I’ll stop procrastinating tomorrow

July 15th, 2010 No comments

Oh hey!  We’re leaving for Reno tomorrow!  It’s 9:30pm and I ain’t done shit yet!  In fact, we, as a unit, haven’t done shit yet!  We gotta look in the fridge and see what we have and therefore what we can make to bring for food.  And that will tell us what we need to go to the store for, which we haven’t done yet.  Oh yeah…I gotta do some laundry as well.

Good thing we need to get up SUPER early to hit the road to make it there in one day.  Sweet…

And I haven’t charged all the batteries for my various electronic devices!  I hope the local grid is at 100% cuz I got the camera, the iPod, the HD camcorder, the beater old point-n-shoot and who knows what else I need to power up…

Hmmmm….let’s see how this goes.

“get together your shit, and move your ass to a proper toilet”

- Fishbone

Now that I’ve decided to get my shit together vis a vis this very neglected blog, I’m trying to make sure that everything that is important will look completely awesome and all that shit.  The thing that sucks is that the feature that enabled one to click on my pics and have them enlarge with a cool animation…that seems to be broke.

DAMMIT, JIM!

So now I’m all pissed.  Gonna have to go into all the code and figure out what the hell is going wrong and why can’t the particular plugin work right n shit.

More later…

not this crap again!?

How many times can I say that I’m changing the look of this site, and then do exactly that, only to abandon the site altogether to rot like the raccoon carcasses I see on the side of the road during my morning rides?

Apparently a lot.

However, I’m gonna get back on that horse and start ‘er up again.  I’ve been learning a lot about how the web works in the last year.  That sounds weird, but working in web development has shown me when to do what, and why.  Also, the advent of Twitter and Facebook have had an impact on how we as a society view the web and how we affect and interact with it.

I’ve come to realize that Facebook has alleviated my need to tell the world the weird things that happen to me on a daily basis.  The screwy thing about that is that the short nature of Facebook posts doesn’t allow for a long-winded and descriptive dingdong like me to really get into it.  I know you can post Notes, but if I’m going to waste a lot of energy telling bored people a bunch of useless information, I’m going to do it right here.  And of course, that goes double for Twitter.

The main thing I’ve noticed, and what makes me realize that I need to blog on my own site, is that since I’ve gotten a smartphone, I pretty much only surf Facebook and Twitter when I’m on the throne.  That means that not only am I just surfing in a very superficial way, I’m also not using the full capability of those sites, since I rarely visit them on a computer.

Okay, there you have it.  Look for more posts soon enough.
