okay, I'll concede that this is too many books to travel with, but it's too late to unpack them now!

forgot about the 9pm cutoff for getting into the storage facility; this complicates things a bit!

packing up the house is so much easier when you don't have any other obligations to meet that interfere with it!

working on my telekinesis so that I can finish packing without getting up...

definitely trimming down on what I originally thought of as "essential" and realizing just how many clothes I have...

done packing? No. Taking a break? Yes. Washer and dryer and ferret cage left to go. Weasels washed and ready to ride...

getting my last jackhammer sendoff and wishing Brushy Creek Regional Utility Authority a trip to hell...

getting ready to drive the dogs all back out to the old property before enjoying our first quiet night in months...

thirty minute standby until construction noise ceases for the day...

thank you, Safari 4 update, for killing iTunes when I need it most...

finally turned off my desktop to keep the failing PSU fan from driving me insane; now back to construction noise...

pinballing around the house, between the construction noise, the PSU noise, hunger and no motivation to pack...

fantasizing about all the code I'll be able to write after I move away from all the noise...

laptops are too big for kids. make it One-iPad-Per-Child FTW! If ever there was a device that screems "my first computer"...

construction begins like a damned alarm clock at 7:30am prompt; two more days of this fucking jackhammer...

too late to move any more, nobody home to hang out with on a Monday, and no projects on fire...

recording video on the Droid works out pretty well; uploading to YouTube from it, not always so much...

THREE MORE DAYS AND NO MORE JACKHAMMER!!!

nothing quite like a jackhammer to motivate you to finish packing and move out...

composing a play called "The Jackhammer Monologues" in my head...

camera on the Droid was being cooperative; uploading some fresh jackhammering videos...

discovered nine unique individual dress socks after doing all my laundry; I think they are breeding...

off all the fans to start going out, the PSU was not one I saw coming...

fantasizing about a website to help provide interventions for those who are considering joining the military...

most of the files for Windows never get used, but it has the audacity to point at my desktop icons for cleanup?

no energy to move anything else to storage, but still a few hours before the construction noise stops for the day...

so if you are trying to make your webpage stretch 100% of the browser height, the new trick is to set html at 101%!!!

taking a moment to enjoy the tranquil calm of having a minimal workload for the day...

wish I could upgrade from a storage unit to a full blown cargo container that I could outfit as a private little retreat...

brain hurts; three active projects to work on every day is exhausting...

committing a fix to Xarpages to the monotone repository for Xaraya...

using my remote control module to update a copy of itself...

wondering what a fruit smoothie what taste like if made with cola...

working like a dog for the past two days, no time to get anything more moved into storage...

reminiscing with Rikky about rolling into BlueClover with hot tamales for breakfast in the morning...

wondering how much it would cost to buy Tacos.com and turn it into a portal for cheap mexican restaraunts...

stuck in "I'll get right on that..." mode while I wait for Saucelabs to produce a log file...

forgot what I was doing for a minute until I glanced back at the screen and saw all this Selenium crap waiting to finish...

I swear there is a goblin that sneaks in and drinks my coffee for me; I don't remember drinking it all...

noticing that Mozy has finished backing up my laptop...

preparing to head out back for another attempt at filming construction, hopefully w/o interrupting calls or forced close...

wondering how long it will take Wendy to make it out of the bermuda triangle of Victoria, TX...

untangling the dogs after getting a chuckle from watching them struggle with being stuck to a tree...

there are more interesting things than having to put together a lingerie website, but I can't think of them at the moment...

not sure how these ribs are going to taste but they are finally done cooking!!!

two and a half hours to bake ribs?!? I really should have started them about two hours ago then...

wishing someone else from the Xaraya crew was around to brainstorm with...

setting the Notepad++ autosave interval to something other than zero seconds after some shenanigans when I try typing w/o saving...

should have realized that with no mail on Sunday there would be no more new boxes available at the bookstore...

after enduring a particularly bad segment of the day, best options are either a bath or a bowel movement, to reboot your mood...

deciding after a little bit of tinkering that design can be mathematically synthesized without much trouble...

going to stop clicking "random theme" long enough to figure out Kate's timezone issue...

doing an end-run on some image cross-linking protection, but for a good cause...

waiting for a message saying "Please wait while Mozy chokes on tremendous pile of data you managed to get on this laptop..."

disappointed that my phone was not actually recording video throughout that whole monologue I just gave in the car...

leaving plans to set up my own IVR on the backburner...

would like to congratulate Shatner on his new JOOMLA website and all of the predictable problems that came with it...

defined Inductive reasoning on Ivory-Tower: Involves moving from a set of specific facts to a general conclusion. It can also be seen as a form of theory-building, in which specific facts are used to create a theory that explains relationships between the facts and allows prediction of future knowledge. Induction is used to ascribe properties or relations to types based on an observation instance (i.e., on a number of observations or experiences); or to formulate laws based on limited observations of recurring phenomenal patterns.

my only regret is that I have nothing more to give to my projects tonight; time for some R&R!!!

considering how I might "stone soup" my way through hostels with my espresso machine...

relieved to hear from CrispCreations that Xaraya 2x relies on PHP's datetime handling, so I won't have to worry about it anymore...

discovering that my new dash mount actually DOES bend around to adjust after all! thx Wendy!

done updating the Xaraya core so that the rest of the world can now benefit from my genius...

wondering just how long it takes registration email to be sent from MyOuterSpace.com...

getting a three year overdue change made to the Xaraya core, via the base module timezone handling for daylight savings...

swear I was gonna go to bed, but then I got inspired to add a randomizer to the myThemeLab module...

defined Teraphim on Ivory-Tower: a Hebrew word from the Bible, found only in the plural, of uncertain etymology[1]. Despite being plural, Teraphim is thought to refer to singular objects, using the great plural of Hebrew which implies magnificence not plurality (cf. Elohim for El). The word Teraphim is explained in Classical Rabbinical Literature as meaning disgraceful things (dismissed by modern etymologists), and in many English translations of the Bible it is translated as idols, or household god(s), though its exact meaning is more specific than this, but unknown precisely.
