Reloaded Review…
If you have a chance to see Matrix Reloaded on a huge IMAX screen, I highly recommend doing it. The sound was incredible, the movie was huge, it was all I expected and more. Most excellent!
I’ve discovered something rather interesting this past week. As I’ve been more of a social butterfly than [...]
Matrix Monday!
Know what today is? It’s Matrix Monday! Why? Because at 7:05pm CST today, I will be sitting at the Edwards Marq*E Cinema here in Houston, enjoying The Matrix Reloaded on the IMAX Screen. 8 stories tall. Whoa… Party on, dude!
(Oh, come on, admit it. You think [...]
Gimme, Gimme, Gimme…
Tired of shamelessly begging for help? Willing to give for the code that you receive? Need something? Head on over to BlogBarter and start trading! [via Donna]
Hot Date…
Kathy headed up north tonight and we went out for dinner and then over to see “Finding Nemo”. I don’t think I’ve been to a “kid’s movie” without Jason since he was born. It was really cute – I’m glad I went to see it. I’m even more glad that I got [...]
Maybe It’s Just Me…
Maybe it’s just me, but I think that Dave Winer needs to read Natalie’s post from earlier this week. Then Dave needs to get a grip on reality.
I’ve had a blog in one form or another since 1999. I started writing regularly in 2000. I have never read Scripting News on a [...]
Just a Thought…
“Don’t frown. You don’t know who’s falling in love with your smile.”

All About the Free!
Pssst… head on over to Shawn’s place. Be sure to check out this post for the secret code. Tell her that Christine sent you. Shhhh…
All is Good…
Lunch with Chelsey at Pappa’s Barbeque. (BBQ Sandwich, not a cheese sandwich.) The sky is finally going from grey to blue. My skyline is sparkling again. I’ve found helpful information in this interview with Jeffrey Zeldman that will help me explain web standards to the boss. All is good in [...]
So Much to Do…
Wow – there is so much going on right now I seem to have nothing to say. Jason left Wednesday morning with my parents for a road trip across the country, and I’ve been taking advantage of the down time. They are driving from Houston to Minnesota, over to North Dakota, down to [...]
All Fixed Up!
Mad props to Kevin who worked code foo magic on my CSS file and fixed it so the sidebar displays correctly now on the new grey skin (and the alternate photo-free skin) for IE 6 users. I have to pick through the code still to see what he did to fix it, but for [...]
Just What the Doctor Ordered…
In case you were wondering, last night was exactly what I needed. No, my problems didn’t magically disappear – they were still there when I woke up this morning – but I felt a lot better about them, and I have ideas on how to deal with some of the issues now. In [...]
The Time Has Come…
I’m leaving the office and heading to the Cantina to meet up with Syd. Oh, I didn’t think it would ever be time. Don’t you hate that feeling? When you’re watching the clock so you can go do something you’re really looking forward to? I spent my whole day like that [...]
Today.
Headache. Sinus pain. Hormonal. Moody. Stressed. Tired. Quiet. Sore. Grinding my teeth. Sad. Worried. Busy.
Seriously looking forward to girl time with Sydney tonight over margaritas, chips and queso at the Cantina.
RSS – You Know What It Is, Right?
Blogdaddy has written a really interesting post about the ongoing debate over using RSS feeds to read personal blogs. (Not to be confused with the current programmer debates over RSS in general, but I won’t go there.) Is something lost in the translation when you use newsfeeds to read blogs? I don’t [...]
The Sound of Silence…
First I started to wonder why I wasn’t getting any e-mail messages. I knew that tickets had come in to the Blogomania helpdesk, and I’m normally notified of them. Plus I had sent out a PayPal refund, I should have a payment receipt. Wow, no e-mails for two hours? Not even [...]
Smurf Stuff? Really?
I guess I had better watch what I write about here, because it seems that Google AdSense thinks that it should serve up the following ads for my site based on my content:
:: ComputerGear: Fun computer key caps, panic button and computer-nerd-silly stuff here!
:: Incredible Hulk tees: Big Face and Green torso shirts. Youth and [...]
Don’t be a Hog!
If I am going to go to the gym, there are some things we need to discuss. These are primarily for the benefit of the two chicky-poos that were at my gym last night. No, they will probably never read this, but it will make me feel better anyways.
Lift slowly and lower slowly [...]
Stuck in the Middle…
I am literally in the middle of a split sky. On the left, it is blue and sunny with pretty white puffy clouds. On the right, it is storming, gray clouds with thunder.
Why is it that I feel like this is some strange metaphor for my life right now? There is no [...]
I Hate CSS!
GAH!!! Two of the new skins (with photo and without) work just fine in IE 5.5 and Phoenix. No problems at all. But somewhere in my tweaking, I’ve broken something – and now they aren’t working right in IE 6. The sidebar is at the bottom. Have I mentioned before [...]
Monday, Monday…
Is it Monday already? Do we have to go back to work? Really? *sigh* Ok, fine. Whatever.
