Got the MRI on my neck. No word yet from the doctor, naturally. The neck is not too bad at the moment, but the insomnia and the migraines have been slapping me around for the last few days. You know you’re having a lousy week when PMS is a welcome relief.

I have design ideas for all three of the websites I’m currently scheduled to work on. Hooray!

I have zero ideas for the novel. Nada. Zilch. The next sixty thousand words are a vast wasteland, as are the next sixty. Perhaps I can manage six….

Michael is muttering to himself as he goes back and forth between his textbook in the dining room and his laptop in his study. No, I don’t know why he does not simply consolidate these two areas. I think fluid mechanics have shorted out his brain.

I tried out CakePHP at work today. I think I like it. In fact, I think it might be made of pure awesome, but I’m too green to say for sure. I’ve never worked with the MVC patten before, so I’m having to learn that and Cake’s syntax at the same time. Tomorrow I go in search of examples more complex than the blog demo in the manual but with more context than the code posted in the Bakery. I mean, thank you, author of the LDAP auth code. I need that. I just have no idea yet how to use what you’ve handed me.

Off to find six words.
