And it’s all FREE!!!
Does anyone else experience issues trying to use MSN Messenger via Trillian? I’ve upgraded to the latest version (3.1 Pro), but it still drops that particular connection all the time and I can’t find any good explanations why. Is there a port that I’m supposed to be forwarding or something maybe?
ICQ, Yahoo and AIM all seem to work fine…
Kind of like catching wind of people saying good things about you behind your back, sometimes it’s kinda nice to find out when complete strangers have been linking to one of your websites. In going through the server logs for comedic-genius.com tonight (which I almost never do), I found one of the more prominent Disney World news blogs linking to my gallery from Epcot. There are some good photos in there! 🙂

…which reminds me – I need to go through my latest pictures from Animal Kingdom one of these nights…
I don’t think I can imagine a better place to spend a Tuesday afternoon than the auto repair shop. $270 down the tubes for a new alternator, plus one wasted vacation day – good stuff!
w00t – new userpics!!!

Today was a good day. Got a veritable boatload of stuff done before noon this morning (cleaning, etc…), so I wouldn’t come home to too much of a mess, then went over to Animal Kingdom to check out the Passholder Preview of Expedition Everest. The lady next to me seemed to do enough screaming for the both of us (…it’s a rollercoaster, by the way…) – I, myself, was still a little tipsy by the time the thing ended, though! Intensity probably compares to any other Disney rollercoaster – Big Thunder Mtn., Splash Mtn., etc… – and really, that’s fine because I couldn’t handle much more than that anyways (sorry, Busch Gardens…). Nonetheless, the attention to detail from the waiting line to the scenery on the coaster itself is immaculate as usual – I’ll never cease to be amazed by how much they put into even the most mundane of details. The “whole new world” effect alone makes it worth the admission price to me.
Also, it’s kind of weird now to have a giant, Himalayan mountain in the background of half of my pictures from around the park. Meh…
Anyways, spent the rest of the afternoon just walking around the trails, looking at animals and such. I can’t remember the last time I actually went to a zoo, so it was a nice change of pace. When the park closed, I went and had pizza with Kim, who I still can’t believe I hadn’t seen in over a year and a half. It’s kind of weird to think that she was one of the first people to welcome me to Florida, aside from Michael, that is. My how the time flies…
I’ve got a feeling that tomorrow’s going to be a busy day, but for the first time in a while, I actually feel like I was somewhat productive this weekend. I was up before noon on both days, my kitchen doesn’t look like the catastophe that it normally resembles at this point, and I even spent some time outside! What is this world coming to???
Why can’t I find any creative minds that have any sense of responsibility to their work?
It seems like for every creative venture that I try to explore with another person, I end up doing all of the work and/or pulling my hair out trying to “motivate” them, while their interests opt to come and go as it suits them (or their resumes). I dream big and can’t do everything by myself, but I always end up cutting things sort or eventually killing the project altogether because people are just fucking lazy. I can only imagine how some of my ideas past could’ve turned out, if only I’d had another equally ambitious person involved to help carry their share of the load.
It’s not fair that I can’t dream outside of the box because I can’t depend on people.

This guy will never see his dreams come true, but it’s still scary to see people “thinking” like this…
