My company gives us 5 “Personal Days” and 10 Vacation Days a year. I have taken 0 vacation days so far, and few personal days. This was just brought up to me. Unfortunately, our policy is that if I don’t take my vacation days, I don’t get an extra paycheck or anything. But, due to… Continue reading 5 Days

NOLA Municipal Wi-Fi
So, it’s up. I’m typing this post from inside General Zod™ at the corner of Carondelet and Common Proof (taken by the new camera): The antenna is the light-colored box with two vertical antennas on top of the traffic light pole. Hooray, NOLA.
Ooh! Shiny!
So, good news: My new Digital Camera came in today! Firefox 1.5 was released! NOLA CBD/DDD Free Wi-Fi! Jonah is worried about what kind of fiscal effect this will have on his company, but I think he’s overly concerned. At it’s current speed of 512 kb/s, and the future speed of 144kb/s, there is no… Continue reading Ooh! Shiny!
He catches thieves just like flies
So, there are a few pictures of me as Peter Parker from this past Halloween. Travis however, has me beat, hands down. I tip my hat to the better of two Spideys. And for those of you not on MySpace, here are some more of Travis. I have to cut this post short – I… Continue reading He catches thieves just like flies
Olfactory Tattoo
Today, I fought with General Zod™, and switched out the fuel filter. He’s running a bit better now, but I still need to flush the engine and get an oil change. I’d do the oil change myself, but I’d rather take it to that oil change place on St. Charles so that the oil will… Continue reading Olfactory Tattoo
2 / 1 (aka 10/05 aka Oct. 2005)
Or, October: the Month that Was™, in digicam form. So yeah, a taste of my October, as recorded by Kat’s camera. Much fun, says I. Voodoofest, Happy Talk Band / Morning 40 Federation / NIN shows, Noisition Coalition, Halloween, general goodness. And also, one from Jonah’s camera and one from Roxie’s camera that I also… Continue reading 2 / 1 (aka 10/05 aka Oct. 2005)
You’ve come a long way, baby.
I didn’t go to college. Well, that’s not entirely true. After being out of highschool for about three years, and working in computers that whole time, I decided that I wanted to take some classes in the evening on programming languages I didn’t know. I attended Freshman English (pre-req.) for approx. half a semester in… Continue reading You’ve come a long way, baby.
It’s Clear as Purple Crayon!
I just watched Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. I liked it. Kinda caught me off guard. And if you didn’t catch the reference in the title, or just want to watch it again, check out Star Wars Episode III: A Lost Hope . It’s pure dag-nasty funny, and everybody knows it. Ok… Continue reading It’s Clear as Purple Crayon!
Yeah I’m talking bout the road.
Not counting city driving, I have driven over 4,600 miles since Sept. 5th. This.is.not.regular.intra-city.miles. I haven’t owned a car in years. I’m not going anywhere for a while, dammit.
Extra Ticket to the Tri-Wizard Championships.
I attended the 12:01am showing of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire last night/this morning with Heather (her man, Cassady, couldn’t make it) and Jonah and Shanna. Neither Sonny nor Jude could make it either. :( I had one extra ticket. Anyways, I thought it was good overall. For a better review, look at… Continue reading Extra Ticket to the Tri-Wizard Championships.
