Weird Al

No, I'm not a closet Weird Al fan. I AM a Weird Al fan. I went to his concert 2 or 3 years in a row. I miss those days.

Wasting time on 'Best Week Ever' today, I surfed into a site where someone listed their top 10 favorite Al videos. That led me to the realization that even though I knew some of these songs rather well, I had never seen some of the videos. White & Nerdy is still my favorite, but there are some other great videos.

Assuming Al does a tour for 'Straight Outta Lynwood', PUNK, we are SO going!

Holidays

I hate the holidays. That's no big surprise. It seems like it gets harder every year. People don't get it. Holidays are for kids. Guess what. I don't have any. And, I'm definitely not a kid. I don't have parents. So holidays are just damn depressing. I find it an unnecessary chore to put up the stupid tree. I didn't bother this year. We put up a couple strands of icicle lights outside, but there are a lot of dead bulbs and one section died all together. Hope someday I'll get back into the holidays, it used to be fun.

I think I got it to work...

Ok, looks like I may have had some luck in the blogging department. I love Firefox. And I love geeks who make extremely useful extensions for Firefox. I now have an editor right in my browser which I can use to dual post to my blog and to Myspace.

It wasn't completely painless - I had to change my blog over to WordPress because Sblog isn't supported by this extension. That's something that I was going to have to do at some point anyway. The transfer/import was rough in a few places but I think I cleaned it up as much as I needed to. Only trouble is that my comments didn't transfer. And if you comment my blog or myspace, it'll only be at one place.

Main blog is now located at... http://www.geminidreamz.com/wordpress.

Even though I'm not having the best week in life in general, I'm having a great week as a geek.

On a side note, I found a really kickass service called goosync which will sync my PDA calendar with my Google calendar. Woohoo!!! No more Outlook!!!

Not a happy Mary

As it turns out, the doctors office doesn't own the equipment - it gets brought in 1 day a month to do surgeries and they wont do it for less than 3 patients cuz it's a whole ordeal to set up and tear down... and a couple people canceled so that made me the only patient for Monday.

So, 6 more weeks. It's not even the waiting that pisses me off so much... it's the fact that I have suffered in glasses for two weeks only to have to start all over again next month. I don't see well out of my glasses. I have no peripheral vision. The glare is atrocious at night.

That's life I guess. Or at least that's my life.

Update: Come to find out that one of Dan's sisters is pregnant. Isn't that the icing on the fucking cake.

Mondays

The only good thing about Mondays is TV. There's only two days a week that it's even worth turning the TV on. That would be Mondays and Thursdays.
