Vacation is over and I got through my first day of work. Nothing like spending the day deleting multiple "Nigerian Money Scam" messages. I swear that most of my email was this type of drek. No wonder I can't get anything done - I'm too busy deleting email!

There's something wrong with the links on the left. Maybe I'll fix it this weekend. Maybe not. Right now I'm a bit burned out due to my failure to come up with something cool during my vacation.

The regular darts season starts tonight. Let's hope that we aren't severly overclassed - like we were in the summer league.

I feel so humbled now. I couldn't get a single working idea for this web page redesign. I am so out of practice. It looks like I'll be stuck with this for awhile longer. Oh well. I'll keep plugging away, but there won't be any new look for some time.

Back to the drawing board ... Again.. Things were coming along and I was really liking what I saw - and then I realized that it was looking just like boing boing and I'd rather not become a copycat. Maybe I'll have something new for you to look at this week, maybe not.

More testing, please excuse the dust... I won't out up anymore testing, not testing things until I'm done. I hope.

Well, that failed fabulously. Back to the drawing board...

Testing.. Please ignore the mess.

There is a conspiracy among us. There is an evil plot to replace humans as the dominant life form on this planet! Brace yourselves... Its the giraffes!

OK, OK, maybe they aren't going to replace humans, but while shopping in Omaha today - they were everywhere! I don't think Julie & I went into a store that didn't have some sort of giraffe related item. Almost made me think I was out on safari.

On another note: Happy Birthday Julie! Love ya lots - ya kid.

Let's hear it for vacation!!! Yippiee! Time to finally get some other stuff (read: stuff besides Windows 2000 Migration planning) done. Some web redesign, some comic book reading, some computer game playing ... just a little bit of everything. I know Julie will want me to clean the place a bit. Fair enough. Time to catch up on some reading. Later EmFusers!

In the category of "Don't you hate it when..."

I was tossing and turning all night, couldn't get comfortable. I tried a glass of water, a glass of milk, fluffing the pillows, adjusting the temperature, etc. etc. I tried just about everything. And then the second, the very second, I got comfortable ... bzzz bzzz bzzz bzzz - the alarm goes off. ERF!

Oh well, at least I know that tomorrow is my last day of work this week. Vacation time is here!! Yippie!

Yesterday,campus seems to have been hit by random acts of art. All over the western side of campus there were temporary pieces of abstract art. I wish I had a camera to show you some of them. A large concrete slab was turned into a bed. Metal strips with dangly things attached were placed in tree branches. I wonder how long these pieces last.

BTW: Sis is fine and back at home. Thanks for asking.

I'm a bit tired today. Maybe its because I spent most of the night at the hospital? My sister, Crystal, went there on an ambulance around 6:00 or so. I went in about 6:30 and stayed there until 1:30 am except for a quick run home while she was in surgery around midnight. I'm not going to go into any the details, but she was a lot better when we left. I'll be going back later this morning, but I'm sure she's fine now.
