You know... None of the people who ever send me PGP-signed messages do so consistantly (or else, someone is mimicking all of them really well). This seems to defeat most of the point.
Keri, as I've been noticing anew, is a natural blogger, in a way that I have never been. I wanted to link specifically to her 'Diary of a Weekend' entry, but her archives, and therefore her direct linking, are terribly broken. It should be obvious that with 'natural blogger' I mean to claim that she is amusing and engaging and prolific, rather than technically impeccable by any means.
I've just given Tanetris a useless answer about whether I mean to attend the Megatokyan gathering at the end of December, because, although I do mean to, I have no idea whether I actually will. I really need to figure that out. Alpicola, do you check your e-mail? (I could say that I will try and come on and talk to you, but my promising such things seems to have an eery tendency to make them not happen, so let's try it the other way.)
I may take something other than Introduction to Government Politics, because it turns out that Marilee won't be in that class after all. I still have a week to figure that out; perhaps the class which is particularly about Canadian Politics? (Which I find to be peculiarly relaxing.) Marilee came to my terribly haphazard belated birthday party this Saturday, which was a great deal of fun for me even though everyone kept lynching me in Werewolf. I hope that she also had fun; she's seemed a little down, since.
(My actual birthday was roughly two weeks ago, the fifteenth. I got several novels and graphic novels (the latter all by JMS), the Daily Show's 'America: The Book', the Neverwinter Nights 'Hordes of the Underdark' expansion set, three CDs by the Beatles and one by Metric. There is some bittersweetness to the Beatles albums, which contained most of the stuff they did which I'd never heard - I'm not there yet, but it can't be long before I never hear a Beatles track for the first time again - so I approached them with a strange reluctance, waiting several days before finally opening Magical Mystery Tour. When I have finished seeking these out, an era will end.
They were very good, of course.)
I think it's a good thing that I'm this tired.

Technical what?
Date: 2004-12-01 02:34 pm (UTC)Wait, what are you saying about my technical proficiency? Am I untechnically proficient? Technically unproficient? Er, hunh?
Oh, I'm just teasing. I like to reserve my technical fluency for term papers, because most of the internet has very little appreciation for devices like parallel structure and my God, if every post had to have a thesis, I think I'd have to kill myself.
My archives are, indeed, terribly broken, but I have no idea how to fix them. I can't find anything wrong with my code (ha! As if I know what to look for!) and nothing wrong with the server, either. I am forced to conclude that Blogger SUCKS. I'll switch, maybe, when I find something I like better. God knows, maybe at Christmas I'll finally implement all those text and code renovations I've been dreaming about.
