So this is going to be a large mass of info vomit. I have kind of neglected updating this for a while (almost 3 months in fact) so this is a long time coming. My one excuse for this delay is I was moving this site and my dad’s over to a VPS that hopefully gives better performance for loading stuff and I don’t have to depend on a less than dependable home ISP to host the stuff. So this should be getting read from my VPS, I need to update my dad’s site there before pointing his DNS to it still…

Kim graduates in the next few weeks. We get to live together pretty much from then on, which will be nice. The first time we really get to be around each other without constant chaos and stress (school and long distance). It will be nice tasting the future and getting used to it. She got a job so she will get to stay in the US, even though there is still a bunch to figure out in terms of visas for stuff, but that is all a nice hurdle to have to overcome. Hopefully everything works out great in these next few months :).

I realized that I am over a year behind in posting images to this site. I also realized just how crappy the UI design of the gallery is. I will probably find some time in the next few weeks to overhaul that. But that will come after I have revamped my desktop. I have wanted to move to XMonad for a while, but due to some technical hurdles (the nVidia XOrg drivers don’t support Xinerama easily, meaning I lose two monitors) I have been slow to make the change. I am going to try and spend some time soon trying to get past that and dive into a more productive system. Then I shall try and draw up a not sucky UI and set that up and then migrate over the images from Japan, Frisbee, and the other random ones I have.

I should probably write a follow up when I have a better organization of my thoughts. Sorry about this sudden and messy pile of info being vomited onto your browser…
