Holy Visitors

Ok. So I have access to some basic site stats through my host. I sift through the info most nights, just to see if I can glean any information on how many folks are visiting and what areas they’re interested in. It doesn’t identify individuals, but it gives me a pretty general sense of where…

Winterizing

After work, I stopped off at Home Depot with Justin. I was running late this morning and figured, what the hell… and drove in to work. I’ve been meaning to insulate the apartment a bit more, as this place just seems to bleed heat. So: Home Depot, and a few of those interior window Saran-Wrap…

Hello Sweden!

So, over the past few days, I’ve noticed a bit of a spike in the traffic to this site. Mostly, it seems like peoeple are linking up that experiment I made combining music and pi. Most days, I sift through the generic web stats program that I have through my host. But I ended up…

Nerd Story

Here’s a fantastically nerdy fact that I need to record: during a bout of insomnia (after he had slept for most of the day, due to illness), Justin found himself awake in bed at midnight. After a lot of tossing and turning for a few hours, he attempted to bore himself to sleep by conjuring…

Artful Dodging

I got a call from Justin, who’s been under the weather recently, ever since the Thanksgiving holidays. Well tonight he was feeling a bit better, and needed to get out of the house. After talking a bit, I decided to take him up on a drink offer and we made plans to meet up at…

Grouper

Got a link from Mr. Grumpy, and just installed Grouper. It’s a private P2P program, and looks pretty good. You can stream files from a friend’s computer (and share files to boot).

Binge

So I watched a craptacular amount of The West Wing today. Although, sadly, a lot of the episodes so far I’ve somehow already seen. Maybe when I first caught the bug, I happened to be watching reruns of Season 3. I first got sucked into this show when I realized that it was on on…

Movies

Tonight was pretty laid back. Dad got home early from work, and my mom and I rented a few movies to watch. We stayed up until maybe 1:00 AM, munching on grapes, watching movies, sitting on the couch and a big blanket stretched between the three of us. Fun stuff, and very relaxing. It’s good…

Lunch and Camera Envy

Had lunch with my sister and her husband Shane. I went over to visit his “work” house, and learned a bit more about his venture to raise fish. Specifically, the species known as “discus.” I think I’ve got that spelled right. Shane has this house set up, and in the basement… he’s got a ton…
