cycle of life

8:30am Wednesday 17 November 1999

I think tomorrow is Tammy's birthday... hmmm.

Yesterday was my KTRU day!  I had great fun at the station, and even
recorded the show.. but it wasn't as incredible of a show as, say,
last week's.  Dasscool though; still great fun.  Oh!  And I got to
give away movie passes to two different movies and as I wrote the
winners' names down on the list, I noticed the name of my friend
Carsley!  Woah!!  So I called her (I'm sure that's a violation of some
law - using the KTRU information for personal purposes) and left a
message on her machine!  (She called me back later in the evening and
we chatted about work and stuff; it was great to connect with an old
friend!)

After KTRU, I grabbed lunch then picked up Madeline and drove to Ares
Robotics, where Richard, Dion, Madeline and I brainstormed ideas for
the Techno Cosmic Mass coming December 9 to George R Brown!  My
project is to create an altar to water; and I have a pretty good idea
in my brain of what I want to do; I just need to get my ass in gear!

Dropped M back off at school then I went home and took a delightful
nap.  I just love a nice afternoon break like that.  Turned the phones
off and everything.

Woke up; worked on website stuff (Rebecca's Indigo Angel site (which
will be at http://www.indigoangel.com soon but) for now is at 
indigoangel.cjb.net) and email and then Rebecca called!

She answered a question I had about her site and then I asked her a
couple questions about my life and stuff (she's a professional psychic
and has a pretty good sense of my dynamics) and she spouted a
delightful bounty of Astro Babble (so she calls it) the I greatly
appreciated!  Like when my energy is low (emotional, spiritual energy)
I tend to seek out others for attention and approval and lovin'
instead of re-energizing and nurturing myself through sleep
maybe or eating or play or whatever.  hmmm..  The seems so basic now
that I'm saying it, but I found it hugely beneficial last night.  
Thank you, Rebecca!

It was late; I was tired so I went to bed, heeding my internal signals
instead of forging ahead with "gotta get my website done!!"

This morning I woke up refreshedly happy and moved 3 months worth of
geocities site over to here!

Going to work now.

OH WAIT!!

I forgot something and remembered when I saw the name of this entry!

A few minutes ago, I could hear Spot flippin' and floppin' around in
my bedroom.  Spot is normally a friendly and happy cat, but is
normally too cool to flip and flop around.  I went in and found
several small feathers and Spot's new toy.  He grabbed the bird and
ran under my bed.

I thought, ug - I don't want to chase you, Spot. and he ran
back out!

Yay! He dropped the bird and I gently grabbed Spot by the scruff (I
love that cat-handle) and said "good job, Spot, but keep it outside."

Thought about tossing the bird out the window, but had visions of Spot
retrieving it.  No.  So I ceremoniously flushed it with a gentle
prayer to the bird, "thank you bird, for participating in the cycle of
life."

FUULUUUSHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

Scrapped!

Well, archived.  It looks like my project that I've worked 2.5 weeks
on at work will be shelved until it may be needed again.  Mine used
JavaScript and HTML to store data on a users local machine while
offline and then allow them to submit the data to us when they were
back online again.

The biggest concerns were the wide variety of browsers and screen
sizes made the look-n-feel too varied across thousands of users.  I'm
cool with dat.

One "good" thing for me is that I get to move on to a different
project.  I like moving on to different projects; it's what I've done
all my life!

So now I'm looking for a unix daemon that will watch for email to a
certain address and strip attachments from the email to a certain
directory.

I wonder if I could just do it with pine???
