Katharine was taking care of my cats while I was in Salt Lake City in Oct 2006 and, in a fit of boredom before she had to go to work, decided to organize my DVDs and VHS tapes.
All I had to do was travel 900 miles to get this done!
I only have, what, maybe 30 or 40 DVDs in total, but in six months I’ve done nothing to organize them. I guess that’s mainly because I rarely have any trouble finding the particular DVD I want at a given moment.
If I had enough titles that finding a single disc was a problem, I’d be all over the organizing.
Obviously I need more DVDs to spur me into organizing my collection!
Then yes, my SUV’s now been off-road.
I had to drive around a construction site the other day. Drove through about 150 yards of unpaved shoulder and the land off the road to get around the construction vehicles and barricades. Did a bit of bouncing, a little spinning of the wheels, nothing spectacular.
Ended up quite a bit like my previous design, just with different colors and typefaces and similar small details. For the moment, however, I’ve stopped tweaking it.
Started off a template set provided by my hosted service, now I can fiddle with the CSS and templates and keywords and fun things of that type to achieve exactly the look I want.
Or I can leave it the way it is and bitch about how I never finished designing it…. hrm.
Well, I’ve tried out two designs on my site in the last few days, both built from TypePad’s built-in design library and its custom-CSS and other design features. I may convert one or both to their advanced-template system and fiddle with the designs a bit more but for now I’m content to try several other radically different look-and-feel combinations over the next few months until I find one I like.
That also gives me time to futz with learning CSS and other design handiness in the interim, the better to unleash an amazing design in the future.
bwahahahaha.
So I’d like to open a restaurant or work in one and put to practice the things I like about restaurant service, and stamp out the things I dislike.
No more “you guys” and absolutely no “do you need change?” from the servers.
I’m a service-oriented person and if the restaurant was the right type, I can see myself liking the work more than anything else I’ve done.

So the Ford Escape I got in June 2005 would probably hold its own in the off-road experiences I can see myself having—mainly driving down unpaved, rocky, rutted roads in backcountry areas that still have cell-phone service—but I’ve yet to take it off-road at all. Unless I cound the gravel and dirt roads I drove on Lopez Island in the San Juans in August, but those were weenie roads and we were only about half a mile off the paved highway.
Anyone have recommendations on a good place to start the off-road experience?
