Peanut Butter Dragon Time

George RR Mar­tin just announced today that he’s close. Close enough that his pub­lisher is giv­ing another release date:

TUESDAY, JULY 122011

And yes, he acknowl­edged all the slipped dead­lines of the past, but promised it’s dif­fer­ent this time. I, for one, am ready to take this abu­sive hus­band back into my house. And I’ll start by re-​reading A Game of Thrones. I was plan­ning on wait­ing until the begin­ning of April to re-​read it so every­thing would be as fresh as pos­si­ble for the HBO series, but I fig­ure in a month, I could prob­a­bly run through the whole series and back again.

Any­way, time to head down to the base­ment and dig up that book.

Late Again

I’m start­ing to sound like a cer­tain white rab­bit. This will be to make up for yes­ter­day, and I’ll post some­thing else tonight. Need to set an alarm for myself or some­thing so I can make sure I incor­po­rate post­ing into my daily routine.

When I moved out to SF, I told myself that I would do some free­lance web work to sup­ple­ment my sav­ings while I looked for job. That never really hap­pened. Most of the jobs I saw were either low-​paying and spammy or just a bit beyond my tech­ni­cal prowess. I really need to take some classes or just set­tle down with some books and refresh myself. I want to get a browser-​based game going by the end of this year. Doesn’t have to be a huge hit, but just run­ning smoothly.

Any­way, I just started work­ing on a web­site for Judy T yes­ter­day. It seemed sim­ple enough on paper, she wanted me to cus­tomize a Word­Press install for her. Then I got started and real­ized that her host­ing plan was ter­ri­ble and doesn’t even allow FTP access. Luck­ily, there’s a file man­ager plug-​in I can use from within Word­Press, but i’s way too cum­ber­some to keep using it for minor tweaks. This will be interesting.

Any­one else inter­ested in Word­Press help? I do .org and .com now. :)
