Envy

I recently read about someone named Samantha Brick, who wrote "I know I’m beautiful–Daddy told me so." It was reported on Yahoo and I read the comments from many people.

It was strange how so many of the people were very angry at her. One would think that she murdered people for fun and profit to have such a reception. I don't know, but perhaps all these people were envious. I don't think I've seen such anger even in politics. At least in politics you are usually defended by your own side.

              

I've had a long day at work today. The whole morning was devoted to a problem with the password. No helpful message was given, but I finally deduced that the age of the password was limited and figured out how to turn that off. I made out a bug report, too. That shouldn't be like that.

I doubt if the future users know what testers go through for their sake, but when you get something done almost without thinking on the computer, remember to thank all the people who worked on it in the past. :-)

              

Yesterday, my wife asked if I wanted to go for a walk and I assured her I did, but I wanted to keep it short. We ended up going halfway up the hill and walking along a trail for a little bit more than half-a-mile. There are some flowers that I vaguely remember that are beauties. I'll have to look them up soon before I forget. I wonder if my wife still has her camera?

We finally got to where the trail split and went straight up and down the side of the hill. We went down and walked home. That's my wife for you    as adventurous as she is sweet.

Broken bones and storage

After supper last afternoon, I went for a walk with my wife. As she attempted to converse with me, she fell off the sidewalk into the gutter onto her ribcage. She now wonders if she broke a rib. If so, then that could mean that she has about three broken bones currently healing up. She's upstairs now cleaning and waxing the kitchen floor.
Naturally, I feel a bit guilty for being the proximate cause. If she was talking with a friend, it would have been different.

It looks like we just need to sweep out the old storage place and remove the lock. Pretty soon we'll be finished. with that tiny phrase in our lives. The advantages of the old storage was that it was across the street from a laundry and the new one is across the street from a bar; and that the door was exposed to public view instead of hidden back in a niche. The advantages of the new storage is that it isn't a foot off the ground and therefore easier to get into; has a regular door instead of a garage door that lets everybody see what is within (Mainly our books will be exposed to public view and they're not something that a fence will pay a lot for); and it costs $35 a month less.

I think it's a good deal.

I've been asked to take over a website's updating and will need to check up on the stuff that they use in the website. If too difficult to learn or too much time, I'll say no. I asked for a month. I already looked at it and think I might be able to handle it. Just need to know all the gotchas.
