For a long time now a friend of mine has been trying to talk me into using this thing called Moveable Type. So, I looked at it and tried to see what I thought of it. I liked the idea of it a whole lot, it makes updates incredibly easy, almost too easy in fact, but for some unknown reason I couldn't figure it out. The other night I was bored, and was bullied into looking at it. And amazingly enough, I seem to have sorted it out just fine. Well, fine enough anyway. I still have a few questions.
The main one being, how the hell does one install this beautiful thing? I've downloaded it and I've got the install instructions open in a web browser but I haven't got to the actual installing process quite yet. Not because I can't figure it out, but because I can't be bothered to do it yet. I'm lazy. In fact, I was actually told earlier today that I was too lazy to even cook myself dinner. Apparently I'm completely transparent. ;) (Though for the record I did cook dinner, and it was incredibly good.) The other questions I have can be answered easily enough because my friend gave me somewhere to play till I sorted everything out. I just need to actually take the time to do it. Sometime this weekend I guess.
For the first time in a while I've got a weekend off. In fact, I've got three days off in a row. I have no idea what I'm going to do to keep myself busy, but I'm sure I'll come up with something. Last night the mall was even closed early due to bad weather, so my long weekend was made even longer by a few hours. Hooray! However, when I arrived home I found that not only had the road into our street not been plowed but neither had our driveway. So, my decision was that I'd go down and park in the visitors parking area, because that spot seemed to be clear. In fact, it wasn't clear at all, The road part of it was, but the spots were never plowed, not even when they eventually came to plow the driveways. So, as I tried to park in one of the spots I got stuck. Which was annoying. I didn't have any problem getting out once I'd gone home for a shovel, but still it was annoying. I managed to get myself out of the parking spot and I parked my car illegally (well, even more illegally) on the road. I understand that the road into our street has still not been plowed, and likely won't be. Though, it's deep enough to rub the bottom of my car when I drive over it I'd hope to hell that eventually they'll come and clear it. Plus, it's snowing outside again.
Because it's so cold outside and because the snow seems like it'll never stop, I've decided to spend my three days off inside. It's warm inside, I don't need to wear a coat and the only reason I'd need to shovel anything is if I wanted to see the floor in my closet. (ha! Actually, I've cleaned everything up today, so the floor is actually quite visible, tomorrow when there's natural light again I'll even run the vacuum around...the house that is, not my closet exclusively. Oh, what an exciting weekend I've got planned.
