winter cleaning

I am updating my website, and drastically overhauling the design. I’m using kind of the same basic design as I use on this page. I really like the way this page is set up and the way it works in a technical sense. I am very proud of the CSS I wrote for it. The rest of my website will soon be fully CSS enabled. Like you care, I know!

Anyway, many things will change. I hope to have it complete this week, then on to the next project, which is either going to be A) finishing that painting on the easel in the garage, B) working on a DVD project (maybe Christmas, maybe a slideshow, maybe a music video), or C) starting writing on the next book. I need to do “C,” but probably will opt for A initially, then B later on.

I’m having trouble typing tonight because I paper-cut my left index finger tip, or rather, I foil-cut it trying to get the foil lid off a tub of blue cheese crumbles. I’m typo-ing every other word.

Last night I was having a series of weird dreams with very vivid and drastic imagery. I think that John and Melanie Lanning were in it (we spent the evening with them last night). It involved large semi trucks on fire, burning tires, tornadoes, cats, basements, houses I suddenly didn’t recognize, and lots of other strange things that unnerved me.

I’ve been trying to ignore the news for the past few days, so I don’t know what stupid things that our leaders have done or what crazy ways the media is reporting it (or not). Tomorrow, it’s back to the routine.
