Etc
- The final inspection of the garage is today. Yay! We need to take more pictures.
- The kitchen reeks of garlic and I can’t figure out why. We had Chinese take-out last night, for heaven’s sake. It’s turning my stomach.
- It’s about goddamn time. Congratulations, Papa. I can’t wait to read it.
- A few years ago I planted two allium. The next spring, we got two flowers. The next year, four. This year, there are eight coming up. I suspect they need to be thinned out — moved a little bit, but I’m not sure how or when to do it. Anyone out there know?
- My mother wants to find some hot pink dinnerware. Suggestions?
- About a thousand years ago, I set up a Freelancer’s community on Orkut. Soon thereafter, Orkut combined with gmail and every time I tried to log in, I got caught in some strange unending loop of error messages. I blew it off — I never liked orkut much anyway. The other day I got an e-mail from a woman asking me if I’d clear some of the spam off the community or give someone else the authority to do it. Magically, I was able to sign on. I cleared out some obvious spam, and poked around a little. Orkut is looking like a waste of time of time to me. Should I just offer to transfer the ownership to that woman? Does anyone go to orkut anymore? Anyone want the community or want to be a moderator?
- Casey wrote to me yesterday expressing some frustration about there not being an easy RSS feed somewhere for comics’ pre-order information organized by creator. Good idea, Casey. I have Wednesday’s List on my machine, but I seldom use it (I don’t think it improves on the Midtown site at all), whereas I look at my RSS reader fairly frequently. Anyway, he’s a crazy-talented code mechanic and is entertaining the notion of putting something together at some point if there’s an interest. Is there an interest? Has it been done and he and I have missed it?
- I love Nikol. If I wasn’t nearly 3 weeks behind on work, I’d stop right now and make my own affirmations list. EDITED TO ADD: We’re putting together a crew for prom. Who else is going? OOA? Droob?

re: garlic: Do you have a disposal? Check the disposal. Run a lemon through there.
re: dinnerware: Target had a lot of pink when we were there yesterday. n.b.: answering this does not make me gay.
re: prom: I think we’re going to bail on prom this year, as much as I wanna go. Ashley’s kinda freaking out about the workload that’s coming in, and she’s trying to keep the calendar completely clear, pretty dresses or no.
But I might persuade her otherwise.
and I think I screwed up a tag in there.
ooh! and, last thing, I promise:
iComicsOnSale
Weekly Comic List Widget
I’ve tested neither.
iComicsOnSale looks cool – it has covers and creator information.
I wonder where they get that? The freely available Diamond data is suck (title, issue #, publisher, price)
Crooked Little Vein! jesus, Ellis is a monster, how much stuff has he written this year?
Well well, looks like the iComicsOnSale guy beat me to it
