The Trees

In general, nature, photography on 31 January 2007 with 1 comment

In preparation for all new landscaping, all of the trees around the apartment have been removed during the past few days.  Though it really changes the local disc golf course dynamic, the lack of trees makes everything appear pretty barren when looking out the front window.

Spring Semester: Week 1

In general on 10 January 2007 with 1 comment

My external harddrive, loaded with music, crashed to a horrible death this morning. In the past two years I’ve had three enormous external drive failures. Not the best way to start off the new year, nor what I had in mind with a “fresh start.”

I’ve decided to go with a new hosted blog.  I’ll be integrating shizaam into teabyrd.

Thanksgiving 2006

In general on 26 November 2006 with 1 comment

After 5.5 hours in the trusty Volvo, I finally made it to the beach on Wednesday afternoon.  It was great to meet up with the family for a couple days.  Thanksgiving dinner was one of the best in recent memory, and I’m sure I ate my body weight in stuffing.

I’m thinking about upgrading to a hosted site to incorporate the shizaam blog, this one, and the mp3blog.  Any suggestions for names (www.insertnamehere.com)?

New theme

In general on 11 October 2006 with 2 comments

I’m trying out the new unsleepable theme.  I was never really satisfied with the old one, and this has a nice simplicity.  I don’t know how much of a fan I am of the date formatting, but I might get used to it.  Comments, reactions?

Tonight was my first swim in a week:
15 minute warmup
10×125s on 2:20
20×25s on :35/:30/:25/:20

naming

I’m no longer in England, and it definitely isn’t Summer 2006.  The blog name/layout might be due for a change sometime soon.

Sunday morning

In academics, general on 24 September 2006 with no comments

After a long wait for breakfast, I’ve spent the morning doing design work for my New Media class. I’m not too happy with the font and header design yet, but hopefully I’ll be able to get everything worked out soon. Work all day, then I’ve got to get psyched up for what is […]
