I know it's way late, like a year late, but I did take enough photos to complete my 365 project last year, so here they are. It felt right to end on day 355 with my hooding, plus a few bonus images after that to include last year's A-Kon. This link goes to where this set starts: March 2, 2012. This link goes to the very end: June 2, 2012.

I put together a list tonight of things that the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie stole from Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Ark. A few of them are doozies ( Read more... )

So I'm typing by firelight, an odd experience by itself. I know it's been a long time since I posted. Without much explanation, here are two lists about me. One list is some webcomics that I would suggest (not necessarily the same as those I read). I won't bother pushing the standard comics that most geeks swear by. The other list is the ( Read more... )

Your Daily Zen (of the Non-Religious Variety):
A brief written interview with an author awarded in the UK for 'services to literature and drama':
'Most religious leaders are fools'

What if countries are effectively giving privateer licenses to network criminals today like they did for pirates in the past?

It sounds like a life insurance ad or something, but yeah, how bad would it be if your hard drive died in the next 24 hours? This is a gentle poke to say don't lose your current semester's research or your latest art and writing. Copying user-created files to a USB stick is the quickest way to make a local backup. I now go to make a full backup ( Read more... )

Two people have taken showers in the shower now. The light fixtures will be installed today if I can get help and some screws. Silly Ikea, not including wall screws in anything. Maybe the rest of the furniture will be installed today, including toilet, storage space, and sink. I don't know.

New sealant for the tub surround tiles and floor tiles was acquired today, and two coats applied to each. It finished about half an hour ago, and the sealant package lists a drying time of "2-3 hours". To be safe, I would say that the shower will be functional again "in the morning", as long as the curtain has been restored to its full and ( Read more... )

The grout on walls and floor was supposed to be sealed tonight, but upon opening it was found that the sealant had crystallized into small rubbery chunks. Home Depot was already closed. I spent over three hours smoothing grout lines on the tub surround today, so I was all ready to go. Assuming we get new sealant early tomorrow, this puts the ( Read more... )

I'm done gluing tile to the floor of our bathroom. During the last stretch, I worked for the last three hours nonstop, finishing exactly at midnight. The gluing step has taken about a week by itself, and has made me delay almost everything else I had planned to do during that time. I apologize for those delays, particularly to the people of the ( Read more... )
