Dragging myself out of the Winter Blues.

Circle Takes the Square - Eleven Owls Have Eyes

I was going to scan new images for my scan site, and then found out that my scanner doesn't work with Vista. I've been finding little annoyances like this for the past few weeks I've had Vista and it's frustrating. Of course, I didn't pay for it or anything so I'm not fuming that it sucks so bad. Anyway, I found this fix which shows how to use the XP drivers/software for hp scanners on Vista. Pretty cool that I don't need to actually buy a new scanner, which is what greedy HP recommended.


Okay, so Converge is playing here in March and even though we just saw them last year, I'm ecstatic. We bought our tickets already since it will definitely sell out. Since I've lived in Buffalo, not many bands that I like have played, and it's a shame because Buffalo is the second largest city in New York. It's unfair, but I guess bands don't want to drive here or something. Darkest Hour is playing in (I think) February, which will be a treat because I used to be very much into them, especially as a teenager, and yet I've never seen them live. I don't know what they've done recently, but hopefully they didn't go the way Every Time I Die went a few years ago. rofl Metalcore is a tricky thing, folks.


My cat has been chewing on USB cords lately. He wakes me up at night, trying to climb on the computer, and last night he knocked my ipod off the desk. I've read about animals chewing on wires, and it's scary because what if he chewed on the tv cord while it's plugged in or something? I mean, couldn't that potentially kill him?


I know I said I was going to post more often, and it's harder than I thought it'd be. It's not quite a chore, but it's not as fun as it used to be. I'd really love to be passionate about web design and blogging again. Has anyone used Wordpress 2.7? The admin panel is totally weird. It's cleaner... but at the same time, I'm very confused. confused WP has used the older interface (top-heavy navigation) from the beginning, and this is looking more CMS-like now. I haven't made up my mind about it yet.
