it *is* sunday, right?

potd-2007-11-11

 so i’m feeling kind of disoriented today.  i finished my last web site on friday, which was a half day since i was on call last week.  i deliberately did not ask for another project because by the time the site was approved it was close to 5pm and i didn’t think i’d be able to call another client before the end of the business day so i’d probably just be sitting on it all weekend, and i thought it would be nice to have a weekend.  so now, on this fabulous weekend i constructed, i keep checking my email, doing things on the computer for no apparent reason and generally waiting.  why am i waiting?  i have no idea.  it’s like i’m waiting for something to happen but nothing will because there’s nothing pending.  so the first real weekend in which i don’t really have anything to do, i’m too busy expecting to have to do something to just sit back and chill, like the intent was.  grrrr…

i’m gonna start making more interesting and descriptive tags.  because, you know, that’s fun.

i found some sesame street stuff to download before demonoid went down, the old school stuff, which gavin seems to like.  we read an article that was about stuff we already were starting to think in which the fast-paced and more violent (or at least depicting violence as funny, like the bop the guy over the head and laugh type stuff) kids programming is bad for attention stuff, so…sesame street and baby einstein and lots of other stuff like that it is.  it’s weird watching sesame street and it’s weird watching gavin get into this stuff that we both watched as kids, and occasionally some of the songs are so surreal and post-modern that it’s hilarious (like the crosby, stills, nash, and young-worthy “I Live in a Capital I” which has harmonies and minor chords like “A Horse With No Name.”)

there’s some new pics i took today in the gallery and i uploaded some pics of us (and the same gavin pics) to flickr, cuz i decided it was time that there was at least some pictures of, you know, us.  on our flickr account. also, i did some updates to the forums, and since wordpress isn’t the best for having an actual conversation i encourage everyone (if anyone is listening) to head over there if ya wanna hang out in a virtual sense.

    I feel that way when I am not in school. Do you have any good kids's games? I am thinking of loading a PC up for my niece when I go down for thanksgiving.
