Monday, September 18

Things not done this weekend:
1. No code written on any personal projects; Teller and Pneutopia languish.
2. No web design done, so nosuch.org and clanlord.net still look the same.
3. Failed at making an AppleScript CGI, because I must be a moron.

Things done:
1. Went into the office, to try and redeem myself, since my code output has been less than optimal there.
2. Cleaned the bird cage.
3. Stowed my collection of servers in a more habitat-friendly way.
4. Did laundry.
5. Played too much Half-Life.
6. Set up some new clanlord.net sub-sites, for Noah and Sala Dragon.
7. Saw my wife.

Sure, #7 seems sort of odd to list, but since we're getting separated and her and I live in different apartments, it begins to make sense. It also is probably the reason why I had no funny or inspired anecdotes to post over the weekend. Unlike most people getting separated, we still care about each other, but seeing her is hard, since we are in an early phase of transitioning to separate lives. Very early phase. This is one fairy tale without a happy ending, and it really, really stinks. Sometimes I wish my wife didn't love me so much, since I certainly don't deserve it.

I've noticed I always use the phrase "getting separated" instead of "getting divorced" because the latter seems so hostile and angry. The end result will be the same, though. Odd how certain words have seem to have power.
