Wow! The response has been impressive. I just posted a blog post, the first I’ve done in quite some time, and already that post is on the front page of duck1123.wordpress.com. I can’t believe. I can’t stand it. How dare that post take of the most coveted first post on that site that just so happens to be the one that takes it’s name from the online id I use. I must knock it down by publishing that one.
First I must sprinkle you with fairy dust and while you’re distracted, I go and grab a cigarette from my wife.
Ha Ha! She may only have two, but I have many. Not only that, but I found some Cherry Coke and the keyboard for my macbook.
I try to like the macbook. I will give it credit, it is not that bad, but for the past several years I have been pretty much exclusively an Ubuntu user. I like Ubuntu and I pretty much have it set up pretty well. I’ve run dual boot off and on, but recently it’s been I only rebooted on the weekends if I wanted to play sims or Toby wanted to play Portal and then I would immediately reboot back into linux because ironically I haven’t been able to get Windows 7 to share it’s NTFS drive with the mac using the windows share protocol. I have to log into linux to get that.
I’ve been becoming a big fan of XBMC lately. We don’t have a TV in our bedroom and I bring the macbook into the bedroom and hook it up to an old CRT monitor that we had extra and the iPod docking clock radio my dad bought me for christmas one year because he thought I had an iPod. I didn’t. I had a Creative Zen M:Video which I now can’t use anymore because Toby jammed the cord into it and bent the pins.
Anyway, XBMC (You know. I really wish the technology was (Pandora just asked me if I was still listening (my wife just messaged (can you tell I’m a lisp programmer) from the other room. ) I said yes) there to nest thoughts better in blog posts) No time for that tonight. I should write that in another post
