Feeling incomplete

When I went to the eye doctor on Friday, the fine folks at DOC told me I could use the same frames that I had been using but that because the frames had some small scratches, I’d be better off getting new lenses. No problem, except for the fact that they no longer have an in-store lab and I am going to have to go without my glasses for 7-10 days. I don’t have a very strong prescription, so I can function, but there are definite drawbacks! Like, for example, people watching sucks, everyone looks vaguely similar from 100-200 feet away. *L* I also have some difficulty doing a lot of reading online, I have to sit closer to the monitor, and it’s not as comfortable. (Although it’s probably better for my posture!)

I also feel like I’m forgetting something every time I go anywhere, that’s annoying. I want my glasses back!

Also, an FYI, the navigation bar above is different on this page than all the static pages on the site. On those pages the text turns red as you move a mouse over the link, but, for some reason, the Blogger publishing engine was having issues with the “onMouseOver” code. So there shouldn’t be any more of those “Done but with errors on page” messages. I’m not sure what sort of changes I would have to make to the code to get the mouse-overs to work properly with Blogger, so I just took the code out.

    This seems like a rather insecure way to remotely control your PC. Afterall, anyone can send emails to your gmail account with “keywords”. Unless you can use long, randomly-generated, sets of characters. Even then, if you really have a need to control your PC remotely, learn to use a VNC program. Tags: GmailRemoteCommand Follow these…

    OK here’s the scenario, longtime readers will remember that my employer has a website. It’s not hosted locally because they don’t want to pay for a server, or pay me what I would demand to be responsible for a web server.

    As you can see from Angela’s post about our trip to the Newport Aquarium, little Dylan seemed to have the best time when she gave him her digital camera and let him wonder around taking pictures. They’re not too shabby for a 3 year old. Anyway, she and I are thinking of trying to find…

  • Mozilla

    I’ve been using Mozilla 1.1 for the last few days here at work. As I’ve mentioned before, it can’t really take the place of IE for me, because there’s too many things that don’t work quite right with it, yet. But I’m finding that I can use it in connection with IE to help some…

  • The Hive

    I originally applied for membership in the Hive back in June, just out of curiousity. I got an email sying that I didn’t qualify, which I didn’t really understand, but since they were looking mostly for folks who ran community-type sites I figured that even though I thought this site qualified, didn’t mean that everyone…

    Thanks for allowing me the temporary diversion in the interest of helping out Ohio’s libraries, now for the random techie comments: Perhaps the worst drive-by adware ever! According to Virtualsecurity.org, this one actually goes ahead and downloads the .NET framework if you don’t already have it, without asking, so it can use it to display…
