Beejeebers

In the next six months, I have to collect approximately 40 CPE units. Why I need to do that is, never mind, not your business really. Suffice it to say it’s not as easy as it sounds.

The value given to the various courses offered seems arbitrary & capricious. Thankfully, most can be found online.

Three years ago I found myself traveling all over Cambridge & Boston, attending everything from a course using a pirate treasure hunt to teach organization skills to one that scared the bejeeber out of me.

My bejeeber is normally rather fearless but if yours saw what I did, it can be guaranteed similar flight.

WordPress for Android

sgtret — Tue, 22 Mar 2011 03:32:57 +0000

I am not sure when WordPress for Android was installed on my HTC Evo. While browsing the WP site I saw a link to the app and quickly downloaded it only to find it already installed.

This means I am installing apps in my sleep. Is this one of the signs of Internet addiction? I bet there is an App For That! (uh-oh…)

This Close to 60!

Tomorrow is my 60th birthday. So far only one of my friends has given me a gag age-related gift having to do with being a “boomer. ”

The rest have to do with an upcoming visit to DC. Tickets to the Newsium & the Smithsonian as well as research material like the K. St. Guide to Congress & the Moleskine Guide to DC.

In some other dimension I may be that thoughtful but not this one.

Another side of showing my age is an increase in the number of computer related age-ist acts.

I’ve learned to take advantage of them. “No, sonny, I don’t know how to get this to work; could you do it for me?” It makes me feel like Tom Sawyer at the picket fence.

Snow Fairies?

A friend just commented to me on facebook after I complained about MORE SNOW! She said I should look at it as the snow fairies come to bring light into my life.

The author Jim Butcher recently commented on Twitter regarding fairies. As for snow fairies, he & I are in total agreement.

There’s an App For That!

Found the Android app for WordPress. This will hopefully allow the WP blogs in the grazing series to be kept up to date.
