The weather was quite nice this past week, at least in the afternoons and evenings (if grey in the mornings).
We spent parts of Monday doing hardware swapping. We're going to send my old G3 to my parents. So we wiped the disk, re-installed Panther, swapped memory sticks and hard drives between this box and others, and generally made it ready to "move in.".
I played with PHP this week. I wanted to find a survey form that would let me ask questions, format the results, and mail those results to a specified address. I googled, investigated, and found a nice little program called Super Simple Survey. The, being me, I added some features that I wanted that were missing. I'm pretty happy with the results.
Omni Graffle 4.0 is out. If you use Mac OS X, this is a whiz-bang diagramming package.
Rich and I have started using Adium in-house instead of iChat. iChat has some "annoyances" (bugs) that have been driving us both batty. 😦
On Saturday night, we drove into SF to a Greek Cultural & Food festival. Apparently the members of the community/church made the food. It was quite good. I'm told they made 8000 desert pastries alone! We had a large gyros (with lovely tomato pieces in it), a kebab, some salad (more lovely tomatoes), a spanakopita, a tiropita (nice cheese, not too salty), some lamb chops (very good) and a piece of baklava. Then we bought two more pieces of baklava to take home. Rich bought a cap. We bought some olive oil.
This week I read The Last Resort, second in the Kate Jasper series by Jaqueline Girdner. These are fun books. I have the whole set. Rich is ahead of me…
In between and around the rest, I've had almost enough naps and plenty of snuggles with the cats. There have been good meals and interesting conversations with Spouse and friends. I've had a few chats with my Dad and exchanged email with my Mom.
Onward and Upward.
