Thanks Jenn…

Jenn shared this with me, so I thought I’d share it with all of you:

A few small changes…

For your pleasure and benefit, a few small changes/fixes to the site:

  • Topics are now working.
  • Permalinks are now enabled and working (http://www.woodsmoke.net/postname)
  • Bio updated, albeit not complete.
  • Added Twitter status to all pages/search results

Need to get around to that bio, but I’ll do it soon.

I can (up), can I (up), partner let me upgrade you

Ah yes, cheesy lyrics for a post title. I love it.

As the title suggests - I finally got around to completing the Wordpress 2.5 upgrade. No real change in look for you all - but some fun stuff for me. I’ll get around to all of that stuff I promised, maybe sooner now than before.

It’s starting to dawn on me a year from today I will be making a transition. I don’t really see it as “entering the real world” - I’m already in the real world. I have a house that requires maintenance, I have bills to pay, a car to pay for, insurance that’s required, yada yada yada. Will it be any better? Eh, it’s hard to say. I am excited to be done with ’school’, even if only for a short while.

Things at the job are well - still relatively quiet, although I’ve now made my trips to the ‘kill floor’, rendering and casings, all of which are a once in a lifetime experience (at least I hope).

Notes of late -

  • Switched over to a BlackBerry last week. The Sprint Simply Everything plan suckered me in. Between that and the killer deal I got on the phone (made $75 on the deal) I’m quite happy.
  • Had some friends come in this weekend, we had a pretty good time. Ended up with some members of a pretty famous band at our house. It was pretty sweet.
  • The end of the semester doesn’t look to be any worse off than any other year - but being organized with to-do lists and a calendar sure do make it look scary.
  • Twitter STILL hasn’t fixed the delete tweet bug. That really annoys me, especially when I make a typo.
  • Exploring some new options for managing/dealing with my money. Perhaps have some opportunities to do some better things with it.

Placeholder for post ideas I want to write but haven’t done so yet:

  1. 100 Things to Do Before I Graduate
  2. The Perfect Female

That’ll be all for now. Look for the above ideas to propagate sometime in the near future.

Ladies and gentlemen please, would you bring your attention to me? For a feast for your eyes to see, an explosion of catastrophe - like nothing you’ve ever seen before, watch closely as I open this door. Your jaws will be on the floor, after this you’ll be begging for more.

Welcome to the show, please come inside ladies and gentlemen…
