Back in Black and #006600
It's been so long, I almost forgot how to add a new entry with Movable Type. Sheesh. *Kermit face* Ready for some randomness as I get ready to start blogging again more regularaly?
Things are settling down a little bit with the house. We are having some new windows put in this week, which will have screens, so that we can actually open the windows all the way without
1. the cats getting out
or
2. the spiders getting in
We're in the middle of figuring out a plan to wire the house for ethernet and cable. Right now we have one working connection that we have to share, with cat5 cables draped to our respective computers and the Xbox. I just got the urge to play DDR, but I should probably go to work instead.
Fefferbee, listen up - The next time I'm in Seattle, I want you to go here with me: The Science Fiction Museum and Hall of Fame. It's by the Space Needle. I just learned that Neil Gaiman is MCing the induction of George Lucas, Anne McCaffrey, Frank Kelly Freas and Frank Herbert. Sweet.
I went to the local library to sign up for a card yesterday, and when I got there I realized that I had forgotten proof of residence. I went in anyway to look around, and I was impressed with the size of the library for the size of the town in which I now live. I tried not to pick up too many books because I couldn't check anything out, but just got a feel for the library.
People who go to libraries hopefully know what I mean by that. Different libraries are just different. I remember going to the downtown Cleveland library when I was a kid and being totally blown away by the "old" feeling and awesome architecture. Smaller towns, and even the downtown Cincinnati library, don't have that. But the good news is that I think I'll be comfortable in the new library. The librarian at the desk was the nicest I remember a librarian being (to a stranger, at least) in a long time.
Fighting... DDR... coffee making me so awake... must use alertness for work. See ya!
