Cleaning gutters, Moody Monkey, The Washing Machine, Munch
It’s Caligula’s 6 month “birthday” today. We gave him some kitty milk this morning to celebrate. I hope he enjoyed it all, tomorrow he goes in to be neutered. Michael cleaned the gutters yesterday, I helped a little by holding the ladder and bringing the hose around. The gutters had these “gutter guards” which we […]
Feeling a bit better, gmail, phillychix photo
My head is feeling a bit better this morning. It’s just a dull ache as long as I’m sitting still, hurts when I squint or yawn or cough, or do other things to move the muscles around it. Michael picked up some antibiotic gel that contains some pain reliever, so I’m sure that’s doing a […]
I got 7 stitches just above my left eyebrow last night.
The short story: It was late, the bathroom floor was wet, I slipped and hit my head on the bathroom floor. the long story: Our new fish wasn’t doing so well, so after getting home from the philly chix meeting Michael decided to change a bunch of the water in the tank (maybe we had […]
New fish! And playing with litestep and gimp in Windows.
We picked up a bunch of fish supplies the other day while we were at the pet store. Some stuff to make the tap water safe for fishes, some other stuff, and a testing kit to test all sorts of chemical and ph levels in the water. So last night the water was looking good […]
New princessleia.com design! Phones, vets and speaking “tech” rather than english
After a couple friends decided to redo their own websites, I took a nice long look at princessleia.com and decided to take another stab at redesigning it. I pretty much scraped my entire old design. Since the site started out as a php nuke site (late 2001 as princessleia2.com)) the design kept being a morphed […]
Rediscovering love for RPGs via Kingdom Hearts
I started playing Kingdom Hearts last night ( let me borrow it last weekend). And I must say, wow! Before Kingdom Hearts was released, a close friend of mine was always sending me screenshots and I got pretty excited about it. Then I picked up Final Fantasy X, because I loved Final Fantasy games, they […]
nes emus, messy ~, fishes
I started playing around with NES emulators again the other day. The last time I did it was probably over a year ago, and I was using debian stable versions so I never found one that was good AND had sound. I was looking through portage though, and discovered TusNES which has been working pretty […]
getting digital camera working in linux, caligula’s bath and rss feed.
Well I’d say that today was one of my most productive computer days in a while. I’ve been so caught up on spring cleaning and other projects lately. It feels really good. Michael left me an email this morning telling me that he got the camera working in linux. Well damn, I really had meant […]
Room painted, potato salad made… other things.
On Memorial day we finally got that bedroom painted. Yay! There are still some touchups that need to be done, but I’m already amazed at how great it looks. We’re not entirely sure whether we’ll make that into our bedroom again, and now that I know how great a room can look after being painted […]
