I went to see Dr. Wilson this morning for my first post-op appointment. I took pictures. Warning, they’re pretty cool (cool = gross).
Like yesterday’s post about del.icio.us tag clouds, this was an experiment because I was bored. I figured it was so easy to make the link tag cloud, it should be almost as easy to create one from my categories. The challenge is that I have almost 1600 entries (actually, this is #1600!): so many that […]
Tired of writing markup? Make too many stupid mistakes, like unclosed tags, unescaped ampersands, unquoted attributes, etc? Stop writing markup in a plain old text editor and switch to an XML editor!\ I’ve been using OxygenXML to write markup for several months now and I find that I make far fewer mistakes there than I […]
Someone on the Movable Type ProNet list asked how to import their del.icio.us tag cloud into thier blog a couple days ago, and since I’m stuck here on the couch, I’d see if I could figure out an easy way to do it… and you know what, there is!\ All you need to install is […]
I got about two hours of sleep. It’s really hard to sleep with a foot that’s on fire.\ You may notice a couple different things if you read the main page of the site. I’ve added a couple links, and moved some stuff around. What’s cool, is it took very little markup changes to do […]
Someone at work asked about this and I can’t find the answer. And, because my foot hurts and I can’t sleep, I figured I’d give it a shot.\ This is my attempt, and it doesn’t work in anything but Opera 8.5 (that I’ve tested so far), as you can see. Any ideas?\ Before you start, […]
First Sheryl Swoopes, and now George Takai come out of the closet. It must be the week for it. Ok, my turn. I was in the closet this morning, and now I’m out. I was looking for a shirt, and with the crutches and the fact that my closet is upstairs? I don’t plan on […]
We’re home, I have a big splint/bandage combination on my leg, and I’m high… high as a kite.\ Dr. Wilson says everything went well, but I forgot to ask him if I could keep the bone. Stupid oxycontin.\ I don’t expect to do much for the next couple weeks except watch movies, take a lot […]
I could take a new one, but I just don’t have time between now and surgery on Friday. I think this’ll have to do.\ This photo came from my first trip to Dublin – although I should probably just ask Dan if I can use this one
You’d think that having a blog would have prepared me for this moment. For SxSW, I have to write a short and long bio… about me. You would think that someone who talks as much as I do would be able to come up with a paragraph describing myself. But, every time I start, I […]
