I wrote a script for greasemonkey (well, i copied and pasted and edited one) that eliminates the “Grade my professor. New!” crap from the home portion of myspace. Get it here.
August 2006
I dreamt that Cena left me for another guy. Except he was really a shape shifting dragon. I slept in. I was mentally exhausted. I remembered my vitamins. I started some laundry and made the bed and showered. I cleaned up bird blood from a poor sparrow that Yeti brought in a few nights earlier. Cena picked me up and we went to Coastal Cold Storage for lunch. I had a bacon cheeseburger plain and dry and added my own special combination of ketchup and mustard. I drank a Coke. I went to work for the afternoon and got to see that there were four or five lap swimmers during the school’s break from the pool. I wrote a pay request for over a half million dollars and made long lists of things that need to be done in the new pool. I delegated and assigned. I used to not do that well. At 3:30 the kids filed into the warm water pool as the high school team began practicing in the lap pool. There was a line 25 kids long to ride the slide. After work we went to Java Hus and met with Matt and Val for their wedding reception planning for this Saturday evening. Then we went to dinner at Northern Lights and we shared buffalo bites. They gave us so many that i decided to save my grilled ham and cheese and only eat the french fries (they never reheat well). We went home and cleaned litter boxes, vacuumed, did laundry and other chores. I spent quite a while on the computer paying bills online and trying to reconcile my checking account. I gave up. At 1 the police called because one of the pool doors was left open and they did not have a key to lock it (yet). Today isn’t done yet so i can’t quite tell the tale.
The swimming pool made the statewide news on APR.
My, what a nice stocking stuffer for the bacon lover in your life.
So the new pool is supposed to be done on Friday. There will be a number of things still being worked on in the next few weeks but the building should be working as planned. (Think about the second Death Star and how on the surface it appeared incomplete but was in fact “fully operational” as the Emperor put it.) In the middle of September Cena and I are headed to Anchorage for a meeting I have. We’re thinking about making it a little longer than just a weekend trip up and back though. We have not been able to spend time in the area when it wasn’t winter. I need to head to Homer anyway to look at an accessible fishing facility that we will be using for inspiration for an improvement to the area just north of Eagle’s Roost Park. Then in the middle of October we’re headed to Seattle along with three of my staff members to go to the national p&r conference in Seattle. We’re all going so that we can get inspired to put on a good state conference when it is hosted in 2008 in Petersburg.
