God, I hate Blogger. All I want to do is change one link and it won't let me do it. Oh it pretends to, it even logs into my server und uploads the new file, but no update. I've almost got iBlog working the way I want and then I can be free of blogger.

Another exciting blog entry!


Sorry folks, I've been vegging in front of the TV when I haven't been unpacking my new apartment. the living room almost looks presentable. ;-)

Work has kept me busy and tired and in need of relaxation without much effort so that means no computer obsession. :-)

And that, folks, is why I haven't blogged as much recently.

Well, I haven't done any work on the new blog template. I have begun working on the new look for my website and will finish the blog template once I have that worked out. The current dark look is very cool on my monitor, but some of it can barely be read on my friend Andarius' monitor. So I'm going to make it brighter and hopefully nicer looking. I'll keep you all posted of my progress. I'm off to work now for some more weekend fun! ;-)

Here is a link to the prototype of the new blog.

Prototype Blog

Eventually I would like it to be indistinguishable from this one.

There are only email comments at this point. I shouldn't have any trouble implimenting the comment code once I have the rest of it right. Once I have it the way I want it I will buy i Blog.

6 Months To Live?


Ok, 6 months plus 60 or so years.

My blood pressure is fine.

110 over 72.

Haven't had any bloodwork done for 9 years so I'm doing that next week just because it can't hurt to check the cholesterol and all that.

Trying to unpack more tonight. This is getting ridiculous.

High Blood Pressure?


We shall see. I'm off to the Doctor's office at 2:40pm today. The first day I went to see him after having not seen him in many, many years, my blood pressure was a little high. I was kinda nervous. When I visited my surgeon about the cyst on my neck I was nervous and my BP was a little high. The day of the surgery it was normal as I was just happy to have the cyst removed. The day I went to have the stitches out I was nervous as I knew it would hurt, so my BP was high. My surgeon called my doctor and told him to check my BP. My doctor left a message on my machine about it and one on my parent's machine. I guess doctor patient confidentiality is meaningless.

Oh well. I'll post more after the appointment.

Trying an app I found called iBlog, today. Several of the reviews spoke of how blogging seemed intimidating until they tried it. So far, it's intimidating to me, but then I've customized my blogger template so much that starting from scratch sucks. I suppose I should really finish my HTML/CSS book so I can really learn how to do this stuff. I have too many interests and I float from one to another, seldom completing anything.

I haven't posted any links to my sad attempts at using iBlog, but if I have success I'd like to switch the whole blog to it. Oh well, we'll see where it goes from here.

Dad, hasn't blogged in a while. I know he reads my blog though.

Meg is back from vacation and posting away again.

Haven't seen an entry from Talisak in a while.

Well, that's enough for now. I'm going to play with iBlog some more and then hit the hay.

The problem is supposed to be fixed now. Let's see.

Bahh, I must break free of blogger, but I can't figure out how to run scripts on MacHTTP, my server software.

My new goal is to never say anything that can be taken the wrong way. Oh and to stop bitching at work. And to not partake in gossip, also at work. And......

Bah, never mind.

I received my review today at work. It was mostly good. It inspired the above goals. I guess if I'm worried about my team members talking shit about me, then i should just keep my own damn mouth shut too. Nothing but kind words from me for now on.

Wish me luck. ;-)
