Wednesday night
Jun. 12th, 2002 11:33 pmToday has been long and productive. Mostly. I didn't do much in the morning, really. But the afternoon was busy.
I worked on the new company site most all day. It's really near done.. what I'm working on now is writing (rewriting) content to make it sound more... real. We've decided that we're either going to work at it this time (and actually try to market it, which we've never really gotten around to) or we're going to stop spending time and money on it. So. Fresh start.
I used the flat screen all day today, and it was driving me crazy so I went back to my old monitor just a few minutes ago. It's flickering still, but who cares? I can't do any of my *things* with the flat-screen. Colors are wrong, text is shifty and grainy. I also had to work at a smaller resolution, which sucked. (*grin* I was at 1024 x 768 and I felt like I was at 640 x 480). My normal is 1152 x 864. So I'm happier. I've also decided that the flickering is not anything wrong with my computer but outside interference. I'll attempt to solve that.. later. Now I'm just happy to have my monitor back and for things to look the way they're supposed to.
I signed up for our new host today. That's always exciting. But I'll have to do the email address change thing again. I hate that. I still wish I had my mis.net address. I think it'd be neat if they gave it back to me for free. :) On the other hand, by the time I stopped using it, I got much more spam than anything else.
We got a mail today from a friend, and included was one of the least flattering pictures of me in existence. We were obviously not aware we were being photographed, and I was walking.. or something. It was truly dreadful. It's times like this when I wish I had a remote delete button for everyone else's computers. I wouldn't use it maliciously! Just for really bad pictures of me, that sort of thing!
I keep thinking I should find a good newsgroup to follow and I never do. I'm also in the market for relevant mailing lists. I'm not sure why. I rarely post on things like that. Speaking of.. nothing. Last night I dreamed that Magnus woke me up because he was really excited about hosting. And then he made me walk down to the local webhosting company to give them our website. (For all of you who know nothing about web hosting.. this is HIGHLY unlikely, to put it mildly.) This was almost a mile down the road, and it was cold (winter) and also not yet seven a.m. and I knew they were obviously not open yet. But he made me go, which I didn't think was nice. So when I got there and saw they weren't, as expected, open, I tried to call him to come get me, but he had turned his phone off. That was mean. :( I told him this when he came in to tell me he was leaving for work, and he just laughed at me and told me to roll over, so I called him a bossy head. *giggle* I'm not generally in the best of moods when i first wake up...
You know how sometimes you wake up mad at someone for something they did in your dream? I have a reverse issue with that. Magnus gets annoyed with me for the things he does in my dreams. *giggle* I can't help it! I'm just an avid dreamer!
Oh well. I think perhaps I'm ready to go to bed, maybe even read for a few minutes. If I hurry.. I think Hubby boy is about to go to bed too. Night!
