Edit: Yep, still working on it. I think it just needs a busier background. I’ll work on it in a bit.
New layout colors. Coupla tweaks. Enjoy the whitespace. Not sure about the colors, feedback very welcome.
My brain hurts. Dentist at 7am tomorrow. More to tell, maybe tomorrow. [...]

What’s good about this is that nothing needs to be refridgerated!
Ingredients:
1 pkg Ramen, oriental or chicken flavor (Smack was what I used)
1 medium tomato, diced up
~1 table spoon of soy sauce
garlic and chili powder to taste, about a 1:2 ratio is good here
Cook the ramen normally, but in the last minute of cooking add the [...]

Still not sure about the colors, ect. Especially of the background. Feedback welcome.
One thing I really like happening is when I am asked about my day by people I like. It never quite happens, though. I ask about their days, but the conversation never gets around to what my day has [...]

This 4th of July was better than the last, at least. Last 4th I watched a movie with a rather annoying kid from band b/c all my good friends were in Australia.
This 4th, though, was a bit different. I went to a network party, but didn’t bring my computer, for two [...]

I just turned off the light to get ready for bed and it’s almost as bright in here with it off! I’m going to bed and it’s 6am! What’s wrong with me!? Silly need I have to talk to people in different time zones…

I went reading through my old journal entries last night. They all seem so unhappy. Ryan says this is because I was unhappy. I feel better now, but not by much.
I never see anyone during the week, since most of my friends have jobs which cause them to not want [...]

Paul called me this afternoon. I was about to say morning, as he woke me up, but it was about 2.30pm. :-) Anyway, he’s in Little Rock, getting ready to have some more audial (should be auditory I think, but he said that one) reconstruction stuff done. He won’t be back until [...]

“no offense, but most of your emotions we’ve gone through anyway. Sometimes I just avoid trite topics.”
Today was actually going pretty well. I talked to Paul again and his surgery is the 21st, so he’ll be around for a while to do fun stuff. I went over to David’s for a while. [...]

I started volunteering at the pharmacy in the hospital today. Also, I don’t have TB! Woo! (They make you get tested to work at the hospital.)
Been listening to a ton of Train lately. The Drops of Jupiter album specifically. Even more specifically the songs Something More and Getaway.
Tired, sorta, so bed now. [...]

I have lost internect access for unknown reasons!
I have fled to the library to use their internet connection!
I wish I knew when I would be back on. Well, more than the limit of an hour a day at the computer.
Today I had a pretty good day at the pharmacy. I put together a [...]

Edit: I figured out the Audigy/WinME/DOS problem. I love Google. :-)
Today Paul and I went to see David at college. It was only about an hour:45 to see him, so it wasn’t too bad a drive at all. I’ve been itching to drive on the highway for a long time now. [...]

Today (sorta, the 25th) was my birthday!
It started out with a very freaked out Ryan wanting to talk around 12.30am. He’s having illusions. Again. It is worrying. I stayed up with him until I couldn’t stay awake any longer.
I dragged myself into the pharmacy about 9.30 am. There wasn’t a [...]

Finally got around to installing WinXP.
It’s an annoying little OS. It won’t let me make taskbar smaller than a certain size. I have the taskbar on the right side of the screen to minimize wrist problems. I’m running at 1280×1024 for most stuff anyway, so it’s not much of a problem, [...]
