net scrap - 2000-04-08
So phase one of what will be my final website redesign is in place. Remember that page where you came from to get here? Go back there, and do not be ignorant and bookmark this page. Bookmark the index page. Go there everyday, because once a week, something is liable to change.
Apparently the new homepage looks like bullsheisse on some browsers... I really have no urge to try and figure out how to fix it. I mean, it looks good on mine, and I'm mostly doing this for myself... Now, if I wasn't such a perfectionist.
Here's my story: I hate Netscape. Don't ask me why, because I don't really know. Honestly, I haven't used it since 1995. Back then, we had a falling out. Netscape crashed, I considered getting a piercing, employees at my ISP rolled joints... it was just a big, huge ugly scene.
And then today, I went to download Netscape, and learned to my horror that it was 18MB of hell. I decided against waiting that long. There must be an easier way. Maybe somebody will tell me what exactly is wrong, and I can quickly change the code, and never have to bother that someone again, since this IS my final redesign and all...

I have to spend my day tomorrow working, and doing some other potentially annoying things. It is sad, really, as there is stuff I want to do, and people I want to see, but...
I really wish I could spend my day as follows:
Wake up and go to church, simply because I need to go.
Spend the rest of the afternoon getting massaged and loosened up by a large Dutch woman, while I talk to Kim for hours on a black rotary phone. Maybe I'd smoke a pipe, too...
And then I'd try sushi for dinner, and drink something that is not a martini, yet still has class and a pleasing taste, out of a martini glass.
I'd drive my new car to, umm, Southampton, where it would be warm, yet breezy, and the beach would be deserted. The sun would set, and the stars would be plentiful. Ideally I'd do this with Kim, but she's very busy... Maybe my dog, but he's kind of, umm, dead... Maybe I would have just as much fun and enlightenment by myself.
Then I'd come home, and I'd design another portion of my website, and it would display perfectly on Netscape.
Maybe I'd watch Apocalypse Now before bed, too...
You know, I am capable of achieving EVERY, SINGLE one of those mini-dreams... except, I have to work tomorrow.
Well, maybe in the summer, then.
