So Much To Say, So Much To Do

Like Christine, I've had a lot I want to say and do around this place, but I haven't really had the energy more than the time to do it. I still want to post an in-depth post about Vegas, I have some pictures to get out of the Pencam, tons of e-mails to answer, and I've got a lot of little things I need to take care of around the house, not to mention a skin idea I've had for months. Poor BiblioBlog hasn't been updated in months, though I've finished ten more books or so since the last update.

It's been easy not to do any of these things since I've started the Lexapro. I've been thinking about how I feel since I've been on it and the answer is much better, desite being so tired all the time. I know my blood pressure is a bit higher (normal as opposed to low), so that may have something to do with it. Plus, I've started drinking more Sprites than Cokes, so my caffiene intake is probably lower too.

Well, we've got friends coming over in an hour and since I'm sitting her in a t-shirt and boxes with my hair in a towel, glasses on, and no make-up, I guess I better go get ready. Maybe over the holiday I can make it a goal to get some of this stuff done.

Holiday

Man, is there anything better than the start of a three day weekend?

I stopped on the way home and bought the most beautiful beta I've ever seen (bringing the total number of betas up to three) to add to our fishy family.

I got second place in a poker tournament, my raspberry candle smells delicious, we're going to Chinese Cafe for dinner, and drinking is about to commence. Ah, life is good.

The Philosophy of The Matrix: Reloaded

Incredibly interesting (and deep) article on the philosophy of The Matrix: Reloaded. Lots of ideas that I hadn't even considered that opened up whole new ways of seeing the movie.

Tons of Pictures

Thirty-one new photos have made their way into Picture Fish.

Some of my favorites include an untouched self-portrait and a lomoized one. I also love this picture of me (it shows my new blonde hair off beautifully). There are some great landscape shots and some from our zoo visit. There are even some interesting skyline shots and a new Bella picture.

You can see all of the new ones here.

Access Problems

I got home yesterday with a brand new Ryukin goldfish to add to our fishy family. While floating him (helps the fish adjust to the new water temperature) I went to go check my e-mail only to find that the Internet was down. I called Road Runner and learned that there were outages in the area and they had no idea when it would be up. Unfortunately, it was still down when I got up this morning, so while I'm hoping I have access when I get home, I'm not necessarily betting on it.

BlogShares has been real volatile today, so I'm goint to be pissed if I can't get on tonight and everything crashes and my portfolio makes takes a dive. I am this close to being a millionaire.

Get 'Em While They're Hot

I issued some new shares in the Neurotic Fishbowl over at BlogShares, so get 'em while they're hot!

FYI

Me and everyone else on one of the servers over at Blogomania got hacked yesterday. Rebuilding my index files fixed the issue except for the skin selector page and the smilies palette.

I'll probably have to recreate those pages since I don't have a current back-up of the skins page and I don't think I have one at all of the smilies index page at all. It shouldn't take a long time, but don't expect to see them until later tonight.

Fucking hackers.

Updated: Looks like Christine re-uploaded those files for me, so everything should be back in order. It's good to know people in high places.

Lazy Day Sunday

I spent most of the day watching stuff that the TiVo recorded while we were on vacation and playing a little poker (first place in a tournament, which is always nice).

I've also started sorting through my vacation photos and some that we took at the zoo and while back. The first few are showing up over in Picture Fish, so feel free to go have a look. These first ones are lomoized through a Photoshop action and I really like how they look.
