Back home

Hey, it's another fun-sized post from The World of Stuff. I think the jumbo-sized ones are temporarily out of stock.

We moved back into the house last night, and the new tile looks pretty good. Not everything is functioning and in its proper place -- particularly my computer, with its mess of wires and stuff -- but most things are. We got a lot done last night in terms of moving things. Anyway, the rooms certainly look different. I think they look more inviting and comfortable with an earthy brown type of tile than the boring white tile we had before.

Yesterday in Mr. Weigel's class, he did one of those things that only he can do. He stood in the general area of my desk and gave me a weird look until I noticed. Then he tried to quote the unwieldy title of a fairly recent post: A Fourth Serving of Cruel Joke Soup for the Already Gloomy Soul, in which I talk about none other than her. Hey, we're all angsty sometime, and that's pretty much what I told him. Apparently someone in another one of his classes pointed out my site to him. I know that she is in another of his classes. What if it was her? Sometimes I wish I'd started blogging anonymously or pseudonymously, but at least I haven't revealed her name. I know that if I did, it would open up a can of worms for me somehow. Now excuse me while I talk to myself. She's taken. She's taken. She's taken. She's taken...

(That's right, Weigel, go tell Firestone about my angsty online blubbering. He's well aware already. By the way, thanks for giving us extra time for the visual aid. Also, I like your class.)

Last June I wrote about an easy new way to colorize photos digitally. Now it seems that the technology has been applied in a program called Recolored.

Here's some information about the capitol of each U.S. state. Do you know what your state capitol looks like? Maybe it would be better if you didn't. I'd never seen a picture of the capitol of my own state, Florida. Ugh. Look if you dare -- it makes my eyes bleed.
