[…] The fifteenth is my last day at Law Bulletin. I need to put my two weeks in this Friday..

Sample Resignation Letters

11:57

[…] It’s very exciting. I’ll be out of here. While it is a GREAT place to work for, I wish I had more responsibility and less down time. It’s fucking boring. I’d rather be bored at home doing nothing than bored at work and feeling awkward because I’m getting paid to pretend to look busy. That’s not… work, that’s cheating.

Namon at least got most of Office 2000 back on here. No access for me, but that’ll just be even more reason for Jon to upgrade me. Though all signs point to him not doing so. Namon started saying.. some things about Jon. I don’t know true any of them are, but I could see them.. maybe.. Namon also told me about how he went to Alabama State for an education but came out of it with a kid. Actually.. he mentioned that most of his kids were mistakes. I never found out if he has one or more baby mamas.

He seems like a cool guy. Dad is from Southfield? Loves hockey. Loves the Wings. His sixteen year old kid lives with mother in Mobile, Alabama but visits every summer. The went to see some Blackhawks games a while back. I’ve been meaning to go to a Blackhawks game, preferably when their facing the Wings.

This is my first 7-11 run in ages, and only because I was starving and didn’t have time to hit Center Court for lunch this morning. It literally took like three minutes. I wonder if when whoever looks at my fob record they’ll wonder why I fobbed out at 12:10ish and why I fobbed right back in like three minutes later. Should I really have even bothered? I get paid a hefty sum on Friday. I get paid a heftier sum two weeks after that, which is also the second day of school. I figured I’d take the Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday before school off to get things in order. […]

I grabbed two string cheeses at 7-11. I am excited to eat those.

[…]

I am so cold right now, I don’t know why. I’m moving my leg a ridiculous amount.

12:28

[…]

Why am I so cold?

I really need to lift.. something. Anything. Helping the kids move in two weeks ago proved to me a) how much I need to do it and b) how easy it can be. They’re like.. a million (twelve) years young, right? Well, their suitcases or whatever were like five (one and a half, maybe) times their size, so Casey and I took them up to the third floor of South hall for the kids. Well, my arms were damn sore, but it only took like, what, ten to fifteen minutes to move all that? I need to find some sort of physical labor that would tax my upper body without me really thinking expressly about working out.

1:03

Hm.. actually got some work done on my AutoTester script.. It’s gettin’ there.. I really hope I’m not doing this for the next two and a half weeks.

Everyday around 10AM, 1PM, and 4PM I get an email. Everytime I think it’s something real, someone trying to contact me, and I feel a little less lonely and bored here at work. But then I see a new emailed in the PNN/SII folder and realize it’s just the automated PNN to SII Submission Batch Process…

Guilty pleasure admission: I like Beyonce’s Irreplaceable. Also t.A.T.u (I need more of their songs).

I hope this Bawls (in a can, ew) helps me stay awake today.

Namon was bitching about how I was on an NT machine as my main work machine, that it wouldn’t help me with my schooling (what? I’m thinking he meant like work experience for school or something? I’m not sure). He asked me how I could use this machine and not get frustrated. “It’s only a summer job.” Then we shared a terrorist fist-jab.

All of my name searches in AccessPlus are for “Rademacher” because it is not only fairly rare in the database (there’s still results, though, which is fun), but because I can type it completely with my left hand (with a swift slide to the right for the ‘m’).

Man, I really hope whoever looks at this script after I’m done and gone appreciates my comments and stuff. I should spent a whole day one of these next weeks commenting the shit out of this and put it in my DSR as “commented script to make it more understandable to others.”

1:23

1:43

Yum yum string cheese.

Ooh… you touch my tralala…
Mmmm… my ding ding dong..
(mmm..!)

I just stuck a little header on my script

#By Tony Lademan (2008)
#For Law Bulletin Publishing Company
#Quality Assurance department

It’s within my rights, yeah? I mean, not that I’d have any use for this script outside of LBPC, but still.. it’s not a bad idea to have my name attached to things I’ve written.

Speaking of things I’ve written, I need to get on integrating MSN and ICQ support into that plugin I’m modifying. I’ve already had two requests (one for each) over the weekend, so I should probably get on that tonight. It’s not too hard, just gotta figure out how to recompile the Python egg.. <_<

2:06

Ehhh… my stomach feels funny. Maybe I shouldn’t have let that cheese sit at room temperature for almost an hour and a half..

2:18

I put in this LOGGEDIN variable and check so that JUST THIS wouldn’t happen:

Sorry , Invalid Username/Password or Inactive Account!

It seems that logging in too fast/often results in the account being locked for a short period of time.

Oh look, there’s a Work Request in my name for Office Pro to be reinstalled. Namon, you’re a cool guy, really. He’s talking with Jon right now.. They’re… going to wipe the disk? Time to back up my stuff to the SQA server…

2:38

Whoo.. Running Win2000 on a Pentium 2 with 256mb of RAM… Why is the p2 mounted veritcally? Why is the heatsink so stupid looking? Namon’s gonna drop XP on my old machine (a p3). Shouldn’t take too long. Worst case I’ll have it back sometime tomorrow.

I can’t install AutoTester on this machine because the cdrom isn’t hooked up and the IDE cable in there doesn’t have a second connection on it.

FUN STUFF

2:51

Oops I didn’t have to move the machines, he’s going to do it right here, oh well. WinXP here I come.

3:00

My old machine has a 10GB harddrive. That’s special.

Namon commented on how fast I type earlier today.

Is it really already three? This day is flying.

Been listening to a a lot of.. hard? music lately at work. Time to give the Final Fantasy Piano Collections another go. IV’s is the best. I need to play it on the DS.. Got somewhat far on the PlayStation, but I refuse to play it again on the SNES (on my Wii) due to the shitty translation job. Though the SNES version has dialogue during the flashack in the intro, neither the PlayStation or the DS versions have that.. Kind of odd, I thought.

Casey suggested we go see Dark Knight at the IMAX again with Phil this weekend. I am excited. I wonder if we will be playing D&D? Alex is gonna be at home for the weekend I’m pretty sure and I don’t know what Jeremy is doing.

3:13

Seventeen minutes until my boss leaves for the day.

Typing this script up in Notepad with no way to test it is really lame. I don’t have the drive to work on it at the moment..

I just got really tired, too… Ugh.. stupid guarana crashes… asldkfsl;fj

Manjot has taken to emailing a friend or a family member or something during work hours. I can’t tell who the recipient is, it’s all in Indian.

I am thinking of buying Mario Kart Wii sometime soon. I miss racing online and just racing in general. Plus the time trials, that’s where it’s really at in that game.

3:42

AND HE’S OUTTA HERE

The name you chose for this PC earlier in the setup
TESTPC7
is already in use by a machine on this network.

Please choose another:
TESTPC007

I’m sure Namon won’t mind.

Jon told me to ask Namon for another IDE cable to hook up the cdrom in the 2000 machine I’m using at the moment. I don’t think I’ll do that..

4:02

Both Manjot and Mustafa are out of here. Another hour fifteen for me. I’m falling asleep. This can’t end well… Time IS flying, though, so maybe I can just make the most of it somehow.

Goddamnit! Got another PNN/SII email.. I was hoping someone finally moved the CourtBriefs fixes to production so I could do one last final test and send out the last approval email… BUT NO

Hm, I wonder how traffic jammed people would take to me blasting classical or piano music? That’s be pretty awesome. I used to go to/from work last summer blasting the local classical station, got some weird looks. I was a cool guy. Not that my car speakers can really blast, per se.

Speaking of my car, I really need to see why I have a ticket on it. I was told that, despite my being in the wrong lot, I would be fine because my car is currently disabled. I should also reenable it. Sometime this week or next week, for sure.. Ugh.. So much to do…

Tatyana’s out. It’s just me and Namon whenever he gets back and decides to finish the XP install. I can install XP for personal use and all, but I imagine there’s some network settings he has to give it so that it behaves properly on the LBPC network. Perhaps.

Conor didn’t come in today and we didn’t get an email from Jon saying “Conor will be out today.” Hm.. Namon said that Conor doesn’t know what he wants to do. He’s been here two years, he’s been a chef, and he is/has researching/ed theology. Hm.

I wonder how old both Mustafa and Conor are. They have little bits of gray hair and Conor has some thinning going on at the top of his head. Conor’s wife (maybe? he has a ring) had a baby two months ago. I.. really don’t want to be like either of them.. They’re both fairly.. nondescript and just.. here to work. The devs seem to be pretty cool, though. Joking around with each other, always talking to each other, ALWAYS HAVING STUFF TO DO. INTERESTING STUFF, TOO. Shortly after I got hired there was an opening for a Java dev. I’m pretty sure the employee handbook stated that I have to be in my current position some arbitrary amount (longer than I would be employed for anyway) of time before I can move around. And besides, the Java they’re doing here is probably far advanced compared to what I know (though I imagine I’d have a much better chance of understanding it if I had actually done any work for CS441 this summer…).

Nevermind, I think Namon’s outta here too. He just came over, did some stuff with the install then turned off the monitor and left. His shirt was untucked where previously I think it had been tucked in? Perhaps.

IT’S JUST ME GUYS. ME AND KELLY, BUT I DON’T TALK TO HIM ‘CAUSE HE’S ACROSS THE ROOM. SILLY DEVELOPERS.

4:15

4:26

The Final Fantasy IV Celtic Moon disc is actually pretty good too, a neat take on the game’s music.

I really need to reboot into Windows and get some more podcasts for these next two weeks.. I’m sure there’s at least two more shows of This Week in Tech to pick up as well as a few Paranormal Cafes. Should keep me entertained for all of… three days, maybe?

I hope you guys like long posts. Really, how many of you read ALL of the last one, and are reading ALL of this one? That’s a lot of time that you could be doing something more productive with your life. You should feel bad.

4:46

Some of these Chrono Trigger remixes sound slightly different on my Zune.. I wonder if it’s just because I haven’t listened to them in some time?

4:52

I need to grab more remixes from ocremix.org. I’m going through my Final Fantasy and Chrono Trigger ones right now and I forgot how GOOD some of them are. Damn. Not to mention the compilation projects.

I am really tempted to take one of these AutoTester One discs home and make a copy of it. The program is damn neat and I really wanna play with it more.

Things on my “to order” list:

• A Wii VGA Cable (~$50)
• A new keyboard (~$50)
• A mini RCA audio/video cable for my laptop (~$??)

5:09

Time to put this up and get out of here! Or email it to myself so that I can proof read it when I get home. Why are journal entries the only thing I proofread? Well, journal entries and messages to people, but I don’t proofread school papers or anything of that sort. Oh well, time to get movin’.

Today was pretty fun. A little before noon my boss brought Namon (I think?) over to upgrade both my and Manjot’s installs of Office 2000 to Office XP/2007/whatever. Works fine on her machine, she’s running XP. Seems to work fine on my NT machine, but.. I reboot like the installer wants me to and go to open the Access Database we use and… error city. OK, close Access, try to open the database again… wait, why are you searching for msaccess.exe? Why do the shortcuts to Access no longer work? Why is msaccess.exe GONE? What? Oh, great. How did this happen? Alright, reinstall Office… Nope, Access doesn’t even isntall this time. …OK, let’s put the old Office on… er.. installer exited prematurely due to an unexpected error? Cool! Not only can I now not access the database, I don’t have Outlook anymore either! Basically, I can’t really do anything at the moment. The dude said he was gonna go find the CD ’cause that might help (he was doing a network install before), but he never came back. …

Because this whole fiasco took about three hours or so, I wasn’t able to get lunch… So here I am starving with forty minutes left on the clock… I am going straight to Chipotle after work and getting another big-as-my-head burrito. It will be delicious and filling.

I definitely have a lot more money in my bank account than I thought, so I can totally justify buying this burrito. I might also be able to justify a new keyboard.. After using the laptop for the weekend, I realized how shit my five year old keyboard is. The space bar only works in the middle, a lot of keys either don’t hit or hit multiple times.. It’s annoying. I found a neat keyboard on newegg that’s about $50, same exact key layout as my current one (which is great, I love this layout), glows just the same, but looks to be of higher quality than mine. Thing is, a wired Apple keyboard is also $50, and that thing is sexy. I have heard of some issues with the Apple keyboard and Linux, but I’d have to do more research.

Half an hour..

I’ve been spending my free time doing a lot of… nothing. Well, nothing social or interesting, just playing around with my computers.. I got Skype working on the laptop, full webcam and front mic support too! Tested it with David last night, works pretty well. Someone Skype me at sugar_death sometime :(((

A while back Nicole linked me to a Youtube of some dude who took a picture of himself once per day for like.. a couple of years? I’m thinking about doing something like that. It’d be pretty neat. I look like shit in one of the test pictures I took Sunday morning after I installed Cheese.

I can totally camwhore now that I’ve got the mic working too.. <_<

I really hope my boss gets me a new machine… an XP machine. How many of our clients are really using NT still, anyway? How many of our apps are web based? The majority of them, right? That’s OS independent there. Give me an XP machine already!

I feel so disconnected without email. It’s pretty awesome. I can’t see if I’m supposed to test these three work requests in production that I’ve been working on. I can’t… see anything. I can’t send my boss a Daily Status Report.. Haha, that’ll be fun to explain tomorrow. “Yeah, he said he was coming back, but he didn’t.”

I should have quite a bit more money come this Friday, too. And then two weeks after that… and two weeks from that… I won’t be broke-ass for some time! It’ll be.. exciting. What will I do with that money? Buy food.

Ah! I forgot to grab my Costco card while at home… :/

I wonder if I should be saving these to my desktop as I type them? I haven’t deleted any yet, I’ve got two for yesterday and one for today. I can really delete them after I post them.. Laziness will fuck me over, watch.

Twenty minutes.. Go me for getting into work fifteen minutes late, thus leaving fifteen minutes late.

My timesheet has three hours unallocated to any Work Request. That’s a fair amount of time that I was watching Mr. Dude play around on my computer.

The AutoTester script that I was working on screws up massively when I make it start searching… It’s a pain in the ass. Actually, no, what it is is that the developers set the address for a ‘Terms of Use’ link on this ONE page to $CURRENT_ADDRESS + “#” instead of linux-ts/test/apweb/terms.cfm. Ugh. I should email Melanie about it so she could fix it quickly..

OH WAIT

Gay.

Fifteen minutes.

When leaning forward, my bangs (can they really be called bangs at this length? I part my hair and they’re mostly off to the side) fall forward and hit me on the mustache area. I can almost get them in my mouth if I try (well that sounded dirty).

Twelve.

I like how I can write and write while bored at work but I can’t arse myself to even open WordPress to begin writing while bored at home.

I really should have left Dude Man at my computer and gone to get lunch anyway. The hunger pains were pretty bad for a while there… but they’re gone now for some reason. I don’t understand it.

Man I love the YTMND soundtracks. Number eight has The Lonely Man Theme, which some of you may recognize as the end credits music for the old Incredible Hulk TV show.

ALSO AXEL F. I think I may have mentioned this before?

Four.

Lights off in the server room.

Lots of TV themes.. Cheers, Flintstones, Bill Nye, MacGuyver, The Price is Right, and a few others?

Out of here. Big ass burrito time!

Woot. Got Feldspar and Andy playing nicely via Synergy (a network based KVM). It’s like having two monitors, but it also gives me an extra 60GB harddrive, 2GB RAM (MORE THAN ANDY), and the ability to run programs on feldy instead of andy (like, say, my music client which will just connect to mpd on andy.. speaking of, i need to get pythoning). I am actually looking forward to controlling my music feldspar. It’ll be fun. I get great download speeds on him too, stupid wired network slowing down andy..

I need a new keyboard for Andy… and I have a lot more money in my bank than I thought… I might go for the new mac keyboard? I need to read up on how it behaves under Linux..

So, um, this weekend was… interesting. Yeah, that’s the word. Some bad… a good amount of.. good. I think we’ll leave it at that for now..?

Welcome Feldspar, a Taiwanese/Korean Sony VAIO Casey found in the trash on second grad! The install of WinXP was pretty borked so Casey put his XP on it and it seemed fine and now I’ve got Xubuntu on it. All it cost to me was twenty bucks for the extra RAM that Casey popped in it. I’m copying over most of Andy’s settings so my program settings are all good and what not. I am EXCITED I don’t necessarily need to get Ophiuchus as soon because I have a backup in case Andy’s vid card decides to shit on me soon.

It’s really light and small. I like it a lot.

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
From the mountains of faith
To the river so deep
I must be lookin’ for something
Something sacred I lost
But the river is wide
And it’s too hard to cross
even though I know the river is wide
I walk down every evening and stand on the shore
I try to cross to the opposite side
So I can finally find what I’ve been looking for
In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the valley of fear
To a river so deep
I’ve been searching for something
Taken out of my soul
Something I’d never lose
Something somebody stole
I don’t know why I go walking at night
But now I’m tired and I don’t want to walk anymore
I hope it doesn’t take the rest of my life
Until I find what it is I’ve been looking for

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the jungle of doubt
To the river so deep
I know I’m searching for something
Something so undefined
That it can only be seen
By the eyes of the blind
In the middle of the night

I’m not sure about a life after this
God knows I’ve never been a spiritual man
Baptized by the fire, I wade into the river
That is runnin’ to the promised land

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the desert of truth
To the river so deep
We all end in the ocean
We all start in the streams
We’re all carried along
By the river of dreams
In the middle of the night

I don’t do lyrics. Why am I doing lyrics?

The Taiwanese kids are surprisingly good at basketball. My arm is scratched to hell from trying to fish the volleyball out from the canopy of a fucking thorn tree. Sat atop some taller girl’s shoulders (musta been taller than Casey). I counted at least sixteen scratches on my left arm and hand and a puncture in the palm (thankfully nothing broke off in me, unlike that poor kid… like half an inch of thorn.. goddamn). Like… two on my right. Despite my right-handedness, I do a surprising number of tasks with my left. That was twenty dollars right there.

Tonight is fireworks at Navy Pier. Should be pretty awesome.

There’s so much crap on my bed that I just shove it all to the side so that it’s half on the window sill, half eating up bed space. I’ve got… a towel, a few shirts, socks, my bag, perhaps my khaki pants? (I need to find those..), my pajama pants.. Usually my bed has to be empty save for a blanket or two and a pillow. I dunno why I don’t care at the moment.

There’s stuff on my glasses… Usually I’m OCD about having clean glasses too but… Whatever. I’ve gotten so lazy and laidback lately it’s terrible. It will come to bite me in the ass BIGTIME, I can see it coming.

This theme looks better in Opera than it does in Firefox, maybe it’s a default fonts thing. Or maybe I changed Opera’s display fonts? I don’t recall.

The kids are surprisingly good at English, I think the main problem is that they’re shy or unconfident in their abilities. Usually they’ll say little blurbs of keywords to me, but perhaps that’s because this is only the second time they’ve seen me.

Late night talks are good, fun, a little detrimental to waking up on time; but hey, that’s alright.

Somehow by using the auto update for the BBCode plugin, I managed to break the TTF Titles plugin that gave me pretty rendered titles in any font I wanted. It still displayed and stuff, but I couldn’t get into the settings manager to change width limitations. Screw it, the ttf titles looked a bit out of place in this theme anyway. I keep thinking I see daylight out the window, but we’ve got about an hour until that happens…

I get to take my SOC302 exam early today due to hangin’ with the kids tonight.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
-Mark Twain

Found this quote while looking for another one… in my backgrounds folder.

life sucks. music doesnt.

There we go. It’s kinda true. I love music. It’s amazing. I can’t play it… (bad experiences, probably scarred for life, pianos haunt my dreams) But I sure can enjoy it. I like to think that I enjoy a wide variety of music, just as long as it isn’t beggars banging in rhythm on the floor of the trains trying to get money. That or Rap. And newer Country. But like Jazz, Classical, Rock, Alternative, Pop, whatever Enya falls under (though I’ve only heard one of her songs). Oh, and not Christian Rock. God no. (hahaha) The train rides to/from work would be immesely boring and long were it not for my Zune. Work itself would be immensly boring and long were it not for my Zune. Though lately I’ve been listening to podcasts more than music. Last week and the week before I caught up on a ton of Leo Laporte’s This Week in Tech radio shows and this week I’ve started listening to the Paranormal Cafe. They had some decent stuff on the Betty and Barney Hill abduction, and the Philadelphia Experiment and Montauk Project. Though the guy talking about the latter two was obviously a loon (he was a bird?), as he claimed to have seen a Thunderbird (and therefore became a Shaman in his native american circle) as well as to having multiple conversations with someone who is supposedly him from the future. He had some neat information about the actual topic of the interview, but the rest of it kind of made me think about him… less.

The interview about John Titor (wiki) was especially interesting. I had read about him once before somewhere several years ago. Basically the story goes something like this: Baby John Titor is born in 1998. In 2036 the military sends him back in time to 1975 to recover an IBM 5100 computer because I guess it could interface with the mainframes they had or something? He made a pitstop in 2000/1 ish and spent some time with his parents (who were suprisingly understanding). It was during this time that a serious of posts made by “John Titor” appeared on various time travel forums. He made a lot of predictions, many cryptic, many not so. One of his was that the methods to time travel will be discovered at CERN. Shortly after he predicted that, CERN announced the developmment of the Large Hadron Collider (which some believe will end the world, but that’s a different story). The gigantic hard-ons (if someone could get me the motivational of the “Large Hardon Collider,” I would appreciate it ) will be colliding in roughly sixteen days. Perhaps they’ll find a way to harness the power of the mini-blackholes that supposedly allow Titor’s time machine to do it’s thing? He also stated that there would be no more Olympic games after the 2004 summer games. There WERE 2006 winter games, but appprently it looks like the 2008 summer games in Beijing are on shaky ground? The reason Titor needed the IBM 5100 was because of a special function it had that very few people knew about. Later a member of the team who developed the machine came forward and confirmed that the machine did have that functionality and that only ten or so members knew about it. There’s also a bunch of other little things.

I’m uploading the two podcasts (it’s one interview, just chopped up) to http://sugardeath.net/podcasts/paracafe/. They should be up by the time that most of you read this (hell, probably by the time that I’m done writing this).

Yeah, a lot of his predictions came true, but a good number of his predictions have also not come true. Or at least, not yet as some believe. Titor says that a second American civil war would start in 2004 or 5 (I don’t remember), but that the actual shooting would not start until 2008. I haven’t read anything anywhere that would indicate unrest, but my initial thought was that there might be some issues if Obama gets elected (the whitehouse would become a blackhouse, etc.). The dude in the interview actually suggests that it might be related to immigration or illegal aliens near Mexico. In response to a question a forumer asked of him, Titor responded with something along the lines of “Well, let’s just say that Spanish is popular in that region [Texas].”

I haven’t looked through the johntitor.com website yet, but I hope to eventually. The podcast should provide enough information to pique fascination. I mean, sure, the whole thing is probably some retarded prank; but you have to admit that it is damn fascinating.

I think… I think I should get some sleep now. Jacki was all “I should get to bed, it’s almost 4AM” (wuss). Well, it’s almost 4:30 now here, so I should probably get too (wuss).

I hope they have some more interesting stuff like this on the Paranormal Cafe. UFOs and stuff are interesting here or there, but I want to learn more about things like the Philladelphia Experiment, the Montauk Project (which if you haven’t read about yet, is supposedly very related to the Philadelphia Experiment…), people like John Titor, etc. I’d be especially stoked if they did any of the cryptids I’ve been reading about lately. I never use the word stoked.

Seriously though, if you have nothing to do for about an hour and a half or so, or can easily divide your attention, listen to the two podcasts I uploaded (in order, please, they’re labeled). The host is kind of annoying in the beginning, but once they get into it, it’s some good shit.

With that, I’m probably out of here. Gotta be rested for examination in the afternoon.

I was finally able to get my hotkeys for MPD set up like I used to have Winamp/Foobar in Windows. Because I don’t use KDE, I could never get the Amarok hotkeys to work when the window wasn’t focused, and so I had to open the window all the time and it was annoying when playing a game if I wanted to change the song… Poop like that. Well, there’s a client for MPD called MPC (how imaginative). It’s a simple command line program that just sends chosen commands to MPD when executed. Set up ALT+CTRL+KP_INS in your favorite window mananger to execute mpc toggle and you have an easy access play/pause button. Hot shit. I am really digging this server/client interface for a freaking music manager.

I don’t believe I have a category that all this paranormal stuff fits under… and I don’t feel like creating a specific ‘paranormal’ category, so… welcome the ‘interesting’ category! Maybe it’ll be used more than ‘humor.’ Maybe I should start using tags, too. Maybe I should tag/categorize my old blogger.com posts (of which there are roughly three-hundred or so? Only about a fifth of my current post count (the post count in the theme lies… it’s the post ID, I’ve deleted/not published many posts… I’ll maybe fix it)

I am extremely amused by my new [two week old] mouse theme.
