Ok, not so ancient. But open long enough to be a tad vinigery. Ah well, it went well with my novel. The background is my new home, a place I a buying from my grandmother. It needs some work, and a bit more moving in to do, but it’s homey, and it’s going to be a great hang out for my friends. Also, Sleepovers!
The kitchen is large enough for Z Chef to do his work, the shed large enough for l’Animator to have some working room, the office large enough for the Dude to have his computers, the patio large enough for get togethers, and the lawn just right for a pet duck (I’m thinking Millicent?).
Next step, wireless interweb!
Pictures are very important on Facebook and Myspace. But in both places, I don’t have incredible exposure, and photos are only really viable by one’s friends. So I prefer to have my photos on Flickr. Flickr is a Yahoo property (bleh) that has great search and tagging abilities. If you don’t have an account, get one. My paid account literally allows me unlimited uploads. Anyway, enough selling.

I know I’ve been out of touch, but I’d love to get back in touch with everyone that I haven’t seen in forever.

I’d like to give people a little update to the world of Seth if they’d like to read it. And for those of you who don’t really know me, this will be a great introduction.

Ya know, sometimes the blogs I read primarily for information, are down right entertaining as well. Which is why one blogs I assume.
See that little guy in the photo? It’s a mother effing bedbug. I thought they were made up. You know, like “sleep tight don’t let the bedbugs bite?” Well, turns out, they are not made up. They are very real and very hard to get rid of and apparently are infesting Southern California.
I’ve been following the Chumby phenomenon for some time now. If you haven’t been, the chumby is a plush little gadget with a lcd screen that displays flash widgets pulled from the interwebs. It is; Open Source, running linux, and really neat. It has; usb, wifi, flash, an accelerometer, touch screen speakers, headphone jack, etc. And if you can’t guess, I want one bad.
