Relationships
I asked a friend a question today:
is it worth it to stay in a relationship with someone for the sake of the other person?
And by asking that question, I had explained my situation, my feelings for the other person, their feelings towards me, my feelings towards the relationship, and their feelings towards the relationship. I explained the secrecy of the matter, my outward ambitions, and my...

Time Out
I remember a time when i was very young that i was sent to my room to be in time-out. I fell asleep on my bed. Hours later, I woke up and came downstairs, completely oblivious to the fact that I was ever being punished or that I had done something wrong. My mom gave me a stern look and asked, “Well? Are you sorry for what you’ve done?” I was unsure of what she meant. It took me...

Facebook "Interested In"
I want to know why people don’t fill in their Interested In field on Facebook. My friend and I have found that there is an absurdly high number of Facebook users (both male and female) that do not fill in this field. The cause is not immediately apparent.
If anyone has any insight into this, please let me know! blog@serverboy.net

Peanut butter eyes
When I was young, many of my dreams were (by my standards now) quite weird. One recurring element was my inability to “see” in my dreams because there was a mess load of stuff in my eyes. Not that it hurt, it was just difficult to see and there was “resistance” to my eye movements. The best way I could describe it is if you had peanut butter (smooth, not chunky) in your...

Featured
Just wanted to let everyone know that my work has been featured on the Widgetbox blog! Quite exciting. I just hope now that GoDaddy doesn’t kill me for bandwidth hoggage.

I hate Firefox 3.
Yes. I don’t care what the rest of you think. I don’t care if you think that Mozilla knows best. I think they have fudged up their interface even worse than… well they haven’t really fudged anything else this badly. So my first complaint is the back button. Why is it such a big honking button?! And the forward button is like a broken trapezoid. Isn’t there a UI...
Muxtape
I’ve recently become an avid Muxtape user. The primary reason is that it’s so darn convenient. I’m also a Last.fm user, so let’s compare the two: Muxtape: Visit homepage > Click a user > Click a song Last.fm: Visit homepage > Login > Click Listen > Click a station > Click Play Clearly, Last.fm is much more inconvient. It has at least five extra clicks and...

Live Mesh
I’ve just finished up testing Windows Live Mesh. It certainly has surpassed my expectations tenfold. In fact, I’ll probably start using it at work to get stuff done when I’m not going to be in.
I’ve also figured out what the difference between the file syncing in Mesh and Foldershare is. Foldershare requires both machines to be on and connected to the net. Mesh uses an...
Really depressed.
I was just going through, making pages for the school’s website and put in a page for “Girls’ Soccer”. I remembered only one person ever to be on the girls’ soccer team (that I knew of) and that was Erin Hannigan. She was in my kindergarten and first grade (and possibly second grade) classes.
She was a really nice person. Normally, I wouldn’t be so upset,...
Nervous
I’m really starting to get nervous about the outcome of the primary here in PA. Hopefully, it will be a favorable result.
Adobe Air
I’m on an Adobe Air kick right now. It’s pretty cool. The only problem is that I can’t decide which Twitter app I want to use. I’m stuck between Twhirl and Tweetr.
Surprised
I’m really surprised at how much I like Tumblr. It’s fast, simple, and has a great design. After ditching WordPress for my personal blog, I thought I’d never have a blog again. Now, I can see that I was wrong and will be writing here for quite a while. :)
