7 Days

So far, so good. Technically, I missed Friday, but posted double on Saturday. I had a long day at work and wanted to spend the evening with my wonderful daughter and wife.

Also, my blog's clock is set to Irish time still. I haven't had the heart to change it, so some posts appear to be from the day after I actually post them according to Vancouver time. I'm only going to really worry about this on November 30th, when I'll make sure the post goes up on that date according to the clock to keep everything together in November.

Friday evening was also spent watching The Fast and The Furious, which was... Interesting. Claire knew nothing about it, so she was confused and mystified for most of the feature. I enjoyed it, but spent a bunch of it playing AlphaBear on my iPad, and just looking up during the racing and action scenes. I think I got all the best parts.

This coming week is going to be busy as well, as I'm working long days every day, apart from Wednesday, which is Rememberance Day here, and a public holiday. It'll be an interesting challenge to maintain some level of posting, even if it is short and rambling, like this one!

More Pictures, More Updates

I posted a bunch of new photos on Flickr today, but also played with some of the new additions to the site that they have introduced since last I tried tampering with my sets and layout.

New photos include food, friends and funny stuff. And I have two Collections now as well, Toys and BBQ, making use of the brand new feature.

Flickr continues to prove it's awesomeness, and I still love it. It's already been worth ever cent I spent on it, and I have another year to go before I have to renew it, so that's great!!

HTML Helped

Well, super thanks to Cian for the much needed HTML help. I swear I scanned over that whole template looking for something to jump out at me. It's the first time I've really needed help with HTML. Now, I have no training in it, but any time I've wanted to do something that required it, a little light reseach got me on track and the task accomplished. I'm quite proud of that fact.

Anyway, now the body of my blog is, as you can see, slightly wider. This just gives me a little leg-room, so to speak.

Thanks again.

Also, glad to see you're back up and... well... updating! I feel we need to support each other in this blogging venture thingy! We're not the best for updating sometimes. Karen put us both, and many others I'm sure, to shame before the Christmas with an update on a daily basis! Amazing.

I'm going to attempt to do that myself for a month some time. Some time. But not now.

Updates

And not the boring kind where I say something like "Sorry I haven't posted in weeks, but I promise to post more often from now on" and you don't hear from me again. No, this is a quick post on some slight, slight changes I've made to the blog itself.

Most notibly I have changed the side panel. Now the whole thing is themed! Everything is "Terrific". Nice.

Um... actually, I think that's about it for the obvious changes. In the background, I've gone and updated to the new formats that allow easier modifications to be made, so that's cool. Also, I updated some of my links. A few months late, but now kindle acctually links to her new blog! I've been reading it since she changed, just never realised I hadn't changed the link. Silly me. As well as that, there have been a few removals and additions to the groups, so check 'em out.

That's it for tonight. Beddy time for me.

The Big 5-0-0!

No. Not 500 posts! That's crazy talk. Though this post is my 76th, so I am 3/4s of the way to my centennial post!

Nope, I now have over 500 photos in my Flickr page! Though a lot of those are of toys rather than friends, I think over half are in fact of real people. So I'm not too embarrassed! That said, however, the actually 500th photo was indeed of an action figure!

Blogger Update

Though I doubt those of you reading will see many changes, Blogger has got into a Beta update, and I, ever the adventurous one, went along for the ride and swapped over. I can now add tags to my posts to make particular topics easier to find.

Er... so far, that's it. Oh well. If other cool stuff comes to light, I'll let my loyal fans know about it!
