Life is good

January 15, 2003 Stephanie Leary

MT static files fixed, most recent entries cleaned up and categorized. Blog working beautifully. Life is good. Next on the list: customize the formatting of the comments window. Oh, and clean up the other 200 posts. (Nothing like importing 240-odd posts to weigh down a new … [Read more...] about Life is good

Whew!

January 14, 2003 Stephanie Leary

I got MT up and running not a moment too soon… the second (and last) of my Blogger blogs nuked itself this morning as I was making one last entry. Thank $deity the MT export format is simple and allowed me to fix the problem (unlike Blogger's interface, which simply ate … [Read more...] about Whew!

Buffy and Angel, together again

January 14, 2003 Stephanie Leary

The WB has given permission for David Boreanaz to appear in the Buffy finale if this is its last season. If the source is reliable, this is huge, fantastic, wonderful news.

mmmm, starch

January 10, 2003 Stephanie Leary

Potato Shack is open in Bryan! Woo hoo!! I've been comparing the Treo and the HipTop/Sidekick, and I've just about worked myself up to buying a Treo. It's cheap right now, the coverage is better, I still get the ability to take notes and sync with the PC (as I do now on the … [Read more...] about mmmm, starch

When good interfaces go bad, take 2

January 9, 2003 Stephanie Leary

For months I've been swearing at the email client I have to use at work because in the Mac version, the user has no control over the font used to display the messages. You can specify this on outgoing messages, but not on the ones you read. The manual says this is because the … [Read more...] about When good interfaces go bad, take 2

Silly, silly people

January 9, 2003 Stephanie Leary

Some people have far too much spare time: there is a memorial page for the villain who met his end on this week's Buffy. It's very, very silly, although his epitaph is an amusing reference to Buffy's. … [Read more...] about Silly, silly people

Thoughts on turning 25

January 8, 2003 Stephanie Leary

I feel so much better about my life than I did a year ago. It took two job switches, but I'm happy with the way things are going now. I have a bean. eeeeeeee!

rantrantrant

January 7, 2003 Stephanie Leary

I really, really need to rant. If you don't give a rodent's behind about web design, skip to the next post. For the rest of you…. a certain fellow employee, in a distant but related part of my organization, hired a freelance web designer not long ago to create a new site … [Read more...] about rantrantrant
