STATE OF MY LIFE

1. Today begins San Antonio Rally. From previous experience, I know if I don't write before the rally about stuff that happened before the rally, it probably won't be written
2. This past week, Manda and I saw the movie ORGAZMO, the new Trey Parker film. There were 5 people in the theater, including us, and we had free passes to get in. It was pretty funny in that Southpark kinda way, but I'm pretty glad I didn't pay for it.
3. That night she spent the night and we spent just about the whole next day in bed. Okay, maybe the movie did have some merit.
4. D'oh! but I missed an appointment for a general physical exam that I decided to do just to do it before I go to Costa Rica.
5. In the early part of the week, I was feeling pretty crappy in general, unproductive, that kind of thing. Scott (my car) went to the doctor on Tuesday and was feeling better $240 later.
6. I signed the paperwork to get MR Labs advertised on the back of the receipt tape at two Krogers near my house! A friend of mine pointed out that advertising there would not be his suggestion; he wouldn't look for professional website design on the back of register tape, and I almost didn't do it, but when I thought about it later, it just felt like the right decision. We'll see what happens. They don't go out until January 1999.
7. Last night Wende and Eric and I went to see ORGAZMO. We had two free passes, and figured we could pay for 1 between us, but ironically, Eric and I left the pass at my apartment and he just paid for all of us.
8. I've been chatting in the Sauna on www.wbs.net, an online chat thing. My character is Thunder Rabbit, who likes to jump on the trampoline in there and play Chickenball.
9. Matt and Nathan are here chillin' until the rally. They just came in from New Orleans by bus.
10. Oh! In the latter part of this week, I felt much happier and more productive when I figured out how to do stuff with cookies and forms and JavaScript! I was able to make a couple of pages that set cookies and remember a user's name and what color they chose. If you want to see them, ask me, and I'll give you the URL. (2003 July: they're long gone; don't ask)
11. I spent some time updating the /images directory of the Southwest District YRUU website. Nothing amazing; I didn't add any content, but just organized the pictures into directories and stuff.
12. Part of me thinks, "wow; what a boring week" but I'm still having fun.
