Happy anniversary

I got this letter today and I thought who is close enough to know that
our annivesary is in October but thoughtless or mean enough to leave
(e:matthew) out?

Turned out to be the mortgage broker sending us a house closing
anniversary, haha! It's so stars and sparkles of him.

What friend of ours would remember our anniversary and send us a card?

That is a funny story
tinypliny - 10/03/08 12:59
That's so funny. I didn't know mortgage brokers were so charming. :)

Main street remodel
Category: buffalo
It's starting to look a lot better now between North and Allen. They
just need some businesses to move in. Did Kaleida buy it? The
building that got knocked down was so freakin' ugly. Its sad when the
no building, knocked down, rubble pile look is better looking than the
building that was there. I wonder if they will get rid of the short
one in middle too?

I must be turning blind or just apathetic, I never see these things!

Duck and cover?
Category: work
Nope, it's not a nuclear attack duck and cover. It's a study that
needs a presentation and an overly dedicated (e:imk2). I left my
headphones in her car the other day, when I stopped by she demoed her
office camping gear for me. She tried to convince me it is cozy under
there. It looks way cosier than my nasty cube. Her work space is
like 1000x better than mine. Someday, I hope I can have an office,
let alone a window.

tinypliny - 10/02/08 22:22

tinypliny - 10/02/08 22:16

Things that make me happy
Category: food
Top of that list is crab legs, yum!

tinypliny - 10/02/08 21:25
It looks like its all bone or whatever ossification crabs possess. How much edible "meat" do you actually get out of a leg like that?
paul - 10/02/08 18:25
It's back, sorry ;(

Terminals
Category: computers
I know that terminals have tabs now in leopard but most of the time I am watching log files as they fill up and need to compare so I just keep making separate windows. Plus with tabs you have to keep flipping through em. Its like looking at 15 different papers on you desk and putting 14 of them back in a manilla folder everytime you switch papers.

Mac OS makes this so easy to switch between open windows/application using expose. With a key press it or mouse gesture it basically takes all the windows you have stacked up everywhere and makes them tiny so you an select the one you want to focus on. I like this better than any ther solution.

Anyways, this morning I so many terminal windows open it was crazy.

That many windows/terminals would drive me nuts!
