Why does rootbeer foam up like that when you put a few scoops of vanilla ice cream into it? Alternately, why does rootbeer foam up like that when you pour it over a few scoops of vanilla ice cream?
Such perplexing questions…

falling back asleep

Filed under: random — hold fast @ 6:49 pm

I slept unusually well last night. before getting to sleep, i read a book that i hadn’t looked at in a few years, In Watermelon Sugar by Richard Brautigan. It’s “a story of love and betrayal that takes place in an extraordinary environment where the sun shines a different color every day.” It’s a lovely little book, just the sort of thing you can digest in a single sitting, or, as i did, just before bed.
Strange dreams again last night, nonetheless. i sleep too long lately, just to catch the last of those most-intense dreams, the ones you have right before waking, after a good long sleep. Maybe it was the book; read it, and let me know if it gives you interesting dreams as well.

blogging is taking over my life… but what an education!

oh capybara! with tongue lodged firmly in cheek, i mock my my new htmlbloggertagCSSjava learning obsession. i’m spending far too much time trying to make my blogs do tricks. Did you ever notice how one bloghack help file ends with, “Modifying this feature is left as an exercise for the reader” What kind of horrible tease is that?
Walk me through a page of cut’n’paste, then leave me gasping like a fish out of water? >span class=throw me a friggin bone>/h2/! Oh crap, i’m gonna hafta spend some time in the library for this one, aren’t i?
