Month: August 2002

I love looking at my web stats in the morning and seeing them predict a busy day. I love busy days. I want to have 250+ people a day visit the blog or the dump, but instead I’ve been averaging 50 or so on each. That’s still nothing to sneeze at, considering I have no naked pictures to share. And throwing a few .mp3s of me singing popular songs is NOT going to improve traffic.

But today should be busy, because the email notification that the dump has been updated went out. Right now I’m expecting 100 hungry customers, so I’m going to go start the tapioca pudding. Gotta have snacks.

The New Dump is up and running.

I ended up being busier yesterday than anticipated, so I didn’t actually remember to finish updating the dump. Bad Jody!

I did pick up a book I’d been looking for, but didn’t decide if I should bother with the screenwriting software or not. I wish it was just downloadable. I think I’d be faster about it if I could use it 15 minutes from not, rather than having to wait for it to be shipped. I did poke around some store websites and it’s not something you can just buy at Staples.

Did I mention I bought a coffee table for $77 yesterday? It’s worth WAY more than that, but I was at a scratch and dent/warehouse sale and scooped it up, cash and carry. I’m so happy! I haven’t had a coffee table in here since junior was born.

In the store here at work they sell sunflower seeds. But not the kind I expect to buy (roasted and salted out of the shell). They sell the in-the-shell kind. Okay, we’re in an office building, not a dugout. I can’t just spit all these shells on the floor. Actually yesterday I noticed that they finally got the “good” kind on the shelf. Whew. Crisis averted.

[added later] Ooh, hey, if you accidently drop some on the floor you may as well be in a dugout.
