I don’t suppose anyone knows whether the built in modems on iMacs or Lombard model PowerBooks support Caller ID. Feel free to drop me an email if you do. It just occurred to me today that since I have Caller ID it would be fairly cool to whip up a little REALbasic program that announced who was calling. I suppose that even if those internal modems don’t support it I may have an old external that does.

I was surprised to wake up to a light skiff of snow this morning. Didn’t realize that was in the cards at all. Of course tonight we’re supposed to get a few inches of snow turning into freezing rain in the morning. With the steep hill outside my apartment that inevitably means I’m going to be hearing a lot of spinning tires tomorrow morning when I wake up.

I actually have quite a bit of space now that I’ve cleaned up some of the clutter in my apartment. It’s a nice feeling. I’ve been thinking about doing a site redesign for a while now, but I haven’t started on it yet. I think I should be able to find time during the coming week though.

I didn’t watch any of the playoff games this past weekend, but it’s definitely cool to see a bunch of fresh teams in the NFL playoffs. CNNSI‘s Peter King gives a pretty good rundown on this week’s match ups.

Incidentally, Jeff Robinson, one of my dad‘s former players, scored a touchdown for the Rams in yesterday’s game against the Vikings. He was a starter for the Ferris basketball team that finished second in the Washington AAA state tournament in 1988.

Yay! My manager is taking care of my dripping ceiling problems. He seems like a pretty good guy. The whole situation actually gives me an excuse to rearrange the furniture in my bedroom a little bit.

Cringely’s latest column mostly talks about his take on the AOL/Time-Warner merger, but the most interesting thing to me was the last paragraph:

Today has been sleep in and clean the apartment day. Might as well start the millenium off on a clean note I say. I don’t really have any specific resolutions though. I wonder if there are any good resolutions out there in the web world. Here’s an amusing top ten list of resolutions you won’t keep this year. I found resolution 0 to be especially amusing (yes, there are actually more than ten).

0. When I hear “Where do you want to go today?” I won’t reply “MS Tech Support.”

My apartment has been really hot lately!

I’ve been enjoying a strawberry rhubarb pie that Mary gave me immensely!

Today like most Sunday’s ended up being a pretty uneventful day for me. I did get in a nice phone conversation with Mary, who is over in Seattle house sitting for her brother.

My apartment has been pretty hot lately. I may have to pick up a little air conditioner soon.

Today was rearrange and clean my apartment day, but it looks like I’m going to have to continue tomorrow.

This early morning daylight thing is seriously messing with my sleep cycle. I’m feeling tired and going to bed around 11pm then I’m waking up around 5:30am!
It probably doesn’t help that I’ve been cutting down on my caffeine intake lately too.

I was supposed to have lunch with my family at my grandparents, but unfortunately my grandpa had stomach flu and we had to cancel our plans. I hope he’s feeling better.

I ended up spending my day working on my apartment some more, napping, reading various people’s online journals, and of course playing StarCraft.

Today is definitely the day to work on cleaning up my apartment. It’s just a little bit too chaotic right now.

I’m learning about regular expressions and perl today.

Today I came across an interesting collection of web journals from people living in the Pacific Northwest.

I made absolutely no progress on cleaning up my apartment. Sigh

Fun ways to mess up with your sleep cycles. Or something like that. I fell asleep and woke up around 3:30am today.

My apartment is definitely in a transitional messy rearrangement phase right now.

Tonight I went to this year’s Ham On Regal with my mom and it is now very clear to me where Nichole gets all her Pinkettes related traits.

Apartment cleaning phase one. Did a little bit of general cleaning (my bathtub is the ultimate soap scum/blue lint accumulator ever) and rearranging. My kitchen is now back to one computer.

Then I fell asleep.

Today I’m going on a serious apartment cleaning spree. For some reason I woke up at 6 AM this morning and actually got up rather than going back to sleep.

I’m even thinking about finally getting Linux up and running on my other machine!

The Ferris boys basketball team beat LC 51-39 yesterday to win the GSL district championship. Nice job guys!

It sure has been raining a lot the last couple days. I like it!

Today I decided to stop off at Pier 1 Imports on my way home and work on improving my apartment decor. I’d only been thinking about going there for oh, about seven months. I picked up a couple picture frames and a table cloth.
