(e:mike), I can really see how you were overcome by the holy spirit before that entry.

It won't stop snowing. (e:jason) , have you posted from your 'kick yet?

This morning I had to take sang to the airport at 7:30 after going to bed at 2. Then I had to take emily to the train station at 14:00. Here is (e:emilyjane) 's going away photo.

Everything is crazy today. I went out with (e:matthew) , chris and his mom till about 1PM at this bar in North Tonawanda called Half Blue Moon Bar on Wheatfield road.

I hadn't been to NT in a long time. One of chris' mom coworkers worked the bar. I decided to risk the mad cow and (e:matthew) and I got bacon wrapped steak.

So it was at the bar in the middle of nowhere that we learned about the asteriod of April, 13 2029. A 1 in 300 chance isn't so slim, right? Anyways, seeing as the earth spins pretty regularly, and they can pinpoint it down to April 13, 2029, then they can probably guess real well where on earth it is going to hit.

(e:matthew) and I are going to film a movie about it. It is going to be our first collaborative video project.

On another my aunt decided to have christmas despite illness. So Nonna can't go because she is 90 and the flu would be bad. I also can't deal with the possibility of being sick as I have so much to do in the next week with (e:terry) 's sister coming to visit. (E:southernyankee) coming to visit, chris still here, and then (e:twisted) coming. So (e:terry) and I are going to spend it with Nonna. It's also a lot better because of the weather. Nonna lives in our hood and we have to go their in the morning anyway - so I'd rather get stuck there than far away. (e:mike) wants to kill me I am sure. In his opinion I am ruining christmas eve.

The car keeps sliding on the ice, it is so scary.

So I just had the worst night of my life. I guess it is probably pretty self evident as I am writing at 7:30am and it's not cause I was up all night working. I tried to go to bed at around 1:30 after going out with Chris, matthew, and chris' mom. Seeing as we have a bunch of other house guests, I gave chris the bed I normally sleep on and slept near (e:matthew) and (e:terry). What a freakin mistake! Although, it is not his fault (e:matthew) is so sick and couldn't breathe or stop moving. He was wheazing in my ear for hours followed by twitching his feet. Then (e:terry) would sound out every other minute with his new chronic TB-style cough.

Anyways, I got no sleep so I woke up now at 7:30am. I wonder what I can get done before I decide to pass out. I cannot wait to get out of this hellhole. Only one more week before the mansion becomes reality and our desert dry heat changes to radiator heat.

To top it all off the car heat died somehow. This is exactly why we bought a 2000 vehicle, right? I might as well have bought an old piece of crap for te grief this piece of shit car has given me. It just started leaking antifreeze for no reason. Sounds really expensive and now it smells really bad like rotting fish. Last night we stopped at my Dad's to fill it up with more antifreeze in order to have heat on the way home and some spilled around the hole. I wonder if the toxic smell will ever go away.

Here is another hat that that (e:terry) made. It is so warm.

Chris Albon is back in town, we will be hanging out with him tonight. Then deidre comes tomorrow. Followed by Terry's sister on the 26th. Sang and emily leave on the 24th. Finally then (e:twisted) in Jan!!!!! And maybe (e:southernyankee) somewhere in between. I hope she is having a good time.

What is this about, a new haiku? Orange flakes make haikus.

misunderstanding,
Apparently yesterday,
for real deodorant.

As a torture for myself I am using IE for PC the whole day, just to make sure everything with the site works there.

I also have a couple other projects I would like to get started on. One is a giant database with UPC codes that people can access online. Users can then upload pictures to match the UPC codes. The end users can imput their daily consumables as UPC codes and get a image based on the item images. It would be exciting to see the collages in different neighborhoods, classes, and regions. It would be best if I had a UPC code reader. I doubt they are too expensive. Does anyone have one? I fnot I will begin hunting for one.

I think that you can generally assume the more objects in your day that you come into contact with that have UPC codes, the more generic your life experience is. If you think about all the stuff you have , anything that has a UPC is most likely not a unqiue item. I mean you can still do unique things wiith the item (i.e. a computer). But then think of something like a blanket your mom made for you. It has no UPC and is very unique. However, a blanket your mom bought at target has a UPC, and manufactured feeling that anyone can experience. Usually the things without UPC codes make you feel very special.

I have so many projects on hold right now. I wish i could just an extra life for them. Maybe when school is done I can focus on the million and a half art projects out there waiting for me. I keep deciding to write something and then get distracted with something I want to add to the site. It is both a curse and a blessing to be the person who makes new stuff. It is fun because I can make the site do whatever I want. For example, I was sick of scrolling to the entries and made the nav box, but othertimes it is totally consuming because it is so hard to decide not to add new stuff. I could honestly, sit and program 24 hours a day because it is so fun and I have so many ideas bu then I would have no friends - well accept (e:twisted).

On another note, my intro students had to make a web site for a futuristic product and one of them chose "chesse cigarettes." This is a graphic from their web site, unfortunetly it is offline or I would just give you the URL.

I updated the nav box once again. Now when you clos eit, it returns you to the top of the page. It is also draggable. If you click on the T it brings you to whever you have the "Top Twelve List" if you click on C it brings you to wherever the chat is. S toggles the scrollbars although it works them both on and off.

I have been updatign javascripts more. Now there is a title nav box. It is found between the scroll bar toggle and the large print icon at the top. Here is what the nav Box on ewest looks like. The one here is the same but green. There are a few littl ebugs with the movement arrows that I am working on but it generally works well to quickly navigate around the site..
