I’ve discovered that my blog posts stopped cross-posting over to my LiveJournal account at some point in September. Many of my more vocal friends actually read my posts over there, so anything I’ve said since then might as well have…
That’s It. I’ve joined the cult.
Of the iTouch, that is. It started relatively innocently. I got my first iPod this summer, finally giving up the wee little MP3 player that has served me fairly well for years. That and an older Palm PDA were all I…
Dollhouse Fans? TV stuff
Do any of you record Dollhouse? We don’t do cable, so Katie and I have been watching it streaming on Hulu. This coming Friday’s episode isn’t going to be streamed, though, and we don’t want to miss it. Any chance…
Victory!
On with the quotations obsession project. I swear, it’ll be useful for something other than keeping me busy. Someday! Does anybody know PHP/MySQL well enough to help me do that? Anyway, one reason that I keep going is little successes like…
Who is/was Vascavus?
I’m still playing with my quotations database. I have a perfectly lovely item that I’d like to include, but I can’t find any information at all about the author, “Vascavus.” I’ve Googled and searched otherwise. The only place I find…
I missed what?
It was National Grammar Day AND Gamemaster’s Day, and I didn’t realize either until the day was almost over! It was date night, though, and my favorite GM and I did play, so at least there’s that. I’ll have to…
Nerd Joy!
We’ve been scanner-deprived for many months now, because the multifunction printer gave up the ghost. We acquired an older model HP scanner via Freecycle a while back, but it wouldn’t work. The moving bit inside had been locked down for…
Blah — Spammers Are Scum
Not that it’s news to anyone, I know. But Defensio was down this evening (because of an Amazon server failure), which meant that all of our sites have been slammed with comment spam. They all get hit constantly, but it’s…
New Addiction
Whoops! What have I done to myself? I was frustrated that there were a fair number of books on my “shelves” at Good Reads that had no associated cover image. I collected all but, I think, two of the cover…
Good Reads Migration Finished!
That was not painless at all. The import feature is tetchy, at best. I had to go through the entire list of 1300+ books and fix their “bookshelf” assignments as well as add some that just didn’t import at all.…
