Got up at 6:30 this morning and walked around Lake Calhoun. There were a lot of people out that early. I went to work at 10:30 until about 5. I'm going to do a couple more hours now and then probably most of the day tomorrow.

Well, I've been working most of the morning on completing this site. It seems to be coming together alright. I added the contact and about links at the top of the page and added the wallpaper gallery. Will do more later. I'm hungry as h and need to eat now.
The Electric Fetus was having 20% sale on all cd's today. So, I got some really great stuff:
Wayne Shorter "Footprints Live"
Coltrane "Live at Birdland"
Two Uri Caine cd's.

I've been fighting off an odd tension headache all day. It seems to finally be giving up.
Hungry. Want to eat out. Nobody around to go with. Tuna sandwich.

WaSP, phase II is ready to sting.

This morning I woke up at 4am with a terrible headache and pains in my neck. I wish I could figure out what triggers these headaches. It sucks so bad to wake up like that. I thought I was going to have to call out sick from work, but it got better by 7am with the help of some pills.

Overload. Overload. Overload.
I just upgraded to digital cable. I have about 100 more channels than anyone should be allowed to have and I love it.

Well, I'm a little pissed off today. See, they're painting the balconies on my apartment building and to do that the painters need to come through each apartment. I'm not normally paranoid about the maintenance guy coming in to fix stuff, but the painters are contractors/strangers.
Today, I swear I noticed new paint on one of my fan plugs, which means they used my fan. Not a huge deal, but now I'm freaked out wondering if the guy used my bathroom, tv, xbox or anything else.
Now I'm wondering if I should call the apartment manager and insist that she let me know when they are going to finish up so that I can be here. The only reason I wouldn't do that is the same reason I don't send food back at restaurants: "No complaints, no spit in your food".

Are you kidding me? This game looks sick.

Leave it to A List Apart. There's finally a Pickle Jar Theory that we can all take seriously.

The power to my entire apartment building has gone out twice in the past 48 hours. I'm glad I have a few of these. Now if they could only supply backup power to the garage door opener...

Created this little diddy for a guy on a newsgroup today. He wanted a pop up window that would only load about once in every ten page views. So I created this script that he could call in the body tag using the 'onload' event.
<script language="JavaScript">
function randomPop() {
//created by craig vanderschaegen 5.26.02
var randomNumber=Math.round((Math.random()*9)+1);
if (randomNumber == 3) {
var url = "http://www.neongreen.com/pop.html";
var winName="randomPop";
window.open(url ,winName,'width=320,height=240')
}
}
</script>
I'm not positive if this is the best way to do this, but I had fun coding it and the guy seemed to be happy with it.

Just got home from seeing Star Wars Episode II. I didn't hate it, but I definately didn't love it. I think it was better than Episode I, but I'm still not too excited about this new Star Wars series. Maybe I'm missing something.
