Summer again

Wed May 06, 2009 19:45 (UTC -5)

Well, hello there. I’m home, and there hasn’t been much to report.

Friday night, my last night in Hume Hall, was pretty quiet. I basically spent it with my friend Andrea, who was as bored as I was. She made some food for us, but I got hungry later, as people are wont to do. That’s when I found out that all of the dining halls, convenience stores, and restaurants on campus had closed early. We went to McDonald’s, where there was a touch-screen game system presumably for the kids as they munch on their Happy Meals. After eating, we took a whack at a trivia game that was too hard for us, let alone some little McNugget-gobbling brats. It took us about a million tries to beat the high score, and we were very proud.

On Saturday, my dad came and helped me moved out. We spent the night at my aunt’s house, and then on Sunday, we took the long way home. I got home Sunday night and, well, here I am.

I’ve been working online, and that’s been pretty okay. As a webmaster, I do most of my work on the Internet, so it’s been basically like going to work, except I don’t have to walk there. That would be a long walk.

Also, I just found out today that I got all A’s and B’s in my classes. Awesome. Let’s celebrate with an edition of Ask Jordon:

Carlos: When are you coming out of beta? Flickr already did.

Well, my friend Luke, since this design looks so modern and Web 2.0 (is that still modern?), and because it’s always subject to change, I thought a “beta?” badge would be appropriate next to the logo until I have it the way I like it. The only thing I’m yet concerned about is the line spacing. Do you guys think there needs to be more space between the lines here? I’ll have to check it out on Windows and see what looks okay.

Tomorrow is the National Day of Reason, which coincides with that National Day of Prayer thing. Americans United for Separation of Church and State explains why the National Day of Prayer is a bad idea.

Here are lots of crazy McDonald’s menu items from around the world. Find out where you can get McSpaghetti.

Earth Hour was March 28. Here are some photos of cities around the world in the dark.

I am so special for having finally made both the main body post and the links!
