a demo of neat net tricks and a way for people with weblog skills to make a difference. And of course if an event like 9/11 comes along, we’ll be that much better prepared to cover it. [Scripting News]
Unbelievable.
Hello – if you write something online, then you should expect to have commentary written about it. If you can’t deal with that, then don’t publish.
Good god. Grow some thicker skin.

I am a horrendously inconsistent blogger. I tend to move from day to day sometimes posting items of interest and then moving on to something else – rarely writing anything original.
In some ways, I blog in order to have a sort of internal search engine of my own – a place where I can post things that really interest me and then know that they are there for the next time that I want to look into this.
I think I’d really like to be the kind of blogger that posts originally – like the things I used to write and take such pride in.. but I haven’t quite felt the motivation to do so.. nor am I sure I want to lay things out quite that publically yet. Probably need to noodle that one over some more…
Erin does a fantastic job blogging over at Alma Libra – her works are filled with deep emotion and show a reflection far past her actual age… I only wish that I was willing to bare my soul quite like that once again…
