10/5/97 - Subcutaneous Feelings.

     Only have time for a minor update today,
     as it's late on Sunday.  But I wanted to
     keep the content here regularly updated.
     At least I STILL update my site, and love
     doing so...it's not a very common thing
     these days to see a long-running web site.

     Okay, so I was hit by a minor bout of
     technophilia this weekend. ;)  I admit
     it.  I downloaded Microsoft Internet
     Explorer 4.0 and...

     Well, let's just say it's one of those
     things that gadget lovers coo over.  All
     the customizability, all the fresh
     opportunities for new way to dazzle
     viewers and crash their browsers while
     doing so!  Lance has already talked about
     MSIE 4.0 at the 'Dog.  He CRAVES that
     shit.  I've never been as interested in
     the latest features that never go anywhere
     as he is. ;)  But hey, I can say that I
     knew more than what he proferred in his
     latest experience.

     So I installed it late last night,
     expecting a Sunday of headaches.  Well
     get this -- no weirdities at all.  If
     only the Hardian Tess were this lucky.
     The only problems I'm having are
     memory-related, and that's just slowdowns
     in general use.  Nothing major.

     So I've spent a few hours making sure
     the settings are set exactly how I
     like them (for I pay attention to stupid
     details) and making sure everything on
     my computer was disgustingly clean.

     And then I got some experience encoding
     RealAudio files, which took up some more
     time.

     "Oh shit!" the narrator exclaims as he
     looks at the time and then whips out his
     short assignment on combined indirect
     discourse, dependent clauses, and future
     more vivid...in Latin.  He stays cool
     and sweats not a bead, then efficiently
     finishes the task, to continue working
     on his happily content computer.

       "It is when I struggle to be
        brief that I become obscure."

     Don't worry, sweetie...I've worked
     plenty on the Latin.  I hope we'll have
     some time to talk this week. <affectionate
     kiss>

     It's 2AM here and I have class at 10AM.
     Got most of what I needed to do this
     weekend out of the way, except for the
     Soapbox.  Oh well, I already have it
     planned.

     So that's my boring diary entry of the
     year.  Don't worry -- I'm not starting
     a habit...<gasp> That would contradict
     everything I am!
