I read this quite a while back and went looking for it: CSS Drop Shadows: A List Apart Add to this thought in the back of my mind: the CSS trick I learned for wrapping text and left-justifying text from “Learning Moveable Type” Could they be combined? Also, that’s a sweet trick for setting off a quote block… it could be centered rather than left-justified and Bob’s yer uncle. Must play with that later.

Thanks to ***Dave I now know that Farscape is coming back. And that makes me happy happy boingity boingity yippy yippy puff puff cough cough collapse in chair happy. However, it’s apparent that there’s a major spoiler if you click on this link (but nothing David and I didn’t predict). I’m just saying that in all the pink and red and black little bits of matter in the final moments of the final Farscape episode, there was no fleshtoned stuff at all. And that means…nekkidness

It’s been a miserable day today at work – I’ve had some sort of allergy blow-up. The air quality at the office has always been horrible. I went looking for statistics and found Allergy.com – Pollen Graph. I’ll need it – although several of us complained all day about stuffy air, and specifically mentioned that it was hard to breathe, my team leader looked totally blank when I asked if she could check with the building management people and have them check the air circulation. I’ve felt all day as if I had my head in a slightly warm oven,…

Arrrrgh… we didn’t set up TiVo right for this:`Deep Space’ boldly goes to Spike TV… we set it to record the whole marathon, but forgot to set TiVo to keep more than 5 episodes at a time. D’oh. We like DS9 when it was on, but missed a lot because it was shown at a weird time here. Maybe they’ll continue repeating, though, and we’ll catch up eventually, as we did with Stargate-1

Or, Don’t Mess With Texas: Yahoo! News – Jury Acquits Texas Mother Who Killed Sons What is it about Texas, religious mania, and murderous moms, anyway? Sheesh, glad I’m right out of the running.

The day we walked up the road in Lamb’s Canyon, the sun was warm and bright, and everything looked as if it had been done over by Mother Nature’s spring cleaning — all the branches were bare on the aspen and scrub oak. The snow was slowly drawing back the covers it had thrown over the rocks and the ridgelines from their winter sleep. It’s not spring up there just yet, but it’s just around the next turn in the road. And in the meantime, the snow is melting into pure, cold water. From here, it flows into Parley’s Canyon,…

With the help of the latest entry at Learning Movable Type: Text Wrap, I’ve improved the way the images for the Scotland entry in the travel journal work with text wrapped around them (or under them, in the case of a short amount of text). It’s noticeable when you scroll down from the Scotland entry – pretty neat and wrapping correctly – and then get to entries like York and London. All of this is leading up to a boatload of images to be messed with. I ended up cancelling the Art Institute excursion with David’s parents and staying home…

One last thing – it appears the Salty Vicar has gotten himself a TypePad setup, with (oh yay!) XML or RSS or whatever it’s called. So time to update my settings.

Oooooog. I don’t feel so good. I think I’ve got the beginnings of a sinus infection. I’ve been off all week and could have been decently and appropriately sick, but nooo. I’m getting sick at the beginning of the weekend, but not be sick enough to stay home from work next week. And tomorrow, we’re supposed to meet David’s parents downtown and go to the Art Institute. Sunday we’re supposed to get together with Steve and go on an early-spring photo safari to the Botanic Gardens again. And I don’t want to stay home anymore. Bleah.
