Toss me a one-liner

me: I should note - the new Santana song is poppy and fun.
Geof: Hmmmm. Santana … never totally sure about them for my tastes. Some stuff works. -shrug-
me: His collab[orative] stuff has been fun. But, then again, I have a bit of a weakness for Latin music in general.
Geof: heh.

Of the ten percent

Was today a good day? I’m unsure. I spent far too many hours beating on code, and at the end of the day I had very little actual progress to show for it.

Sorry about not providing the next installment of ‘Without Prior Notice’ tonight. We ended up getting an unexpected invitation to visit a friend’s house, and…how to say it?

Readers, you so got ditched. I know, I know, the suspense has been killing you. I’m sorry to suck all the oxygen out of your reading existence today, but I’m horrible and need to be smacked.

Four pigs' worth of ribs

Friday afternoon.
Amy, to Jeff: “I think I’ll do ribs tomorrow night, since Gareth is flying back in.”
Saturday morning.
Amy, to Jeff: “Hey, Tim said he was free on Saturday. Want to give him a call?”

A comma, a comma, my kingdom for a comma!

Work on Quarto progresses.  Having firmly re-saddled myself a day or two ago, I settled in and got some real work done today.  Hence, the lack of entries (did you get lonely in the meantime?).  Probably most cheerworthy is the stunning fact that there is now something to actually <em>test</em>&mdash;in addition to user authentication and logging functions, I now have full user editing capabilities set up.
