I spent some of my weekend finishing up some framing of artwork that I have (mine and other artists), and picking out wall space where to put them (soon to come—some photos). Unfortunately, I was supposed to study, but had so many chores to take care of, that I am going to have to spend the day tomorrow catching up on my Japanese grammar and vocabulary.

Today, I decided to delete my Wordpress install and start with a fresh new installation and database. I had posts dating back quite a bit, and some of my plugins were a bit buggy from updating Wordpress over the years. I am still unsure if I am going to import all of my old posts.
Very interesting search engine… (e.g., especially when looking to discover new music similar to your tastes).
Also something amusing that I found by accident in the middle of my noctunal search for new music.
My brother is a funny little lad… and playing with a new Web cam at that. For the 2002–2003 Holiday season, he wanted one of those Micro Racers—supposedly the smallest radio controlled cars in the world… but I never got around to getting it because all those sites looked like dodgy spam warehouses…
So, I didn’t get to leave as planned yesterday… Many flights were cancelled because of poor visibility due to the snow, mine included.
Every year since 1990, I usually chose to forget about AIDS, or for that matter, World AIDS Day… yet I am keenly aware all the time, but it is usually shoved to the deepest recesses of my mind.
I was at work yesterday grabbing a coffee when an man asks me for a smoke and politely asks if he can sit at my table. Friendly conversation ensues for a bit when all of a sudden he asks if I am British. I was quiet for what seemed like eternity and just chuckled. I was pretty much suprised. Now this was a new one to add to my list of nationalities. People often asked me in casual conversation, “are you (insert country/nationality here)?” I guess my intonation or accent in English may sound probably off to the common ear… but unfortunately, I cannot say much about that because I don’t get a chance to hear my own voice… but I imagine it must sound interesting.
